Thyristors - TRIACs

A TRIAC, or Triode Alternating Current, is a type of thyristor that is capable of controlling a current flow through two or more elements of alternating current. It was invented by General Electric in the late 1970\'s, and since then it has been used in a variety of applications from industrial motor controls to consumer electronics. TRIACs are semiconductor devices made up of a three terminal base and an AC switching element. While traditional thyristors only allow current flow in one direction, TRIACs allow flow in both directions.

The Q6016RH3 is a type of TRIAC produced by the Swiss semiconductor manufacturer Qimonda. This device is designed for general purpose AC switching applications and is used for the control of lamps, motors, household appliances and other devices. It is a cost-effective solution for AC switching duties and can be used in a variety of applications, such as lighting control, power supplies, and solar inverters.

The Q6016RH3 is a quadrant TRIAC, which has two full gate circuits and one gate-source circuit. This device has two symmetrical gate terminals and two symmetric outputs. The gate-source connection is used to apply gate voltage to both upper and lower gates, allowing either an OFF or a full ON state. An OFF state is when the TRIAC terminates the current flow and a full ON state is when the TRIAC passes full current through it.

The Q6016RH3 is capable of blocking a maximum current of 16A and is capable of withstanding a maximum voltage of 600V. It is designed for applications with a frequency range of up to 400Hz, making it suitable for use in industrial motor control applications. This device is also designed with a surge current capability of 32A and a transient peak current of 64A, making it suitable for use in high peak current applications.

The working principle of a Q6016RH3 TRIAC is quite simple. When the gate-source circuit is triggered and current passes through the device, the device\'s conduction state changes and it either passes or blocks the current. If the voltage across the device increases, the device will conduct across the two upper and lower terminals, reducing current flow and creating a low-power condition. If the current is blocked, it will create a high-power condition within the device and the voltage across the terminals will increase.

In summary, the Q6016RH3 is a cost effective, reliable and versatile TRIAC that is suitable for use in a wide range of applications, such as industrial motor control, lighting control, and power supplies. It is capable of blocking a maximum current of 16A and is designed with a surge current capability of 32A and a transient peak current of 64A, making it suitable for high peak current applications.
