Table 1: Main Features

DESCRIPTION

Available either in through-hole or surface-mount

packages, the BTA12, BTB12 and T12 triac series

is suitable for general purpose AC switching. They

can be used as an ON/OFF function in applica-

tions such as static relays, heating regulation, in-

duction motor starting circuits... or for phase

control operation in light dimmers, motor speed

controllers,...

The snubberless versions (BTA/BTB...W and T12

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

2500V

RMS

) complying with UL standards (File ref.:

E81734).
