About this product
BTA16 is a 16 A, 600 V triac in a TO-220 plastic package, used to switch AC loads. It is found in AC power control circuits such as lamp dimmers, heater controls and motor speed controllers, where a microcontroller or low-power trigger switches a mains-level load.

Can I drive the BTA16 directly from an Arduino pin?
No. The triac gate must be isolated from the microcontroller, typically through an opto-isolated triac driver. Connecting it directly can damage the Arduino and is unsafe on mains voltage.
Is 600 V enough for 230 V mains?
The 600 V repetitive peak off-state rating covers 230 V AC mains with margin. A mains design still needs fusing, snubber design, adequate heatsinking for the 16 A rating and an enclosure that meets safety requirements.
