L6X5RP

Triacs Overview

The Littelfuse L6X5RP is a bidirectional triac belonging to the L-X series, designed for surface-mount applications in the Compak-3 package. It features an RMS on-state current of 800 mA and a rated repetitive off-state voltage of 600 V. The device supports non-repetitive on-state currents of 8.3 A and 10 A, with a maximum holding current of 10 mA. Gate triggering requirements are specified at 2 V and 5 mA. Operating temperatures range from -40°C to +110°C, and the on-state voltage is 1.6 V.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Surface-mount construction in a compact Compak-3 package for automated assembly
• Bidirectional switching capability suitable for AC power control circuits
• High thermal stability with operation up to +110°C

Triacs Applications

• AC motor speed control systems
• Solid-state relay output stages
• Lighting dimmer circuits

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific Littelfuse datasheet revision and RoHS/REACH compliance status before finalizing design integration. Confirm that the Compak-3 footprint matches the target PCB layout. Ensure gate drive circuitry meets the 5 mA trigger current requirement for reliable switching under all operating conditions.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a 600 V blocking voltage and 800 mA continuous current are required in a small SMD form factor. Compare against other L-X series variants if different current ratings or package styles are needed. Verify that the 10 mA holding current does not cause unintended turn-off in low-load scenarios.

Triacs Part Context

The L6X5RP is part of Littelfuse's L-X series of thyristors, which focuses on providing robust power control solutions in compact packages. This series is engineered for high reliability in consumer and industrial electronics where space constraints and performance consistency are critical design factors.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Consult official Littelfuse substitution guides for verified equivalents. Generic cross-references may differ in gate sensitivity or thermal characteristics. Validate any alternative component against the original 600 V rating and Compak-3 pinout compatibility.
