Q6006R5

Triacs Overview

The Littelfuse Q6006R5 is a standard Triac belonging to the Qxx06xxH series, designed for general-purpose AC power control applications. It features a 600 V rated repetitive off-state voltage (VDRM) and supports an RMS on-state current (It RMS) of 6 A. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum holding current of 35 mA, a gate trigger voltage of 1.3 V, and a gate trigger current of 35 mA. It exhibits a typical on-state voltage of 1.6 V and a low off-state leakage current of 10 µA at VDRM. The component is housed in an SMTO-263-2 surface-mount package.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Standard switching capability with defined gate sensitivity parameters
• Surface-mount construction for automated assembly integration
• High thermal stability across extended industrial operating temperatures

Triacs Applications

• General AC load switching circuits
• Solid-state relay implementations
• Lighting dimmer controls

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet revision and RoHS compliance status directly with Littelfuse or authorized distributors before finalizing procurement. Confirm that the SMTO-263-2 footprint matches the target PCB design requirements. Ensure that the supply chain source provides original manufacturer packaging to prevent counterfeit components. Cross-reference the part number suffix to confirm the exact reel quantity and tape specifications required for the manufacturing line.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a 6 A RMS current rating and 600 V blocking voltage are sufficient for the application. The 35 mA gate trigger requirement dictates the drive circuit design, necessitating adequate current sourcing from the control logic. Consider the thermal resistance of the SMTO-263-2 package and ensure appropriate heatsinking or copper area allocation on the PCB to maintain junction temperatures within the specified limits during continuous operation.

Triacs Part Context

This Triac belongs to the Qxx06xxH family, which groups devices by their 6 A current handling capability and 600 V voltage rating. The 'R5' suffix typically denotes the specific package type and reel configuration for surface-mount processing. This series serves as a standard solution for replacing older through-hole equivalents in modern compact power electronics designs requiring reliable AC switching.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same series include Q6006NH4RP. Verify that substitute parts maintain identical gate trigger currents and holding currents to ensure compatibility with existing drive circuits without redesign.
