Thyristors, especially TRIACs, such as BT137X-600,127, are widely used for AC applications. In these applications, the TRIAC becomes an essential element for controlling and managing power flow, particularly for domestic and industrial systems. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of BT137X-600,127.

Application Field

The BT137X-600,127 is a silicon bidirectional sensitive TRIAC, which can be used in AC switching, snubber circuits, AC motor controllers, lamp dimmers, motor speed control, static relays, and home appliances. In terms of switching, the device is able to bear high overload capability, and multiple zero-crossing detection in order to efficiently control current transition. It is also able to perform high-speed triggering, which makes it suitable for time-varying load applications. In terms of snubber circuits, the device is capable of effectively controlling overvoltage and preventing damages due to the EMI conducted or radiated. Additionally, its zero-crossing capability makes it a perfect element for AC motor control and lamp dimmers, with the ability to properly regulate botht the speed and the intensity of the latter. In static relays and home appliances, the BT137X-600,127 is especially well-suited for any application where it is necessary to have a stable response over time. It features highintegrity, thus allowing a reliable operation in these conditions.

Working Principle

The BT137X-600,127 works mainly by biasing its gate terminal in order to control the flow of electrical current. Its gate is driven by a positive voltage which determines when the TRIAC switches on and off. As the gate voltage increases, the TRIAC turns on and the current starts to flow through it. When the gate voltage goes back to zero, the TRIAC turns off, halting the current flow again. The triac holds off even in the event of a negative gate voltage, which makes the BT137X-600,127 especially reliable for AC operations. When a current flows through the device and reaches a certain value, the TRIAC breaks down and enters a conducting region, where it allows the current to remain flowing until the gate voltage reaches zero – at which point the TRIAC turnsoff. This intrinsic characteristic makes the BT137X-600,127 highly reliable even in the event of an overload.

The BT137X-600,127 is a popular and reliable TRIAC, thanks to its high sensitivity and overload handling capabilities. In addition to AC switching and snubber circuit applications, it is also commonly used for AC motor control, lamp dimmers, static relays, and home appliances. The BT137X-600,127 works by biasing its gate terminal, allowing it to switch between on and off states when the gate voltage reaches zero. This characteristic makes the device an ideal choice for a wide range of AC applications.
