Overview
The BTA216X-800B/L02Q is a high commutation triac produced by WeEn Semiconductors. It is part of the BTA216X series, designed for use in circuits where high static and dynamic dV/dt and high dI/dt can occur. These triacs are planar passivated and come in a full pack, plastic envelope, specifically the TO220FP case. They are intended to handle demanding applications without the need for a snubber, commutating the full rated rms current at the maximum rated junction temperature.
