L6X8E3RP

Triacs Overview

The Littelfuse L6X8E3RP is a bidirectional triac belonging to the LxX8Ex series, designed for through-hole mounting in TO-92-3 packages. It features an RMS on-state current of 800 mA and a rated repetitive off-state voltage (VDRM) of 600 V. The device exhibits a maximum holding current of 5 mA and requires a gate trigger current of 3 mA with a gate trigger voltage of 2 V. On-state voltage is specified at 1.6 V, while off-state leakage current is limited to 10 uA under VDRM conditions. Non-repetitive peak currents are rated at 8.3 A and 10 A. Operating temperatures range from -65 C to +110 C.

Triacs Feature Summary

• High-voltage blocking capability suitable for demanding AC switching applications
• Sensitive gate drive characteristics enabling efficient control circuit integration
• Robust thermal performance across extended industrial temperature ranges

Triacs Applications

• AC power control circuits requiring high voltage isolation
• Solid-state relay implementations
• Lighting dimmer modules

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix RP against official Littelfuse documentation to confirm reel packaging requirements. Ensure the selected component matches the exact electrical ratings and package dimensions listed in the datasheet. Cross-reference manufacturer part numbers to avoid substitution errors during assembly.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a 600 V rating is required for AC load switching. Compare the 800 mA RMS current capacity against load requirements. Verify that the TO-92-3 package fits the PCB layout constraints. Confirm compatibility with the intended gate drive voltage levels.

Triacs Part Context

This triac is part of the LxX8Ex family from Littelfuse, which provides standardized thyristor solutions for general-purpose power control. The series offers consistent electrical characteristics across different voltage ratings, facilitating design scalability within industrial and consumer electronic systems.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Consult official Littelfuse cross-reference guides for verified substitutes. Ensure any replacement maintains the 600 V VDRM and 800 mA It(RMS) specifications. Verify package compatibility and thermal performance equivalence before implementation.
