BTA06 and BTB06 Series ® 6A TRIACS SNUBBERLESS™, LOGIC LEVEL & STANDARD Table 1: Main Features A2 Symbol Value Unit I 6 A T(RMS) G VDRM/VRRM 600 and 800 V A1 I 5 to 50 mA GT (Q ) 1 A2 DESCRIPTION Available either in through-hole or surface-mount packages, the BTA06 and BTB06 triac series is A1 A1 suitable for general purpose AC switching. They A2G A2G can be used as an ON/OFF function in applica- TO-220AB Insulated TO-220AB tions such as static relays, heating regulation, in- (BTA06) (BTB06) duction motor starting circuits... or for phase control operation in light dimmers, motor speed controllers,... Table 2: Order Codes The snubberless and logic level versions (BTA/ Part Number Marking BTB...W) are specially recommended for use on BTA06-xxxxxRG See page table 8 on inductive loads, thanks to their high commutation BTB06-xxxxxRG page 6 performances. By using an internal ceramic pad, the BTA series provides voltage insulated tab (rated at 2500V ) complying with UL standards (File ref.: RMS E81734).
