Q6016LH6

Triacs Overview

The Littelfuse Q6016LH6TP is a bidirectional triac belonging to the Qxx16xHx series, rated for 600 V repetitive off-state voltage and 16 A RMS on-state current. It features a maximum non-repetitive peak on-state current of 200 A and an on-state voltage of 1.6 V. The device operates within a temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C and utilizes a TO-220AB isolated package with three pins. Key gate parameters include a maximum DC gate trigger current of 80 mA and a maximum holding current of 70 mA.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Alternistor technology providing high reliability and robust performance in AC power control applications
• Isolated TO-220AB package design enabling direct mounting to heat sinks without electrical insulation requirements
• High surge current capability suitable for handling inductive loads and hard switching conditions

Triacs Applications

• Solid state relays and motor speed controllers
• Lighting dimmers and phase control circuits
• Heating element regulation in industrial appliances

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official Littelfuse documentation to confirm pinout configuration and isolation specifications. Ensure the ordered part matches the required thermal resistance and voltage ratings for the target application environment. Cross-reference datasheet revisions to confirm compliance with current RoHS and REACH standards before finalizing procurement orders.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a 600 V rating and 16 A continuous current capacity are required in a through-hole isolated package. Consider the 80 mA gate trigger current requirement for driver circuit compatibility. Evaluate thermal management needs based on the 1.6 V on-state voltage drop at full load conditions.

Triacs Part Context

This device is part of the Littelfuse Alternistor TRIAC family, designed for general-purpose AC power switching. The Q6016LH6TP variant specifically offers an isolated flange mount option, distinguishing it from standard TO-220 packages by allowing direct heatsink attachment while maintaining electrical isolation between the terminal and the case.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other 600 V, 16 A TRIACs in isolated TO-220 packages from manufacturers such as STMicroelectronics or WeEn Semiconductors. Verify that replacement parts match the 80 mA gate trigger current and 70 mA holding current specifications to ensure circuit stability.
