Thyristors - TRIACs

The BT137X-600E,127 is a member of the Thyristors - TRIACs family, which is a class of semiconductor that is widely used in power control applications. Thyristors - TRIACs are a type of Electronic-Switching Devices (ESDs) that work by switching electrical energy on and off to control power in a circuit. They are capable of performing both AC and DC control and typically operate at higher voltages than other ESDs.

What is a TRIAC?

A Triode Alternating Current (TRIAC) is a three- or four-terminal electronic device that is mainly used for controlling electrical power in AC systems. It acts as a switch, allowing current to flow in either direction when voltage is applied in its main terminal. TRIACs are widely used in AC power control applications, such as light dimmers and speed control of AC motors. The BT137X-600E,127 is one such TRIAC device.

Working Principle of a TRIAC

The working principle of a TRIAC is based on the behavior of two oppositely connected SCRs (Silicon Controlled Rectifiers). When the main terminal receives the appropriate voltage, both of the SCRs are triggered, thereby allowing the current to flow from its main terminal to the other two terminals. Once triggered, the SCRs remain “on” until the voltage is reduced below the holding current threshold, or the SCRs can be purposefully switched off by externally removing the current. In addition to controlling the flow of current, TRIACs can also be used to modulate the phase and voltage of the AC waveform.

Applications of BT137X-600E,127

The BT137X-600E,127 is a high voltage, high current TRIAC that is well-suited for power control applications. It is well-suited for dimming and light switching applications, as well as for controlling the speed of AC motors. It has a maximum breakdown voltage of 600V and a maximum IT(AV) rating of 127A, making it well-suited for handling higher currents than other TRIACs. It is also capable of switching on or off rapidly, making it suitable for a wide variety of AC power control applications.

Conclusion

The BT137X-600E,127 is a powerful TRIAC device that is well-suited for AC power control applications.
