BTA16-800SWRG from STMicroelectronics, in a TO-220AB. 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 | A1 | passive | Main terminal A1, the reference terminal for gate and A2 measurements; the triac conducts up to 16 A RMS (IT(RMS)) between A2 and A1. |
| 2 | A2 | passive | Main terminal A2, which carries the 16 A RMS on-state current and is rated for VDRM/VRRM of 800 V for this part; the tab is insulated (2500 VRMS) in the BTA series. |
| 3 | G | input | Gate trigger input; the BTA16-800SW has a maximum IGT of 10 mA and a maximum VGT of 1.3 V (VD = 12 V, RL = 30 Ω). |
