6 Amp Sensitive, Standard & Alternistor (High Commutation) Triacs
Lxx06xx & Qxx06xx & Qxx06xHx Series
Description
RoHS
This 6 Amp bidirectional solid state switch series is
designed for AC switching and phase control applications
such as motor speed and temperature modulation controls,
lighting controls, and static switching relays.
Sensitive
type components guarantee gate control in
Quadrants I & IV as needed for digital control circuitry.
Standard
type components normally operate in Quadrants
I & III triggered from AC line.
Alternistor
type components only operate in quadrants
I, II, & III and are used in circuits requiring high dv/dt
capability.
Features & Benefits

Agency File Number
E71693*
* - L Package Only
• RoHS compliant
• Glass – passivated
junctions
• Voltage capability up
to 1000 V
• Surge capability up
to 85 A
• The L-package has
an isolation rating of
2500V
RMS
• Solid-state switching
eliminates arcing or
contact bounce that
create voltage transients
Applications
• No contacts to wear out
from reaction of switching
events
• Restricted (or limited) RFI
generation, depending on
activation point of
sine wave
• Only requires a short gate
activation pulse during
each half-cycle

Schematic Symbol
Excellent for AC switching and phase control applications
such as heating, lighting, and motor speed controls.
Typical applications are AC solid-state switches, light
dimmers, power tools, home/brown goods and white
goods appliances.
Alternistor Triacs (no snubber required) are used in
applications with extremely inductive loads requiring the
highest commutation performance.
Internally constructed isolated packages are offered for
ease of heat sinking with highest isolation voltage.
