Q6016RH2TP Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Q6016RH2TP is an Alternistor-type TRIAC manufactured by Littelfuse Inc., designed for alternating current switching applications requiring 600 V off-state voltage and 16 A on-state current capability. This snubberless TRIAC operates across the industrial temperature range of -40°C to 125°C and is housed in a TO-220AB package for through-hole mounting. The part maintains Active product status with full RoHS3 and REACH compliance. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility can be maintained across the specified parameter set.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Q6016RH2TP is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Voltage - Off State: 600 V (exact match required)
• Current - On State (It (RMS)) (Max): 16 A (exact match required)
• Voltage - Gate Trigger (Vgt) (Max): 1.3 V (exact match required)
• Current - Gate Trigger (Igt) (Max): 10 mA (exact match required)
• Current - Hold (Ih) (Max): 15 mA (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C (exact match required)
• Package / Case: TO-220-3 (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Configuration: Single (exact match required)

The BTA16-600SWRG meets all specified electrical and mechanical parameters, differing only in TRIAC type classification (Logic - Sensitive Gate versus Alternistor - Snubberless) and non-repetitive surge current ratings, which do not affect substitution eligibility within the defined parameter set.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Q6016RH2TP and BTA16-600SWRG maintain Active product status and satisfy identical compliance requirements under RoHS3 and REACH regulations. Both components carry MSL Level 1 classification, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage or handling. Selection between these parts may be based on availability, lead time, or established supplier relationships, as electrical and mechanical specifications are equivalent within the defined parameter set. Both manufacturers provide components suitable for industrial AC switching applications across the specified temperature range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the BTA16-600SWRG directly replace the Q6016RH2TP in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts meet identical specifications for voltage rating (600 V), on-state current (16 A), gate trigger parameters (1.3 V, 10 mA), hold current (15 mA), operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C), and TO-220-3 package configuration. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between Alternistor and Logic - Sensitive Gate TRIAC types?

A: These classifications describe internal gate sensitivity characteristics. Both part types meet the specified gate trigger voltage and current parameters provided in this reference. Differences in internal architecture do not affect substitution eligibility when all electrical parameters are equivalent.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts are RoHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry identical MSL Level 1 ratings. Both are suitable for applications requiring regulatory compliance in industrial and consumer markets.

Q: Does the non-repetitive surge current rating affect substitution?

A: The non-repetitive surge current ratings (Q6016RH2TP: 167 A / 200 A; BTA16-600SWRG: 160 A / 168 A) are provided for reference but do not determine substitution eligibility within this parameter set. Applications requiring specific surge current performance should be evaluated separately against individual part datasheets.

Q: What mounting considerations apply to both parts?

A: Both parts use identical TO-220-3 through-hole packaging. PCB footprint, lead spacing, and thermal mounting requirements are equivalent. Existing board designs require no modification for component interchange.
