Product details
Overview
T405Q-600B-TR from STMicroelectronics is a 4 A, 600 V sensitive quadrants I–IV triac in DPAK package, with quadrant-dependent gate trigger current (5 mA for I/II/III, 10 mA for IV), designed for direct MCU-driven AC load switching in compact home appliance motor and lighting control circuits.
For engineers reviewing the T405Q-600B-TR datasheet, T405Q-600B-TR pinout, T405Q-600B-TR application, or T405Q-600B-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include gate sensitivity across all four quadrants, 35 A non-repetitive surge rating, thermal resistance (Rth(j-c) = 3 °C/W), DPAK mechanical footprint, and ECOPACK®2 compliance for industrial-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This triac operates as a bidirectional AC switch with full four-quadrant triggering capability, enabling gate drive from both polarities of main terminal A2 relative to A1. Its low 5 mA IGT in quadrants I–III supports direct microcontroller GPIO interfacing without external amplification.
It features robust transient immunity: 700 V non-repetitive off-state surge voltage (VDSM/VRSM), 10 V/µs dV/dt at 125 °C, and 50 A/µs critical dI/dt rating - ensuring reliable commutation in inductive motor and pump loads under noisy line conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IT(rms) | 4 A - continuous RMS on-state current rating at Tc = 110 °C, defining maximum steady-state load handling in fan or valve drivers |
| VDRM / VRRM | 600 V - peak repetitive off-state blocking voltage, suitable for 230 VAC mains with safety margin |
| IGT (QI–III / QIV) | 5 / 10 mA - gate trigger current threshold enabling direct MCU GPIO drive without buffer stage in most quadrants |
| ITSM (tp = 20 ms) | 35 A - non-repetitive surge current capacity, supporting motor startup inrush and pump stall transients |
| Rth(j-c) | 3 °C/W - junction-to-case thermal resistance, enabling high-power dissipation with minimal heatsink requirement in DPAK |
| VTM @ 5 A | 1.5 V max - on-state voltage drop at 5 A, determining conduction loss and self-heating in continuous operation |
| dV/dt @ 125 °C | 10 V/µs min - immunity to false triggering from fast line transients in dimmer or motor phase-control applications |
Pinout & Package
DPAK (TO-252) surface-mount package with isolated tab (A2), standard 3-pin layout optimized for thermal performance and PCB assembly. Tab is electrically connected to main terminal A2.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A2 | Main Terminal 2 | High-current AC output terminal; electrically tied to exposed metal tab for thermal conduction and electrical connection |
| A1 | Main Terminal 1 | High-current AC return path; referenced to load neutral or line depending on circuit topology |
| G | Gate | Control input accepting low-current trigger pulses; polarity-sensitive for quadrant-specific firing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Four-quadrant sensitivity | 5 mA IGT in QI–III enables universal triggering from any AC phase/gate polarity combination |
| MCU direct drive | No external gate driver required - compatible with 3.3 V/5 V microcontroller outputs driving resistive gate load |
| ECOPACK®2 compliance | Lead-free, RoHS-compliant construction with UL94 V0 epoxy, meeting global environmental and safety standards |
| High surge robustness | 35 A ITSM (20 ms) and 700 V VDSM support repeated overloads in motor and pump applications |
Applications
| Fan Speed Control | Lighting Dimmer |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Variable-speed AC fan in HVAC or portable air purifiers using phase-angle control. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional AC switch triggered by zero-crossing synchronized PWM to modulate power delivered to induction motor. Use Value: Enables smooth speed regulation with low EMI due to controlled turn-on timing and 10 V/µs dV/dt immunity. | Use Scenario: Leading-edge dimming of incandescent or halogen lamps in residential lighting systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching element in TRIAC-based dimmer circuit, fired after adjustable delay from zero-crossing. Use Value: 5 mA gate sensitivity allows direct microcontroller timing control without gate driver, reducing BOM count. |
| Pump & Valve Driver | Mahjong Machine Actuator |
Use Scenario: Intermittent AC solenoid valve or small water pump in smart appliances or vending systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Solid-state relay replacement providing contactless, wear-free switching of inductive loads. Use Value: 35 A ITSM handles pump startup surges; 50 A/µs dI/dt rating prevents false turn-off during rapid current rise. | Use Scenario: Electromechanical actuation of tile shuffling mechanisms in automated mahjong tables. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Compact, thermally efficient AC switch controlling 230 VAC solenoids and stepper motor drivers. Use Value: DPAK package delivers 4 A RMS in space-constrained PCB layouts while maintaining Rth(j-c) = 3 °C/W for stable long-term operation. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar sensitive triac applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BT134-600D | Same 4 A/600 V rating but 10 mA IGT across all quadrants; higher 15 mA holding current | Limited to lower-sensitivity designs; less suitable for direct 3.3 V MCU drive | Select when gate drive strength exceeds 10 mA and board-level noise immunity is prioritized over ultra-low IGT |
| T405-600B | Non-sensitive variant requiring 50 mA IGT; lacks quadrant IV sensitivity | Requires external gate driver; incompatible with true 4Q MCU control schemes | Choose only if legacy design uses buffered gate drive and quadrant IV operation is unused |
Compared with BT134-600D and T405-600B, the T405Q-600B-TR uniquely supports direct 3.3 V/5 V MCU triggering across all four quadrants with lowest gate current (5 mA), making it optimal for space- and cost-constrained smart appliance control where flexible phase control and minimal external components are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?
The T405Q-600B-TR has a maximum operating junction temperature (Tj) of +125 °C. This limit applies under steady-state conditions with case temperature maintained at or below 110 °C per the absolute maximum ratings table. Thermal derating is required above this point to avoid permanent degradation.
Can this triac be used with 3.3 V microcontrollers without a gate driver?
Yes - its 5 mA IGT in quadrants I–III allows direct drive from 3.3 V GPIO pins using a simple 680 Ω series resistor (ensuring ≥5 mA at 3.3 V – VGT). Quadrant IV requires 10 mA, still achievable with most modern MCUs under typical VOH conditions.
Is the DPAK tab electrically isolated or connected to a terminal?
The DPAK metal tab is electrically connected to main terminal A2, not isolated. This must be accounted for in PCB layout - A2 must be routed to a copper pour or heatsink at the same potential, and isolation barriers must exclude the tab area.
What does the "Q" in T405Q-600B-TR signify?
The "Q" denotes four-quadrant sensitivity: gate trigger current is specified separately for quadrants I–III (5 mA) and quadrant IV (10 mA), distinguishing it from standard triacs with uniform IGT or non-sensitive variants requiring higher gate current across all modes.
