Q6N3RP

Triacs Overview

The Littelfuse Q6N3RP is a surface-mount logic-level TRIAC in the LXNX series, housed in a COMPAK-3 (SOT-223) package. It features a 600 V repetitive peak off-state voltage and a 1 A RMS on-state current. The device supports four-quadrant triggering with a maximum gate trigger current of 10 mA and a gate trigger voltage of 1.3 V. It exhibits a low holding current of 5 mA and an on-state voltage of 1.6 V. The component operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and includes a main terminal 2 connection for efficient thermal management.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Logic-level sensitivity enables direct drive from standard digital logic outputs without additional amplification circuitry.
• Four-quadrant operation ensures reliable triggering across all combinations of gate and main terminal polarities.
• COMPAK-3 surface mount package provides compact footprint and optimized thermal dissipation through Main Terminal 2.

Triacs Applications

• Solid state relay switching circuits
• Lighting control systems
• Motor speed control applications

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer designation, as Teccor Electronics also produces the Q6N3RP under the same part number. Confirm the datasheet source matches the required electrical specifications before procurement. Ensure the ordering suffix corresponds to the desired tape and reel quantity or lead-free status if applicable.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a surface-mount TRIAC with low gate drive requirements is necessary. The 600 V rating suits general-purpose AC loads, while the 1 A current limit defines the maximum load capacity. Verify that the PCB layout accommodates the COMPAK-3 package dimensions and thermal pad requirements for adequate heat sinking.

Triacs Part Context

This device belongs to the LXNX family of logic-level TRIACs designed for modern power control applications. The series emphasizes compatibility with microcontroller outputs, reducing system complexity. The Q6N3RP specifically utilizes the COMPAK-3 form factor, balancing current handling capabilities with space-constrained design requirements.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Cross-referencing requires matching the 600 V, 1 A, SOT-223 package, and logic-level gate characteristics precisely.
