L6006D8RP

Triacs Overview

The Littelfuse L6006D8RP is a bidirectional triac designed for surface-mount applications in the TO-252-3 (D-PAK) package. It features an RMS on-state current of 6 A and a rated repetitive off-state voltage of 600 V. The device exhibits a maximum on-state voltage of 1.6 V and a gate trigger current ranging from 10 mA to 20 mA, classifying it as a sensing-level triac. Operating temperatures range from -40°C to +150°C, with a maximum leakage current of 20 µA at VDRM.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Sensitive gate structure enabling direct interfacing with low-power control logic
• High thermal stability supporting operation up to 150°C junction temperature
• Robust construction suitable for high-reliability AC power switching

Triacs Applications

• Solid-state relays requiring compact surface-mount packaging
• AC motor speed control circuits
• Lighting dimmer modules

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'D8' against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to confirm gate sensitivity characteristics and pinout configuration. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required tape-and-reel or cut-tape packaging format for automated assembly processes.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a 600V blocking capability and 6A continuous current are required in a D-PAK footprint. Compare gate trigger currents against the driving circuit's output capabilities to ensure reliable turn-on without excessive drive power.

Triacs Part Context

This part belongs to the Littelfuse Lxx06xx series of sensing triacs. These devices are engineered for general-purpose AC power control where moderate current handling and sensitive gate drive compatibility are prioritized within a standard surface-mount thermal profile.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other Littelfuse L6006 variants such as L6006D6TP or L6006D6RP. Verify that alternative packages like tubes or different gate sensitivities meet the specific design constraints before substitution.
