The WeEn BTA2008-600E,412 is a single logic-sensitive gate triac rated for 600 V off-state and 800 mA RMS on-state current. It comes in a TO-92-3 through-hole package with formed leads, intended for low-power AC switching in applications like small motor control, lamp dimming, and relay or solenoid drivers. The sensitive gate (10 mA maximum trigger current) lets it fire directly from a logic-level signal — no separate driver transistor needed on the board.
10 mA gate trigger — logic-level drive without extra parts
The maximum gate trigger current of 10 mA and voltage of 2 V allow a microcontroller output to drive it through a series resistor. The 12 mA holding current ensures the triac latches on once triggered.
TO-92-3 package — field-swappable, no hot air required
The TO-92-3 through-hole package (TO-226-3 equivalent) with formed leads is socket-friendly and easy to hand-solder. On a service call, you can swap it with a screwdriver and a soldering iron — no hot-air station, no reflow profile. The bulk packaging means you get loose parts, not tape-and-reel, so pulling one for a repair is straightforward.
WeEn lists this part as Active — no end-of-life notice. It is a current-production device.
