QJ6006L5TP

Triacs Overview

The Littelfuse QJ6006L5TP is a bidirectional triac designed for high-temperature applications, housed in an insulated TO-220AB package. It supports a continuous RMS on-state current of 6 A and withstands rated repetitive off-state voltages up to 600 V. The device features a maximum non-repetitive peak on-state current of 120 A and a low on-state voltage of 1.4 V. Gate triggering requirements include a maximum voltage of 1.3 V and current of 50 mA. It operates within a temperature range of -40 °C to +150 °C, with a maximum holding current of 50 mA and off-state leakage current of 10 µA at VDRM.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Insulated TO-220AB package provides electrical isolation for mounting to heat sinks without additional insulators.
• High-temperature capability allows reliable operation in demanding thermal environments up to 150 °C.
• Standard TRIAC configuration offers robust switching performance for AC power control circuits.

Triacs Applications

• Solid-state relays requiring high isolation and thermal stability
• Industrial motor speed control systems
• Lighting dimmer circuits for commercial or industrial loads

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix L5TP against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to confirm insulation class and pinout compatibility. Ensure that the ordered component matches the required voltage and current ratings for the target application circuit. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit components. Confirm RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the final assembly.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a 6 A RMS current rating and 600 V blocking voltage are sufficient for the load. The TO-220AB package is suitable for through-hole mounting where direct heatsinking is required. Consider the gate trigger characteristics to ensure compatibility with the driving logic level. Evaluate thermal management requirements based on the 150 °C maximum junction temperature limit.

Triacs Part Context

This part belongs to the Qxx06xH series from Littelfuse, which focuses on high-temperature standard TRIACs. The series is engineered for applications requiring reliable AC switching under elevated thermal conditions. The QJ6006L5TP specifically integrates the 6 A current handling capability with the insulated TO-220AB form factor.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 6 A RMS, 600 V rating and TO-220AB-3 insulated package. Verify equivalent gate trigger currents and on-state voltages to maintain circuit performance. Check for identical thermal resistance and insulation voltage ratings to ensure safe replacement in existing designs.
