DESCRIPTION

The BTA20 BW/CW triac family are high perform-

ance glass passivated chips technology.

The snubberless concept offer suppression of RC

network and it is suitable for application such as

phase control and static switching on inductive or

resistive load.

Thanks to their clip assembly technique, they

provide a superior performance in surge current

handling capabilities.

By using an internal ceramic pad, the BTA series

provides
