G5Q-14-DC5
Overview
The G5Q-14-DC5 is a compact, single-pole double-throw (SPDT) power relay designed for PCB mounting. It features a 5VDC coil and is built to withstand high impulse voltages up to 8kV, making it suitable for switching power loads in residential and industrial environments.
Why Choose This Part
This relay offers a high insulation system (Class F) and excellent impulse withstand voltage between the coil and contacts. Its small footprint (approx. 20.3mm x 10.3mm) allows for high-density PCB layouts while maintaining reliable power switching performance.
Applications
Getting Started
When designing for the G5Q-14-DC5, ensure a flyback diode is placed across the 5VDC coil to protect driving circuitry from inductive spikes. Verify that the PCB trace widths are sufficient for the intended load current and maintain appropriate creepage and clearance distances for high-voltage isolation.
