BTA201 series B, E and ER 1A three-quadrant triacs with high commutation capability are suitable for interfacing with low power drivers, including microcontrollers and can be chosen with reverse pins (ER type) for motor control and solenoid driver applications
The BTA201 series triacs are passivated, high‑commutation devices offered in B, E and ER variants. The B series handles full RMS current without a snubber, while the E and ER series feature a sensitive gate for low‑power driver interfacing, including microcontrollers. Applications include motor controls and solenoid drivers.
The document lists pin configurations, ordering information, limiting values, thermal, static and dynamic characteristics, as well as legal and contact details. It serves as a quick reference for designers needing electrical ratings, package outlines and temperature limits of the BTA201 devices.
