Thyristors - TRIACs

BTA206-800ET,127 application field and working principle

A TRIAC (Triode for Alternating Current) is a semiconductor device commonly used for switching or controlling electric current. It is composed of three terminals, namely gate, main terminal 1 (MT1) and main terminal 2 (MT2). The BTA206-800ET,127 is a 1200V/800mA TRIAC which is used in various types of power control systems, including industrial, consumer and audio/video systems.

The working principle of the BTA206-800ET,127 is based on the principle of a thyristor. A thyristor is a semiconductor device consisting of three or more layers of reisisting material called junctions. When a low-voltage signal is applied to the gate terminal, the voltage is converted to a larger voltage that is applied across the main terminals. When the main voltage is greater than the TRIAC’s personal breakover voltage, it begins to conduct, which leads to conduction of current from MT1 to MT2.

The BTA206-800ET,127 is a bidirectional TRIAC and is used for a variety of applications including motor speed control, lighting control, temperature control and energy management. It is typically used in AC switching circuits, with its main function being to provide switching capability as well as current-limiting functions, and it can be triggered by both positive and negative voltages. In addition, it is well-suited for applications where low-cost and ruggedness are key considerations.

In a typical application, the BTA206-800ET,127 can be used to switch a motor from on to off states. The motor is connected to the MT1 and MT2 terminals. When a current is passed through the gate terminal, the TRIAC is activated, and the motor is turned on or off. It is also possible to use this TRIAC for phase-control applications, in which the amount of current passing through the motor is controlled.

In addition, the BTA206-800ET,127 can be used for controlling the speed of a motor. This is achieved by applying a variable frequency signal to the main terminals. This controls the on/off switching in the main terminals, which in turn affects the speed of the motor. The speed of the motor decreases as the frequency of the input signal decreases, and vice versa.

In summary, the BTA206-800ET,127 is a TRIAC which is used in many types of power control systems, and is ideal for applications where low-cost and ruggedness are important considerations. Its main function is to provide switching capability as well as current limiting functions, and it can be triggered by both positive and negative voltages. Additionally, it can also be used for controlling the speed of a motor by applying a variable frequency signal to the main terminals.
