DESCRIPTION

Available either in through-hole or surface-mount

packages, the BTA08, BTB08 and T8 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 T8

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
