September 2007 Rev 9 1/12

BTA12, BTB12, T12xx

12 A Snubberless™, logic level and standard triacs

Features

■ Medium current triac

■ Low thermal resistance with clip bonding

■ Low thermal resistance insulation ceramic for

insulated BTA

■ High commutation (4Q) or very high

commutation (3Q) capability

■ BTA series UL1557 certified (File ref: 81734)

■ Packages are RoHS ( 2002/95/EC) compliant

Applications

ON/OFF or phase angle function in applications

such as static relays, light dimmers and appliance

motors speed controllers.

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

series) are especially recommended for use on

inductive loads, because of their high

commutation performances. The BTA series

provides an insulated tab (rated at 2500 V RMS).

Description

Available either in through-hole or surface-mount

packages, the BTA12, BTB12 and T12xx triac

series is suitable for general purpose mains

power AC switching.
