Product details
Overview
T405-700B-TR from STMicroelectronics is a 4 A, 700 V RMS three-quadrant logic-level triac in DPAK package, designed for AC phase control in inductive loads with low gate trigger current (5 mA max) and high commutation robustness. It enables compact motor control in universal motor appliances such as power tools and dishwashers without external snubber circuits.
For engineers reviewing the T405-700B-TR datasheet, T405-700B-TR pinout, T405-700B-TR application, or T405-700B-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include gate sensitivity (IGT ≤ 5 mA), blocking voltage (VDRM = 700 V), thermal resistance (Rth(j-c) = 2.6 °C/W), and snubberless operation for inductive load switching reliability.
Technical Context
The T405-700B-TR uses ST's Snubberless logic-level technology to achieve high dV/dt immunity (20 V/µs min at 125 °C) and robust commutation without external RC networks. Its three-quadrant operation excludes quadrant I triggering, reducing false turn-on risk in noisy AC environments.
It supports full-cycle AC conduction with IT(rms) = 4 A at Tc = 110 °C and withstands non-repetitive surge currents up to 30 A (50 Hz, 20 ms). Gate drive requires only 5 mA maximum trigger current at 12 V, compatible with microcontroller GPIOs directly.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IT(rms) | 4 A - Sustained AC load current rating at case temperature 110 °C, suitable for continuous motor drive |
| VDRM / VRRM | 700 V - Peak repetitive off-state voltage, enabling use on 230 VAC mains with safety margin |
| IGT (max) | 5 mA - Maximum gate trigger current, allowing direct drive from low-power logic outputs |
| dV/dt (min) | 20 V/µs - Critical rate of rise of off-state voltage at 125 °C, ensuring noise immunity in inductive switching |
| Rth(j-c) | 2.6 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance, enabling efficient heatsinking in DPAK footprint |
| IL (max) | 10 mA - Maximum latching current, defining minimum load current needed to sustain conduction after trigger |
| IH (max) | 10 mA - Maximum holding current, specifying lowest load current that maintains on-state before turn-off |
Pinout & Package
DPAK (TO-252) surface-mount package with isolated tab; thermally optimized for PCB copper area ≥ 4.95 mm × 6.35 mm per Figure 13; lead-free, halogen-free, UL94 V0 compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 (MT1) | Main Terminal 1 | Reference terminal for gate triggering; connected to load return path in standard triac configuration |
| A2 (MT2) | Main Terminal 2 | High-side AC line connection; carries full load current and defines polarity reference for gate control |
| G | Gate | Logic-level control input; triggers conduction when biased positive or negative relative to A1 in quadrants II/III |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Snubberless operation | Eliminates need for external RC snubber across MT1–MT2 in inductive loads like universal motors |
| Three-quadrant triggering | Enables gate control only in quadrants II and III, improving noise immunity vs. four-quadrant triacs |
| Low IGT (≤5 mA) | Permits direct interface with 3.3 V or 5 V MCU GPIOs without buffer transistors |
| High dI/dt capability (50 A/µs) | Supports fast turn-on into highly inductive loads without commutation failure |
| ECOPACK® compliant | Meets RoHS, halogen-free, and lead-free requirements for industrial and consumer appliance designs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triac-based AC switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BT136-700D | 4 A IT(rms), 700 V VDRM, but 15 mA IGT max and no snubberless rating | Requires external snubber for inductive loads; less suitable for space-constrained motor control | Select when cost is primary constraint and board area allows snubber components |
| T410-700B-TR | Same package and voltage, but 10 mA IGT max and higher IL (25 mA) | Less sensitive gate drive; better suited for noisy industrial environments where false triggering must be avoided | Select when gate drive source has limited current capability or higher noise immunity is required over sensitivity |
Compared with BT136-700D, T405-700B-TR eliminates snubber dependency and reduces gate drive burden; versus T410-700B-TR, it trades higher sensitivity for lower latching current, favoring microcontroller-direct control in consumer-grade appliances.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?
The T405-700B-TR has an operating junction temperature range of −40 °C to +125 °C. Continuous operation at Tj = 125 °C is permitted when case temperature is maintained at ≤110 °C per absolute maximum ratings, requiring appropriate PCB copper area and thermal management per Table 6.
Can this triac replace a mechanical relay in a 230 VAC, 2 A resistive load?
Yes - with IT(rms) = 4 A and VDRM = 700 V, the T405-700B-TR safely handles 230 VAC resistive loads up to 4 A. Its snubberless design and low IGT enable direct microcontroller control, offering silent, wear-free switching with >10⁶ cycles versus typical relay lifetimes of 10⁵ mechanical cycles.
Is heatsinking required for 4 A RMS operation?
Yes - at full 4 A IT(rms), junction-to-case thermal resistance is 2.6 °C/W. With Tj(max) = 125 °C and Tc = 110 °C, allowable power dissipation is ~5.8 W. A minimum 5 cm² copper pour (35 µm thick) on FR4 is recommended per Figure 11 to maintain safe thermal margins without additional heatsink.
Does this device support zero-crossing switching?
No - the T405-700B-TR is not a zero-crossing triac. It is a random-phase (instantaneous) switch; conduction begins at gate trigger regardless of AC phase angle. Zero-crossing functionality must be implemented externally via microcontroller timing synchronized to line voltage sensing.
