## **DESCRIPTION** 

Available in high power packages, the **BTW67 / BTW69** Series is suitable in applications where power handling and power dissipation are critical, such as solid state relays, welding equipment, high power motor control. 

Based on a clip assembly technology, they offer a superior performance in surge current handling capabilities. 

Thanks to their internal ceramic pad, they provide high voltage insulation (2500VRMS), complying with UL standards (file ref: E81734).
