T850H-6T

Thyristors - TRIACs

The T850H-6T is a type of triacs, a type of bi-directional, three-terminal semiconductor thyristor which can control electrical behavior in two directions, the more commonly known thyristors. The T850H-6T is designed to switch high-voltage loads and, relative to other types of triacs, it can switch higher currents. It is often found as components in applications such as lighting control and static controllers for motors.

Working Principle

The T850H-6T triac is a thyristor composed of two back-to-back thyristors connected in parallel, with a gate terminal on the top. The operation of the T850H-6T is based on the gate current flow. When the gate current is applied, the thyristor conducts in one direction until the current flowing in that direction reaches a certain level, at which point the thyristor will cease to conduct and prevent any current flow in the opposite direction. The flow of current in one direction-either positive or negative-must be controlled as to limit overshoot and provide a clean, glitch-free operation.

Application Field

The T850H-6T is designed for use in high-voltage applications, commutations and motor control, such as in applications that require extremely precise current control and the ability to switch high currents quickly. The T850H-6T is typically used in lighting systems, providing engineers with a reliable, cost-effective way to achieve constant, bright lighting. It is also used as a static controller in large motors, which limits the power that can be applied to a load. The T850H-6T also provides reliable current control for temperature, flow and position control systems.

The T850H-6T is also often used in the industrial control space, where it is used to provide precise switching of high-current, high-voltage applications. In industrial environments, the T850H-6T is often used in process control, where it provides reliable current control for the movement of arms and limbs, the feeding of material and other precise control requirements. The T850H-6T is an ideal device for use in industrial and servo motor drives, providing engineers with precise control of the motor’s speed and direction.

The T850H-6T is also frequently used in the electronic equipment and automation space, providing engineers with a reliable way to control the power supply for electronic systems. It is frequently deployed in automated test equipment, public transportation systems and industrial automation systems, providing engineers with the ability to switch high-voltage loads quickly and reliably. It also has a wide range of uses in consumer electronics, where it is used to provide precise switching of large loads, including electric motors and lighting.

Conclusion

The T850H-6T is an important device for a wide range of industrial, consumer and automation applications. It is designed to provide precise control of high-voltage, high-current loads and, relative to other types of triacs, it can switch higher currents. It is an ideal device for use in lighting systems, temperature, flow and position control systems, as well as industrial automation and servo motor drive systems.
