BTA12-800CW

WEIDA · TRIACs · TO-220

BTA12-800CW from WEIDA, in a TO-220. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 T1 passive Main terminal T1 of the triac (MT1), the current return terminal; the BTA12 TO-220A tab is insulated from all three terminals (2500 VRMS rated).
2 T2 passive Main terminal T2 of the triac (MT2); handles up to 12 A RMS on-state current with VDRM/VRRM of 800 V for the BTA12-800CW.
3 G input Gate trigger input; for the CW grade IGT is max 35 mA (quadrants I-II-III) at VD=12 V, RL=33 ohm, VGT max 1.5 V, peak gate current IGM 4 A.
