Product details
Overview
OT406,135 from NXP Semiconductors is a passivated sensitive-gate four-quadrant triac in SOT223 surface-mount package, rated for 600 V repetitive peak off-state voltage (VDRM), 1 A RMS on-state current (IT(RMS)), and ≤3 mA gate trigger current (IGT) in three quadrants-designed for low-power AC load switching in home appliances and industrial process control.
For engineers reviewing the OT406,135 datasheet, OT406,135 pinout, OT406,135 application, or OT406,135 equivalent, this device supports direct logic-level interfacing, delivers enhanced noise immunity, and operates reliably under voltage transients up to 600 V with thermal resistance Rth(j-sp) = 15 K/W for solder-point cooling.
Technical Context
The OT406,135 implements a four-quadrant triggering architecture enabling gate control with both polarities of main terminal voltage (T2±) and gate signal (G±), with quadrant-specific IGT ≤3 mA (T2+G+, T2+G−, T2−G−) and ≤5 mA (T2−G+). Its dV/dt immunity is rated at ≥10 V/µs under worst-case conditions (VDM = 0.67VDRM, Tj = 110 °C, gate open).
Static conduction is characterized by VT = 1.3–1.6 V at IT = 1 A, holding current IH ≤7 mA, and latching current IL ≤20 mA (T2+G−), supporting robust turn-on and stable hold under low-current AC loads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDRM | 600 V - blocks full-wave AC line voltage up to 424 V RMS without conduction |
| IT(RMS) | 1 A - supports continuous AC load current up to 120 W at 120 VAC |
| IGT | ≤3 mA (T2+G+, T2+G−, T2−G−) - enables direct drive from microcontroller GPIO or low-power logic ICs |
| ITSM | 12.5 A (20 ms) - withstands short-duration motor startup surges or inrush currents |
| Rth(j-sp) | 15 K/W - allows thermal management via PCB copper pad without external heatsink for ≤0.8 W dissipation |
| dV/dt | ≥10 V/µs - prevents false triggering from fast-rising noise transients on AC mains |
| VT | 1.3–1.6 V @ 1 A - limits conduction loss to ≤1.6 W at full RMS current |
Pinout & Package
SOT223 (SC-73) plastic surface-mounted package with 4 leads and integrated heatsink pad; mounting base (Pin 4) is electrically connected to main terminal 2 (T2), enabling low-thermal-resistance PCB mounting.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Main Terminal 1 (T1) | AC load return path; connects to one side of AC load and neutral/line depending on circuit topology |
| 2 | Main Terminal 2 (T2) | AC line input path; shares internal connection with Pin 4 (mounting base) for thermal and electrical continuity |
| 3 | Gate (G) | Four-quadrant trigger input; accepts positive or negative pulses relative to T2 for full-cycle control |
| 4 | Mounting Base / T2 | Electrically tied to T2; provides mechanical anchoring and thermal conduction to PCB copper area |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Four-quadrant triggering | Enables gate control with any polarity combination of T2 and G, eliminating need for external diodes or polarity conditioning circuits |
| Sensitive gate (IGT ≤3 mA) | Reduces drive circuit power consumption and simplifies interface design with 3.3 V or 5 V logic outputs |
| Enhanced noise immunity | Combines high dV/dt rating (≥10 V/µs) and optimized gate structure to suppress false triggering in EMI-prone environments |
| Passivated die construction | Improves long-term reliability under humid or contaminated operating conditions without hermetic sealing |
| SOT223 thermal performance | Rth(j-sp) = 15 K/W enables >0.8 W power dissipation using standard FR4 PCB copper area per Figure 14 |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar four-quadrant triac applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BT134-600D,127 | Same SOT223 package, but IGT = 5 mA (max) and VDRM = 600 V; lower dV/dt rating (≥5 V/µs) | Less suitable for noisy industrial mains; requires stronger gate drive or RC snubber in high-dV/dt environments | Select BT134-600D,127 only if gate drive capability exceeds 5 mA and system EMI is well-controlled. |
| MAC97A6 | TO-92 package, IGT ≤5 mA, VDRM = 600 V, Rth(j-a) = 70 K/W (typ); no integrated heatsink pad | Requires external heatsink for >0.3 W dissipation; incompatible with automated SMT assembly | Choose MAC97A6 only for through-hole prototyping or low-volume legacy designs where thermal load is minimal. |
Compared with BT134-600D,127 and MAC97A6, the OT406,135 offers superior noise immunity (dV/dt ≥10 V/µs), lower gate drive demand (≤3 mA), and optimized SMT thermal performance (Rth(j-sp) = 15 K/W), making it preferred for space-constrained, high-reliability AC control in modern consumer and industrial electronics.

FAQ
What is the maximum RMS on-state current rating for OT406,135?
The OT406,135 has an IT(RMS) rating of 1 A under full sine-wave conditions with solder point temperature ≤103 °C. This corresponds to continuous power handling of approximately 0.8 W at 1 A with VT ≈ 1.3–1.6 V, verified per Figure 1 and Table 3 in the NXP datasheet Rev. 01.
Does OT406,135 support all four triggering quadrants?
Yes, OT406,135 is explicitly specified as a four-quadrant triac. Gate triggering is supported in T2+G+, T2+G−, T2−G−, and T2−G+ modes, with IGT ≤3 mA in the first three quadrants and ≤5 mA in T2−G+, as confirmed in Table 5 of the official NXP datasheet.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to solder point for OT406,135?
The OT406,135 has a maximum Rth(j-sp) of 15 K/W, measured under full-cycle conditions per Figure 6 and Table 4. This value assumes proper PCB copper pad layout per Figure 14 (7 mm × 15 mm minimum), enabling efficient heat transfer from the SOT223 mounting base (Pin 4) to the board.
Can OT406,135 be driven directly by a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO?
Yes, OT406,135 can be driven directly by a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO because its maximum gate trigger current is 3 mA (in three quadrants) and gate trigger voltage is ≤1.3 V (VGT), allowing reliable turn-on with series resistors as low as 1 kΩ while staying within safe I/O current limits.
What is the blocking voltage rating of OT406,135?
The OT406,135 has a repetitive peak off-state voltage (VDRM) and repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) rating of 600 V each, as specified in Table 3 of the NXP datasheet. This allows safe operation on 230 VAC mains with margin for transient overvoltages.
