Product Description
The BT137-800E is a robust 8A,800V bidirectional triac in a TO-220C package,designed for efficient AC switching in medium-power applications.With high surge tolerance and reliable switching capability, it delivers reliable performance in lighting control (dimmers),motor speed regulation,fan controllers,and household appliances.
Mechanical Data
- Current Rating: 8A (RMS)
- Voltage Rating: 800V (repetitive peak off-state voltage)
- Gate Trigger Current (I_GT):10mA (typical)
- On-State Voltage Drop (V_T): 1.6V (at 10A)
- Package: TO-220C
Features&Advantages
- High Voltage Capability – Supports up to 800V repetitive peak off-state voltage
- Moderate On-State Current – Rated for 8A RMS on-state current
- Low Gate Triggering Requirements – Can be triggered with a relatively low gate current, simplifying control circuit design.
- Sensitive Gate Triggering – Supports gate triggering in all four quadrants, enhancing triggering flexibility.
- TO-220 Package – Standard TO-220 form factor for easy heatsinking and PCB mounting.
- High Surge Current Capability – Withstands up to 65A peak non-repetitive surge current, ideal for inductive loads.
Typical Applications
- Dimmer circuits (for incandescent/LED lighting)
- AC motor speed control
- Solid-state relays (SSRs)
- Heating control systems
- Power tools and appliances
BT137-800E Pinout
