Product specification
12A TRIACS
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
BTA/BTB12-800B
Available either in through-hole or surface-mount packages, the BTA/BTB12 - 800B 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 series) are specially recommended for use on
inductive loads, thanks to their high commutation performances. By using an internal ceramic pad,
the BTA series provides voltage insulated tab (rated at 2500V RMS) complying with UL standards.
