BTA140 series triacs are Philips Semiconductors products. These triacs have high bidirectional transient and blocking voltage capability and high thermal cycling performance. Typical applications include motor control, industrial and domestic lighting, current heating and static switching.
The BTA140 series are glass‑passivated triacs in a TO‑220AB package, designed for high‑voltage, high‑current applications such as motor control, lighting, heating and static switching. They offer a repetitive peak off‑state voltage up to 800 V and RMS on‑state current of 25 A.
The document lists detailed electrical limits, thermal resistance values, pin configuration, mechanical dimensions, and safety notices. It also defines the status of the data sheet and the applicable IEC 134 limiting‑value system.
| Repetitive peak off‑state voltage | 800 V |
|---|---|
| RMS on‑state current | 25 A |
| Non‑repetitive peak on‑state current | 190 A |
| Thermal resistance (junction‑to‑mounting base, full cycle) | 1.0 K/W |
| Storage temperature range | -40 °C to 150 °C |
The maximum repetitive peak off‑state voltage is 800 V.
The RMS on‑state current is 25 A.
It is 1.0 K/W for a full cycle and 1.4 K/W for a half cycle.
The device can be stored between –40 °C and 150 °C.
