SSROZ TRIAC QUESTION

[Aurbo99]

Greetings

Just looking to confirm the BTA08-400B Triac can be replaced with http://www.nteinc.com/specs/5600to5699/pdf/nte5645.pdf

I am hoping to confirm no pinout orientation is required before I solder them down.

On a similar note; anyone looking for an NTE equivalent component can use this link.. I've been using it for years to find cross-matching components.

Cheers

The pinout looks fine, A1 <==> MT1 and A2 <==> MT2. The dv/dt spec on that part is horrible, although I don't think that will cause you any problems.

The pricing on the NTE parts is always very high, so I only use them when I need a part quick and can get to Fry's.

Yes, we still have a Fry's grocery stores here.

here is a tidbit compliments of wikipedia!

In 1972, Charles Fry sold the Fry's Supermarkets chain for USD $40 million and gave a cut of the money to each of his sons, John, Randy, and Dave.[2] The Fry brothers had little interest in grocery store retailing. Instead, in 1985, they joined together with a fourth partner, Kathryn Kolder, to open the first Fry's Electronics store at a 20,000 square foot (2,000 m²) site in Sunnyvale, California.[3] Today, Fry's Food and Drug stores (which still share a similar logo) are not affiliated with Fry's Electronics, but are owned and operated by Kroger.
