Overview

The AQV252GAX is a high-capacity PhotoMOS solid-state relay designed for switching AC or DC loads up to 60V. It features a SPST-NO (1 Form A) configuration in a 6-pin surface mount package, providing high galvanic isolation between the input and output stages. This component is optimized for low on-resistance and high reliability in switching applications where mechanical relays would fail due to wear.

Why Choose This Part

This photorelay offers a high load current capacity of 2.5A and low power consumption with a 10uA sleep current. Its solid-state construction eliminates contact bounce and electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensuring a significantly longer operational life compared to electromechanical alternatives. The 6-SMD gull-wing package is suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly and high-density PCB layouts.

Applications

Industrial Data Acquisition
Used for high-speed switching of sensor signals and multiplexing inputs to a central processor.
PLC Output Modules
Acts as a silent, long-life interface between low-power logic controllers and industrial actuators or indicators.
Security System Control
Ideal for controlling door strikes, sirens, or strobe lights in alarm panels requiring 60V load support.
Automated Test Equipment (ATE)
Provides precise, bounce-free switching for testing semiconductor components or PCBA circuits.

Getting Started

To drive the input, ensure a forward current is applied to the internal LED, typically via a current-limiting resistor sized for the 1.14VDC input voltage. For high-current DC loads, utilize the 'B' or 'C' connection methods described in the datasheet to maximize current handling and thermal performance. Ensure the PCB layout provides adequate creepage and clearance distances to maintain the rated isolation voltage.
