Product details
Overview
T835-600B from STMicroelectronics is a snubberless 8 A, 600 V triac in IPAK package, designed for AC phase control and switching in inductive loads. It features 35 mA maximum gate trigger current (IGT), 400 V/µs critical dV/dt at 125 °C, and 5.4 A/ms commutation capability without snubber. Used in motor speed controllers and heating regulation circuits where high commutation robustness is required.
For engineers reviewing the T835-600B datasheet, T835-600B pinout, T835-600B application, or T835-600B equivalent, key selection criteria include snubberless operation on inductive loads, logic-level compatibility with microcontrollers, thermal resistance of 1.6 °C/W (junction-to-case), and IPAK package suitability for medium-power PCB mounting.
Technical Context
This triac operates in three quadrants (I, II, III) with snubberless commutation performance optimized for inductive loads. Its gate sensitivity (IGT ≤ 35 mA) enables direct drive from low-power MCUs without external amplification.
It delivers 8 A RMS on-state current at Tc = 110 °C, supports non-repetitive surge up to 84 A (60 Hz), and maintains stable latching (IL ≤ 50 mA) and holding (IH ≤ 35 mA) currents across –40 to +125 °C junction temperature range.
Key Specifications

| IT(RMS) | 8 A - Sustains continuous AC load current up to 8 A at case temperature 110 °C |
| VDRM / VRRM | 600 V - Blocks 600 V peak off-state voltage in both directions, suitable for 230 VAC mains |
| IGT (max) | 35 mA - Gate trigger current threshold enabling direct MCU GPIO interface |
| dV/dt (min) | 400 V/µs - Critical rate-of-rise immunity without snubber at 125 °C junction temperature |
| (dl/dt)c (min) | 5.4 A/ms - Minimum commutation di/dt capability ensuring reliable turn-off on inductive loads |
| Rth(j-c) | 1.6 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance enabling efficient heatsinking in IPAK package |
| VTM (max) | 1.55 V - On-state voltage drop at 11 A pulse, defining conduction loss at rated current |
Pinout & Package

Applications
| Motor Speed Control | Heating Regulation |
|---|---|
|

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| T835-600G | D²PAK package (Rth(j-c) = 1.6 °C/W same, but larger footprint and higher thermal mass) | Better suited for higher ambient temperatures or forced-air cooling due to improved heat spreading | Select when board layout allows D²PAK and thermal derating margins require extra case-to-ambient margin |
| BTA08-600BW | TO-220AB insulated package (Rth(j-c) = 2.5 °C/W), 50 mA IGT, same 600 V/8 A rating | Higher gate drive requirement limits direct MCU interface; requires gate driver or resistor network | Choose when mechanical mounting to heatsink is mandatory and isolation voltage >2500 VRMS is needed |
Compared with T835-600B, T835-600G offers greater thermal inertia in D²PAK but occupies more PCB area, while BTA08-600BW provides higher isolation voltage in TO-220AB but demands stronger gate drive-making T835-600B optimal for compact, MCU-driven inductive load control.

FAQ
Is T835-600B compatible with zero-crossing trigger circuits?
No-T835-600B is a standard snubberless triac optimized for phase-angle control, not zero-crossing operation. Its gate trigger characteristics (IGT ≤ 35 mA, VGT ≤ 1.2 V) are specified for quadrant I/II/III firing, and it lacks integrated zero-crossing detection. For zero-crossing applications, ST's Z01xxMN series or dedicated opto-triac drivers should be used instead.
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature during continuous operation?
The maximum operating junction temperature (Tj) for T835-600B is +125 °C, as defined in Table 1. To sustain 8 A RMS current, the case temperature must be held at ≤110 °C per the derating curve in Figure 2. Exceeding 125 °C risks irreversible degradation of the silicon die and bond wires.
Does T835-600B require a heatsink in typical 8 A applications?
Yes-when operating continuously at 8 A RMS, the IPAK package's Rth(j-c) of 1.6 °C/W results in ~12.5 °C junction-to-case rise above ambient. With typical conduction losses (~1.2 W at 8 A), a heatsink maintaining Tc ≤ 110 °C is required. Without heatsinking, sustained 8 A operation exceeds safe thermal limits within seconds.
Can T835-600B replace BTA08-600B in existing designs?
Only with layout and drive circuit review: both share 600 V/8 A ratings, but T835-600B uses IPAK (surface-mount) vs. BTA08-600B's TO-220AB (through-hole), and IGT differs (35 mA vs. 50 mA). Gate drive strength and PCB thermal relief must be verified; mechanical mounting and thermal path differ significantly.
