12A TRIACS Available either in through-hole or surface-mountpackages, the BTA/BTB12 and T12 triac series issuitable for general purpose AC switching. Theycan be used as an ON/OFF function inapplications such as static relays, heatingregulation, induction motor starting circuits... or forphase control operation in light dimmers, motorspeed controllers,...The snubberless versions (BTA/BTB...W and T12series) are specially recommended for use oninductive loads, thanks to their high commutationperformances. Logic level versions are designedto interface directly with low power drivers such asmicrocontrollers. By using an internal ceramicpad, the BTA series provides voltage insulated tab(rated at 2500V RMS) complying with ULstandards (File ref.: E81734)
