This document presents the preliminary specifications of the BTA208S series and BTA208M series three quadrant triacs by Philips Semiconductors. These triacs have high commutation capabilities and are suitable for circuits requiring high static and dynamic voltage and current. They can commutate the full rated rms current without the aid of a snubber at the maximum rated junction temperature.
This document is a preliminary specification datasheet for the BTA208S series C three-quadrant triac from Philips Semiconductors. The device features glass passivation in a plastic envelope suitable for surface mounting and is designed for circuits requiring high static and dynamic dV/dt capabilities without snubber assistance.
