Thyristors, also called thyristors or thyristor switches, are electrically operated switches comprising four layers of alternating semiconductor materials - p-n junctions. The name of the thyristor may be derived from the combination of two words - "thyratron" and "transistor". Thyratrons are an older type of switch, whereas transistors are solid-state switches.

The TRIACs behave like two SCR’s connected in opposition with their gates connected together. The main advantage of a TRIAC is its bidirectional switching capability allowing them to switch in either direction by varying the amplitude of the gate signal.

BTA06-800CWRG is one of the types of TRIACs. It is suited for general purpose AC power control applications. One of its main features is that it can work with supply voltages up to 600V, meaning it can be used in circuits where the electrical signals are more intense.

The BTA06-800CWRG has three main pins: MT1, MT2 and G, which correspond to Main Terminal 1, Main Terminal 2 and Gate, respectively. Its principal function is to serve as a controllable switch between MT1 and MT2, connecting them when it is triggered. This behavior is the same that it has been previously described for the TRIACs.

The principle of operation for this kind of TRIAC is based on the concept of triggering. The triggering can only be produced if a strong current is present in the main terminals, such a current will provide the activation energy needed to turn it “on”. This is called conduction current. The amount of current necessary for triggering always stays the same for the BTA06-800CWRG, no matter the threshold voltage. This amount can be increased by connecting a gate resistance to the gate terminal, but this will have no effect on the voltage.

The working principle of the BTA06-800CWRG is as follows: when the voltage present on the MT1 and MT2 terminals is above a certain value (called the threshold voltage), and current through the terminals reaches the conduction level, then a signal must be applied to the gate terminal. This will cause a current flow into the gate terminal, which will further increase the current through MT1 and MT2, until it reaches its saturation level.

The BTA06-800CWRG can be used in several applications, mainly industrial, such as motor control and dimmer circuits. This TRIAC can also be used in a variety of other applications, such as electric heating and illumination projects. It can also be used in domestic applications, including electric ovens and toasters.

In conclusion, the BTA06-800CWRG belongs to the category of Thyristors - TRIACs. Its principal function is to serve as a controllable switch between two main terminals and its triggering is done by applying a gate signal to the gate terminal. The current through the main terminals is used to trigger it and the threshold voltage and conduction level of it remain constant. It can be used in a variety of applications, ranging from industrial motor control to domestic uses.
