Q6015L5

Triacs Overview

The Littelfuse Q6015L5 is a single-phase triac designed for AC power control applications. It features a rated RMS on-state current of 15 A and a repetitive peak off-state voltage of 600 V. The device utilizes a JEDEC TO-220AB package with three pins for through-hole mounting. Key electrical parameters include a maximum gate trigger current of 50 mA, a maximum gate trigger voltage of 2 V, and a peak on-state voltage of 1.6 V. The surge current rating is specified at 200 A, while the holding current reaches a maximum of 70 mA. It operates within a temperature range from -40°C to +125°C.

Triacs Feature Summary

• High thermal stability with a maximum junction temperature of 125°C
• Robust surge handling capability for inductive loads
• Low gate sensitivity for direct interfacing with logic drivers

Triacs Applications

• AC motor speed control systems
• Solid-state relays
• Lighting dimmer circuits

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to confirm pinout and isolation requirements. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact voltage and current ratings required for the target circuit design before finalizing procurement.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a 15 A RMS current capacity and 600 V blocking voltage are required in a standard TO-220AB footprint. Consider the 50 mA gate trigger specification for driver compatibility. Verify that the thermal management solution supports the 125°C maximum operating temperature limit under expected load conditions.

Triacs Part Context

This component belongs to the Littelfuse Teccor series of silicon controlled rectifiers. The Q6015L5 variant specifically targets general-purpose AC switching applications requiring moderate current handling. It serves as a discrete semiconductor solution for replacing electromechanical relays in industrial and consumer electronics.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

The Q6015LTTP is an alternative variant within the same family offering similar electrical characteristics but potentially different packaging or manufacturing specifications. Verify pin compatibility and thermal resistance values before substitution.
