The BTA12 AW is a snubberless triac designed for phase‑control and static switching applications on inductive or resistive loads. It offers high surge current capability and a wide voltage rating without the need for external snubbing components.
The document provides absolute ratings, thermal resistance data, gate and electrical characteristics, as well as mechanical package dimensions for the TO‑220AB (CB‑415) plastic package.
| RMS on‑state current (I_T RMS) | 12 A |
|---|---|
| Junction‑to‑ambient thermal resistance | 60 °C/W |
| Gate trigger current (I_GT) | 140 mA |
The RMS on‑state current is rated at 12 A when the device is at 85 °C.
The junction‑to‑ambient thermal resistance is 60 °C/W.
