Thyristors - TRIACs

TRIAC (triode for alternating current) devices are a type of thyristor or semiconductor switch, primarily used in AC circuits. They are a form of bidirectional, three-terminal, three-layer semiconductor device that will switch power in both directions and can be used for controlling AC current. The BTA16-600SWRG is a specific type of TRIAC which specializes in handling large power and current ranges.

Application Field

The most common applications for the BTA16-600SWRG are in products related to regulating, switching and controlling AC current. Examples of application areas include electrical motors, heaters, consumer electronics, electric heat control, and AC power control. Because of its ability to handle up to 600V, 16A of power, it is extremely useful in circuits that require high power, such as AC power switching in industrial and large consumer electronics, along with medical equipment.

Working Principle

The BTA16-600SWRG works by allowing current to pass through two layers of thyristors, arranged in a three-terminal configuration. These two layers of thyristors form a "T" shape, with the two layers connected at their common central terminal, forming a TRIAC. When a trigger voltage is applied to this central terminal, it creates a voltage drop across the two layers of thyristors, allowing power to flow through both layers and switch on the device. The current then flows from anode to cathode, completing the circuit.

The BTA16-600SWRG TRIAC is a very reliable device, due to its three layer structure and its ability to handle much higher power than other types of TRIACs. This reliability makes it a preferred choice for many applications requiring switching or controlling AC power.

The BTA16-600SWRG also has a number of additional benefits, including its low cost and its ability to handle large amounts of power and current. Additionally, its three-terminal design makes it easier to mount on a board or other surface, allowing it to be used in a variety of applications.

The key benefits of the BTA16-600SWRG TRIAC are its ability to handle large power and current levels, its reliability, and its low cost. These features make it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications, such as heat controllers, air conditioners, commercial lighting, motor startup applications, and many more.
