Thyristors - TRIACs have come to play a major role in control and power electronics technology due to their ability to switch large blocks of power. The BTA316-800ET,127 is a Triac, a three-terminal semiconductor device composed of two silicon sections. It functions similarly to two SCRs that are connected in an inverse parallel configuration with their gates connected together to form a device with one gate. This type of Triac is suitable for mains power load switching applications.

Application Field: The BTA316-800ET,127 Triac is suitable for high power switching applications in industrial, commercial, and residential applications. It can be used to control motor speed and lighting intensity in motor drives, lighting systems, and heating systems. It can also be used in various applications such as contactors and power relays for ac motor control, remote control for air conditioning systems, and electronic lighting control.

Working Principle:The BTA316-800ET,127 Triac has two gate terminals. One gate is connected to the MT2 terminal and the other to the MT1 terminal. When a positive voltage is applied to one gate, it switches on, and either side of the device will conduct until the voltage across the device drops below the holding current level for the current conduction direction. In other words, it will stay in a “switched on” state until the current flow is stopped by the user or an overcurrent situation is triggered. The Triac is also capable of being switched on and off by a single signal applied between the MT1 and MT2 control terminals, or by an alternating signal which reverses the direction of current periodically.

In contrast to a thyristor, the Triac is bidirectional, meaning that it can conduct in both directions, allowing it to be switched on and off with a single control signal or an alternating signal. In addition, the Triac can respond to both positive and negative gate signals. For example, when the MT1 is connected positive and the MT2 terminal is connected negative, the device switches on and current flows from MT1 to MT2. The opposite is also true; when a negative voltage is applied to the MT1 and a positive voltage to the MT2, the device switches on and current flows from MT2 to MT1. The Triac can be used for high power applications when it is combined with a thyristor in a parallel configuration. This type of combination can be used in a variety of applications, from lighting to heating and from motor control to power relays.

Conclusion: The BTA316-800ET, 127 Triac is a three-terminal semiconductor device used for high-power switching applications. It can be triggered with a single control signal or an alternating signal. It is versatile, allowing it to be used in a variety of applications from lighting to heating and from motor control to power relays. In addition, it is capable of conducting in both directions, making it highly efficient for most applications.
