ALZ12F05
Overview
The ALZ12F05 is a compact, through-hole power relay from Panasonic's ALZ series, designed for high-capacity switching up to 16A at 250VAC. This SPDT (1 Form C) relay features a 5VDC non-latching coil and a Class F insulation rating, making it suitable for high-temperature environments up to 105 degrees Celsius. Its fully sealed construction allows for reliable operation in harsh conditions and compatibility with automated soldering and cleaning processes.
Why Choose This Part
The ALZ12F05 offers a high switching capacity of 16A in a relatively small footprint, saving PCB real estate in dense power designs. It is rated for operation up to 105 degrees Celsius and features a 10kV surge breakdown voltage between the coil and contacts, ensuring robust protection for control electronics.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
When integrating this relay, ensure the 5VDC control circuit can provide the required 80mA coil current, typically via a BJT or MOSFET driver with a flyback diode. Maintain adequate creepage and clearance distances around the high-voltage SPDT terminals to meet safety standards like UL/cURus and VDE.
