Overview

The G3VM-201G1 is a compact solid-state MOS FET relay designed for high-voltage switching applications up to 200V. This photo-coupled device provides an SPST-NO (1 Form A) circuit configuration in a small 4-SOP package, offering an alternative to traditional electromechanical relays with no moving parts to wear out. It is capable of handling load currents up to 200mA with a maximum on-state resistance of 8 Ohms.

Why Choose This Part

The G3VM-201G1 features a high load voltage rating of 200V while maintaining a low 200mA footprint, making it versatile for both AC and DC loads. Its solid-state construction eliminates contact bounce and acoustic noise while significantly extending the operational lifespan compared to mechanical switches. The 4-SOP package provides a significant space reduction on high-density PCBs.

Applications

Industrial Control Systems
Used for isolated signal switching in PLC output modules and industrial automation equipment.

Getting Started

To drive the G3VM-201G1, provide a forward current to the input LED (typical voltage 1.15VDC) while ensuring the input current does not exceed the maximum rating. It is recommended to use a series resistor to limit the LED current based on your logic level voltage. For prototyping, the 2.54mm pin pitch allows for easier handling on adapter boards before integrating into surface-mount production layouts.
