Description

Available either in through-hole or surface mount

packages, the BTA10, BTB10 and T10xx Triac

series are suitable for general purpose mains

power AC switching. They can be used as

ON/OFF function in applications such as static

relays, heating regulation or induction motor

starting circuit. They are also recommended for

phase control operations in light dimmers and

appliance motors speed controllers.

The Snubberless™ versions (W suffix and T10xx)

are especially recommended for use on inductive

loads, because of their high commutation

performance. By using an internal ceramic pad,

the Snubberless™ series provide an insulated

standards (file reference: E81734).
