The BT151X series thyristors are a high thermal cycling performance thyristors with isolated mounting base, high bidirectional blocking voltage capability. They are suitable for motor control, industrial and domestic lighting, heating and static switching applications.
This document is a product data sheet for the Philips BT151X series of passivated thyristors. The devices are available in two package types: the SOT186A full pack plastic package with an isolated mounting base, and the 3-lead TO-220 'full pack' version.
The datasheet provides comprehensive technical data including quick reference ratings for different voltage variants (500V, 650V, and 800V), pinning information, limiting values according to IEC 60134, thermal characteristics, isolation specifications, electrical characteristics such as gate trigger currents and voltages, and dynamic performance metrics. It also includes package outline dimensions and ordering information.
