Thyristors 15 Amp Standard & 16 Amp Alternistor (High Commutation) Triacs Qxx15xx & Qxx16xHx Series RoHS Description This 15 Amp and 16 Amp bi-directional solid state switch series is designed for AC switching and phase control applications such as motor speed, temperature modulation controls, lighting controls, and static switching relays. Standard type devices normally operate in Quadrants I & III triggered from AC line. Standard alternistor triac components operate with in-phase signals in Quadrants I or III and ONLY unipolar negative gate pulses for Quadrant II or III. The alternistor triac will not operate in Quadrant IV. These are used in circuit applications requiring a high dv/dt capability. Agency Approval Features & Benefits • RoHS Compliant contact bounce that Agency Agency File Number create voltage transients • Glass – passivated E71639* junctions • No contacts to wear * - L Package only • Voltage capability up to out from reaction of switching events 1000 V • Restricted (or limited) RFI • Surge capability up to generation, depending Main Features 200 A on activation point in sine • The L-package has wave Symbol Value Unit an isolation rating of • Requires only a small I 15 or 16 A 2500V T(RMS) RMS gate activation pulse in VDRM/VRRM 400, 600, 800 or 1000 V • Solid-state switching each half-cycle I 10, 20, 35, 50 or 80 mA eliminates arcing or GT (Q1) Applications Schematic Symbol Excellent for AC switching and phase control applications such as heating, lighting, and motor speed controls. MT2 MT1 Typical applications are AC solid-state switches, light dimmers, power tools, lawn care equipment, home/brown goods and white goods appliances. G Alternistor Triacs (no snubber required) are used in applications with extremely inductive loads requiring highest commutation performance. Additional Information Internally constructed isolated packages are offered for ease of heat sinking with highest isolation voltage. Datasheet Resources Samples © 2018 Littelfuse, Inc.
