DESCRIPTION
Available either in through-hole or surface-mount
packages, the BTA06 and BTB06 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, in-

duction motor starting circuits... or for phase
control operation in light dimmers, motor speed
controllers,...
The snubberless and logic level versions (BTA/
BTB...W) 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
) complying with UL standards (File ref.:
RMS
E81734).
