Thyristors - TRIACs

A TRIAC (triode for alternating current) is a three-terminal electronic component widely used in the electricity industry for controlling current and voltage. It is a type of thyristor, which is a device used as a switch or an amplifier. BTB06-600CRG is a sensitive gate TRIAC and it is functionally equivalent to two SCRs connected in inverse parallel with the gate terminal of each connected together.

The BTB06-600CRG has a peak off-state voltage of 600V, gate current trigger range of 1.5mA to 30mA and can reach a maximum on-state current of 6A. Its features include low trigger current, zero over-shoot, high commutation capability and very low noise surge extinction ratio. It is also equipped with a reliable protection mechanism that enables it to withstand high electro-static discharges, which is essential in many applications.

Such device has several applications in the industry. For instance, it is used in soft start motors and variable speed regulators, street light, infrared and lighting systems, home appliances, electronic ballasts, AC power controls and so on, where it is expected to switch on and off on tri-state mode or to act as an amplifier to control the current and power flow.

The working principle of a TRIAC is based on the process of forming a conducting channel between the two main terminals of the device when a voltage of sufficient value is applied to the gate terminal. It is an active device which provides its own source of current flow when a voltage trigger is applied to the gate. Then, it controls the current flow between its main terminals by maintaining the voltage drop between its anode and gate terminals. The current flow is terminated by either turning the gate trigger voltage (or shuttle) off or by reversing the current direction.

In summary, the BTB06-600CRG is a sensitive gate TRIAC with a wide range of applications in the electricity industry used for controlling current and voltage. In order to achieve this, it relies in its principle of forming a conducting channel between its two main terminals when a voltage of sufficient value is applied to the gate terminal.
