TMA166H-L
Triac (Bidirectional Triode Thyristor)
Features and Benefits
Description
▪ Exceptional reliability
▪ Small fully-molded SIP package with heatsink mounting
for high thermal dissipation and long life
▪ VDRM of 600 V
▪ 16 ARMS on-state current
▪ Uniform switching
▪ UL Recognized Component
This Sanken triac (bidirectional triode thyristor) is designed
for AC power control, providing reliable, uniform switching
for full-cycle AC applications.
Package: 3-pin SIP (TO-220F)
Applications
In comparison with other products on the market, the TMA166H-L
provides increased isolation voltage (1800 VAC RMS),
guaranteed for up to 1 minute, and greater peak nonrepetitive
off-state voltage, VDSM (700 V). In addition, commutation
dv/dt and (dv/dt)c are improved.
▪ Residential and commercial appliances: vacuum cleaners,
rice cookers, TVs, home entertainment
▪ White goods: washing machines
▪ Office automation power control, photocopiers
▪ Motor control for small tools
▪ Temperature control, light dimmers, electric blankets
▪ General use switching mode power supplies (SMPS)

TMA166H-L
Triac (Bidirectional Triode Thyristor)
WARNING — These devices are designed to be operated at lethal voltages and energy levels. Circuit designs
that embody these components must conform with applicable safety requirements. Precautions must be
taken to prevent accidental contact with power-line potentials. Do not connect grounded test equipment.
The use of an isolation transformer is recommended during circuit development and breadboarding.
Because reliability can be affected adversely by improper storage
environments and handling methods, please observe the following
cautions.
Cautions for Storage
•
Ensure that storage conditions comply with the standard
temperature (5°C to 35°C) and the standard relative humidity
(approximately 40% to 75%); avoid storage locations that
experience extreme changes in temperature or humidity.
•
Avoid locations where dust or harmful gases are present and
avoid direct sunlight.
•
Reinspect for rust on leads and solderability of products that have
been stored for a long time.
Cautions for Testing and Handling
When tests are carried out during inspection testing and other
standard test periods, protect the products from power surges
from the testing device, shorts between adjacent products, and
shorts to the heatsink.
Remarks About Using Silicone Grease with a Heatsink
• When silicone grease is used in mounting this product on a
heatsink, it shall be applied evenly and thinly. If more silicone
grease than required is applied, it may produce stress.
• Coat the back surface of the product and both surfaces of the
insulating plate to improve heat transfer between the product and
the heatsink.
• Volatile-type silicone greases may permeate the product and
produce cracks after long periods of time, resulting in reduced
heat radiation effect, and possibly shortening the lifetime of the
product.
• Our recommended silicone greases for heat radiation purposes,
which will not cause any adverse effect on the product life, are
indicated below:
Type
Suppliers
G746
Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.
YG6260
Momentive Performance Materials
SC102
Dow Corning Toray Silicone Co., Ltd.
Heatsink Mounting Method
• Torque When Tightening Mounting Screws. Thermal resistance
increases when tightening torque is low, and radiation effects are
decreased. When the torque is too high, the screw can strip, the
heatsink can be deformed, and distortion can arise in the product frame.
To avoid these problems, observe the recommended tightening torques
for this product package type 0.490 to 0.686 N•m (5 to 7 kgf•cm).
• For effective heat transfer, the contact area between the product and
the heatsink should be free from burrs and metal fragments, and the
heatsink should be flat and large enough to contact over the entire side
of the product, including mounting flange and exposed thermal pad.
• The mounting hole in customer-supplied heatsink must be less than
Ø4 mm; this includes the diameter of any dimple around punched holes.
This is to prevent possible deflection and cracking of the product case
when fastened to the heatsink.
Soldering
•
When soldering the products, please be sure to minimize the
working time, within the following limits:
260°C 10 s
350°C 3 s
• Soldering iron should be at a distance of at least 1.5 mm from the
body of the products
