BTA16-800 16A 800V Triac TO 220 Package Thyristor

BTA16-800 16A 800V Triac TO 220 Package Thyristor 

The BTA16-800 is a high-power TRIAC (bidirectional thyristor) designed for controlling AC loads in switching and phase-control applications. With a current rating of 16A and a blocking voltage of 800V, it is well suited for handling high-voltage, high-current AC loads.

This device is housed in a TO-220 package and features an electrically insulated tab, allowing it to be mounted directly to a heatsink without additional insulation hardware. The BTA16-800 offers reliable triggering, high surge current capability, and robust performance in both resistive and inductive load applications.
