QV8025RH5TP

Triacs Overview

The QV8025RH5TP is a TRIAC manufactured by IXYS, designed for high-voltage AC switching applications. It features an 800 V repetitive peak off-state voltage and a continuous on-state current rating of 25 A. The device is housed in a TO-220-3 package, suitable for through-hole mounting. Key electrical characteristics include a gate trigger voltage maximum of 1.3 V and a gate trigger current maximum of 100 mA. It operates within a junction temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and supports a non-repetitive surge current of 200 A.

Triacs Feature Summary

• High voltage blocking capability with 800 V off-state rating
• Robust 25 A continuous on-state current handling
• Sensitive gate triggering for efficient control circuitry
• Standard TO-220-3 through-hole packaging for thermal management

Triacs Applications

• Industrial motor speed control systems
• Solid-state relay modules
• Lighting dimmer circuits
• Heating element regulation

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix RH5TP against the official IXYS datasheet to confirm pinout configuration and thermal pad specifications. Ensure that the requested quantity matches standard tube or reel packaging requirements defined by the manufacturer. Cross-reference the RoHS compliance status with current environmental regulations before finalizing procurement orders.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when an 800 V rating is required for AC load switching. The 25 A current capacity suits moderate power applications. Consider the TO-220-3 package for ease of heatsinking. Evaluate gate trigger parameters against the driving logic levels to ensure reliable turn-on without excessive gate drive current.

Triacs Part Context

This part belongs to the IXYS TRIAC family, specifically optimized for general-purpose AC power control. It complements other discrete thyristors in the portfolio by offering a balance between voltage rating and current handling in a standard industrial package. The product line focuses on reliability in harsh electrical environments typical of industrial automation.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes from IXYS such as the QV8025 series variants with different suffixes. Compare critical parameters like IGT and VGT with alternative manufacturers' parts ensuring voltage and current ratings are equal or higher.

Triacs FAQ

What is the maximum gate trigger current for this TRIAC?

The maximum gate trigger current (IGT) is specified as 100 mA in the official datasheet.

Is the QV8025RH5TP suitable for high-frequency applications?

It is designed for standard line frequencies (50/60 Hz). High-frequency operation may require derating due to switching losses not fully detailed for MHz ranges.
