Description
The BT136 is a commonly used TRIAC (Triode for Alternating Current) semiconductor device, designed for controlling AC power in electronic circuits. Here’s a description for a set of 2 BT136 TRIACs:
The BT136 TRIAC, available in this set of two, is a versatile electronic component designed for precise control of alternating current (AC) power in a variety of applications. Encased in a TO-220 package, these TRIACs are easily mountable and provide efficient heat dissipation, ensuring reliable performance in diverse electronic circuits.
With a maximum voltage rating of typically 600 volts and current handling capabilities of up to several amperes, the BT136 TRIACs are suitable for applications such as light dimmers, motor speed control, and heating elements. Their bidirectional switching capability allows for controlling power flow in both directions of the AC waveform.
Featuring a gate trigger current typically ranging from a few milliamperes to tens of milliamperes, the BT136 TRIACs can be easily controlled by low-power microcontrollers or other control circuitry. This makes them adaptable to a wide range of electronic projects requiring AC power control.
Manufactured for durability and reliability, these TRIACs exhibit stable performance across a range of temperatures, making them suitable for use in various environmental conditions. Whether you are designing home automation systems, electronic dimmer circuits, or other AC power control applications, this set of two BT136 TRIACs provides the fundamental components needed to achieve precise and efficient control of AC loads in your electronic projects.
