Littelfuse, Inc. TRIACs L6008V6TP

The Littelfuse Triac (part number 71J0817) is an 8 Amp bidirectional solid-state switch designed for AC switching and phase control applications. It is suitable for use in motor speed controls, lighting controls, and static switching relays. The device features a peak repetitive off-state voltage of 600V and an on-state RMS current rating of 8A. This Triac operates in multiple quadrants, with sensitive types ensuring gate control in Quadrants I and IV, while standard types operate in Quadrants I and III. The device has a maximum gate trigger voltage of 1.3V and a peak non-repetitive surge current capability of 46A. It is RoHS compliant and constructed with glass-passivated junctions, providing enhanced reliability and performance. The product is packaged in a TO-251 case style and is designed for applications requiring solid-state switching, which eliminates arcing and contact bounce, thereby reducing voltage transients. It is particularly effective in circuits with inductive loads that demand high commutation performance.
