    Triac alternatives

    Hi All,

    I'm trying to repair a coffee machine where the triac that controls the 240VAC water pump has failed and is latched on.

    The water pump is controlled either on or off.

    The triac is a surface mount BTA204S-800E. (datasheet attached)

    I have a selection of other non surface mount triacs and need advise on selecting a substitute.

    The triacs include BTA16, BT131, BTA208, BTA12, BT138, BTA06

    Any help would be great.

    Many thanks.

    ZD-915 vacuum pump motor mount service alert
    by sam_sam_sam
    If you have this Desoldering Gun Station there is something you should be aware of the two screws that hold the motor to mounting for pump can come loose and make raddling noise

    One note this unit has been repaired already once because of switching power supply regulator ic chip failure
    Now this with the vacuum motor mounting issue yes I give this Desoldering station a very hard work out and use about every weekend to do some type of project

    The fix is taking the vacuum pump assembly out and take the metal cover off and you will see the two screws on it

    TRIAC circuit
    by прямо
    Anyone is familiar with a TRIAC circuit?

    I came across this schematic, and I built it, but I can't seem to figure it out why I'm getting a low AC voltage output at the TRIAC terminals.

    With 230V AC hot side at the TRIAC MT2, I measured 60V AC between MT1 and neutral side when the comparator output LED indicator is on, and 20V AC when it is off.

    Same result if 230V AC hot side is at MT1, and I measured between MT2 and neutral side.

    My heating element doesn't work with 60V AC. It's not even getting hot and the thermocouple amplifier output is a...

    Identifying a 'FS45' SOT23 device
    by Nevillet
    Hi All,

    I'm trying to repair a PCB that has some surface mount SOT23 devices that apear to be transistors but testing them on the board are giving confusing results.

    Its named FS45 but I can't find a datasheet that seems correct.

    The device is used in 10 places on the PCB. In 4 cases they appear to be controling triacs and the attached picture it shows it connected to a BT136 triac with the FS45 connected to the gate leg of the BT136.

    Can anyone identify the device and suggest an alternative?

    Many thanks.

    PS: I have...

    triac phase control 0-100%
    by harp
    Trying to understand which properties of circuit affect triac phase range, is it possible to control near whole period, or it have some limitations - on net found a couple circuit, that claims almost full control, but in the past I build some simple circuit and remember that it do only half of control over triac?...
