DESCRIPTION
Specifically designed for use in high temperature
environment (found in hot appliances such as
cookers, ovens, hobs, electric heaters, coffee machines...), the new 12 Amps T1235H triacs provide
an enhanced performance in terms of power loss
and thermal dissipation. This allows for optimization of the heatsinking dimensioning, leading to
space and cost effectivness when compared to
electro-mechnical solutions.
Based on ST snubberless technology, they offer
high commutation switching capabilities and high
noise immunity levels. And, thanks to their clip assembly technique, they provide a superior performance in surge current handling.
