Snubberless™, logic level and standard 8 A Triacs

Features

600 to 800 V

Description

Available either in through-hole or surface-mount

packages, the BTA08, BTB08 and T8 triac series

is suitable for general purpose AC switching. They

can be used as an ON/OFF function in

applications such as static relays, heating

regulation, induction motor starting circuits... or

for phase control operation in light dimmers,

motor speed controllers,...

The snubberless versions (BTA/BTB...W and T8

series) are specially recommended for use on

inductive loads, thanks to their high commutation

performances.

Logic level versions are designed to interface

directly with low power drivers such as

microcontrollers.

By using an internal ceramic pad, the BTA series

provides voltage insulated tab (rated at 2500

E81734).
