T1630-600W

Triacs Overview

The STMicroelectronics T1630-600W is a 16A Snubberless Triac in the ISOWATT220AB package. It features a 600V repetitive peak off-state voltage and a maximum RMS on-state current of 16A at a case temperature of 80°C. The device supports non-repetitive surge currents up to 200A at 50Hz and 218A at 60Hz. Gate trigger current is specified at a maximum of 30mA, with a peak gate current capability of 4A. Operating junction temperature ranges from -40°C to +125°C, while storage temperature spans -40°C to +150°C. Thermal resistance from junction to case is 3.1°C/W.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Snubberless technology designed for high commutation performance on inductive loads
• ISOWATT220AB plastic package providing electrical insulation rated at 2500 Vrms

Triacs Applications

• Vacuum cleaners
• Heating regulation systems

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and packaging configuration against the manufacturer's official documentation before procurement. Confirm that the component meets all required environmental compliance standards, such as RoHS directives, for the intended deployment environment. Ensure thermal management designs align with the specified junction-to-case thermal resistance values to maintain safe operating temperatures during continuous operation.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when an application requires a 16A AC switch with high commutation capabilities suitable for inductive loads. The 30mA gate sensitivity distinguishes it from lower sensitivity variants within the same series. Verify that the system voltage does not exceed the 600V rating and that the thermal design accommodates the specified power dissipation characteristics across the operational temperature range.

Triacs Part Context

This part belongs to the T16xx W series of medium current Triacs manufactured by STMicroelectronics. It shares the Snubberless technology platform with related models like the T1620-600W, differing primarily in gate trigger current specifications. The series is UL certified under file reference E81734 and is designed for general-purpose mains power AC switching applications.
