BTA40, BTA41 and BTB41 Series ® 40A TRIACS STANDARD Table 1: Main Features A2 Symbol Value Unit IT(RMS) 40 A VDRM/VRRM 600 and 800 V IGT (Q1) 50 mA G A1 A1 G DESCRIPTION Available in high power packages, the BTA/ BTB40-41 series is suitable for general purpose AC switching. They can be used as an ON/OFF function in applications such as static relays, heating regulation, induction motor starting circuits... or for phase control operation in light dimmers, motor speed controllers, ... RD91 (BTA40) A2 A1 Thanks to their clip assembly technique, they provide a superior performance in surge current handling capabilities. By using an internal ceramic pad, the BTA series provides voltage insulated tab (rated at 2500VRMS) complying with UL standards (File ref.: E81734).
