Q6016RH4

Triacs Overview

The Littelfuse Q6016RH4 is a bidirectional triac belonging to the Qxx16xHx series, designed for power control applications. It features a rated repetitive off-state voltage (VDRM) of 600 V and an on-state RMS current (It RMS) of 16 A. The device exhibits a maximum on-state voltage of 1.6 V and a gate trigger current (Igt) of 35 mA. It operates within a temperature range from -40 °C to +125 °C. Packaged in a TO-220-2 through-hole configuration, it offers high reliability with a holding current maximum of 50 mA and low leakage current.

Triacs Feature Summary

• High thermal stability supporting operation up to +125 °C
• Robust construction suitable for industrial power switching
• Low on-state voltage for efficient power handling

Triacs Applications

• Industrial motor speed control systems
• Solid-state relay implementations
• General AC power regulation circuits

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official Littelfuse documentation to confirm pinout and package variations. Ensure compatibility with existing thermal management designs given the TO-220-2 form factor. Cross-reference datasheet electrical limits with circuit requirements before finalizing component selection.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a 600 V rating and 16 A continuous current capacity are required in a through-hole package. Compare gate trigger characteristics against driver capabilities. Consider thermal resistance values for heatsink sizing in high-duty cycle operations.

Triacs Part Context

This part belongs to the Littelfuse Qxx16xHx family of high-reliability triacs. These devices share common electrical profiles but differ in packaging and minor parameter tolerances. The Q6016RH4 specifically utilizes a TO-220-2 leaded package distinct from surface-mount variants like the NH series.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include the Q6016LH4TP or Q6016NH4RP depending on whether through-hole or surface-mount assembly is preferred. Verify that substitute parts maintain identical voltage and current ratings.
