Product details

Sensitive gate — why it matters for the drive circuit

The Logic - Sensitive Gate designation means the triac triggers with a gate current of 5 mA (max) at a gate voltage of 1.3 V (max). That is low enough to be driven directly by a 5 V microcontroller pin through a series resistor, or by a standard MOC30xx-series optocoupler. No extra transistor or Darlington pair needed — one fewer component to source and place.

Sourcing this part

The BTB06-600TWRG is an active ST product with no known supply constraints. We source it through independent distribution channels and can quote firm pricing and lead time against an RFQ.

Frequently asked questions

What is the gate trigger current of BTB06-600TWRG?

The maximum gate trigger current (Igt) is 5 mA, and the maximum gate trigger voltage (Vgt) is 1.3 V.

Is BTB06-600TWRG RoHS compliant?

Yes, it is ROHS3 compliant.

Can BTB06-600TWRG be used for dimming applications?

Yes, its sensitive gate (5 mA Igt) and 600 V off-state rating make it suitable for phase-control dimming of resistive loads like incandescent lamps on 230 VAC lines. For inductive loads like fan motors, a snubber network is recommended.

Is BTB06-600TWRG suitable for AC switching?

Yes, it is a triac designed for AC line switching. The 600 V off-state voltage and 6 A RMS on-state current cover common 230 VAC and 277 VAC loads.

What is the equivalent of BTB06-600TWRG?

The BTB08-600TWRG is a pin-compatible sensitive-gate triac with an 8 A rating. The BTB06-600BWRG is a snubberless alternistor in the same package and current class. Neither is an exact second source for the sensitive-gate trigger level, but both share the TO-220 footprint and 600 V rating.
