Product details
Overview
T835-600G-TR from STMicroelectronics is a snubberless, logic-level 3-quadrant triac rated for 8 A RMS on-state current and 600 V repetitive peak off-state voltage (VDRM/VRRM), with 35 mA maximum gate trigger current (IGT). It uses a D²PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package and is designed for phase-controlled AC switching in inductive load applications such as motor speed controllers and heating regulation circuits.
For engineers reviewing the T835-600G-TR datasheet, T835-600G-TR pinout, T835-600G-TR application, or T835-600G-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include commutation robustness under inductive loads, gate drive compatibility with microcontrollers, thermal resistance (Rth(j-c) = 1.6 °C/W), and snubberless operation at 600 V.
Technical Context
This triac operates in three quadrants (I, II, III) and features high commutation performance-enabling reliable turn-off without external snubbers in inductive circuits. Its 35 mA IGT and 1.2 V VGT allow direct interfacing with low-power MCU GPIOs without buffer stages.
It delivers 50 A/µs critical rate of rise of on-state current (dl/dt) and withstands 400 V/µs transient overvoltage (dV/dt) at 125 °C junction temperature, supporting stable operation in noisy industrial AC environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IT(RMS) | 8 A - Sustains continuous AC load current up to 8 A RMS at Tc = 110 °C, suitable for medium-power motor and heater control. |
| VDRM / VRRM | 600 V - Blocks 600 V peak AC line voltage, compatible with 230 VAC mains with safety margin. |
| IGT (max) | 35 mA - Gate trigger current threshold enabling direct drive from 3.3 V/5 V microcontrollers with minimal external circuitry. |
| dV/dt (min) | 400 V/µs - High transient immunity prevents false triggering during voltage spikes in inductive switching. |
| Rth(j-c) | 1.6 °C/W - Low junction-to-case thermal resistance enables efficient heatsinking in compact D²PAK layouts. |
| VTM (max) | 1.55 V - On-state voltage drop at 11 A pulse ensures low conduction loss and thermal stress at rated current. |
| (dl/dt)c (min) | 3.5 A/ms - Critical rate of decrease of main current supports reliable commutation in inductive loads without snubber networks. |
Pinout & Package
D²PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package with isolated tab (non-insulated version), 3-terminal configuration, and copper pad optimized for thermal dissipation on FR4 PCBs with ≥1 cm² copper area.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | Main terminal 1 (MT1) | Reference terminal for gate triggering; connected to neutral or low-side AC path in standard phase-control topologies. |
| A2 | Main terminal 2 (MT2) | High-side AC load connection; carries full RMS current and must be routed with adequate creepage/clearance for 600 V isolation. |
| G | Gate | Control input referenced to A1; accepts 35 mA max trigger pulse to initiate conduction in quadrants I, II, and III. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Snubberless operation | Validated for inductive loads up to 600 V without external RC snubbers, reducing BOM count and board space. |
| Logic-level gate sensitivity | 35 mA IGT max enables direct interface with 3.3 V/5 V MCUs-no level-shifting or driver IC required. |
| High commutation robustness | (dl/dt)c ≥ 3.5 A/ms at 125 °C ensures reliable turn-off under worst-case inductive current decay. |
| D²PAK thermal performance | Rth(j-c) = 1.6 °C/W allows >7 W power dissipation with modest heatsinking, supporting compact industrial designs. |
| Three-quadrant operation | Triggers only in quadrants I, II, and III-eliminates false triggering from quadrant IV noise while retaining AC bidirectional control. |
Applications
| Motor Speed Control | Heating Regulation |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Variable-speed control of single-phase induction motors in HVAC blowers and appliance fans. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Phase-angle controlled AC switch regulating RMS voltage applied to motor windings. Use Value: Enables smooth speed ramping and energy-efficient operation without mechanical gearboxes or VFD complexity. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zero-crossing or phase-controlled AC power switch modulating average heat output. Use Value: Achieves ±1% temperature stability using simple microcontroller timing-no analog feedback loop needed. |
| Light Dimming | Static Relay Replacement |
|
Use Scenario: Leading-edge dimming of incandescent and halogen lamps in commercial lighting systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional AC switch triggered at adjustable phase angle to reduce lamp RMS voltage. Use Value: Delivers flicker-free dimming down to 5% brightness with <10 µs timing jitter across temperature range. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fail-safe ON/OFF AC power switch with galvanic isolation via optocoupler-driven gate. Use Value: Eliminates contact wear, bounce, and EMI-supports >1 million cycles versus <100k for mechanical relays. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| T835-600B-TR | DPAK package (Rth(j-c) = 2.5 °C/W), lower thermal capability than D²PAK; same electrical specs. | Better suited for low-power, space-constrained PCBs where heatsinking is limited. | Select when board area is constrained and power dissipation remains ≤4 W. |
| BTA08-600CW | TO-220AB insulated package, 35 mA IGT, but 4-quadrant operation and higher Rth(j-c) = 2.5 °C/W. | Requires insulation clearance for high-voltage isolation; less immune to quadrant IV noise. | Prefer when mounting to metal chassis or safety-critical isolation is mandatory. |
Compared with T835-600G-TR, the DPAK variant trades thermal performance for footprint size, while the TO-220AB insulated alternative adds mechanical mounting flexibility and reinforced isolation-but at the cost of higher thermal resistance and larger board real estate.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?
The T835-600G-TR has an operating junction temperature range of –40 °C to +125 °C. Continuous operation at 125 °C requires maintaining case temperature ≤110 °C per absolute maximum ratings, achievable with proper PCB copper area (≥1 cm²) and optional heatsinking.
Does this triac require a snubber circuit for inductive loads?
No. The T835-600G-TR is a certified snubberless triac-its high commutation performance (minimum (dl/dt)c = 3.5 A/ms at 125 °C) ensures reliable turn-off in inductive loads like motors and transformers without external RC snubbers.
Can it be driven directly by a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO?
Yes. With a maximum gate trigger current (IGT) of 35 mA and gate trigger voltage (VGT) ≤1.2 V, the T835-600G-TR interfaces directly with 3.3 V or 5 V MCUs using a series resistor (e.g., 100 Ω for 3.3 V) to limit peak gate current to <4 A.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient in typical layout?
In a standard FR4 PCB with 1 cm² copper area under the D²PAK tab, Rth(j-a) is approximately 45 °C/W (typical). This value scales inversely with copper area-doubling copper area reduces Rth(j-a) by ~30%, per Figure 12 in DS2114.
