Overview

The G5Q-1A4-DC5 is a compact, high-capacity SPST-NO power PCB relay capable of switching loads up to 10A. It operates with a 5VDC coil voltage and features a sealed construction to protect against environmental contaminants during soldering and operation. This relay is designed for efficient power management in space-constrained applications requiring reliable mechanical switching.

Why Choose This Part

This relay offers a high switching capacity of 10A within a small footprint, providing excellent power density. Its sealed design allows for automatic cleaning processes after soldering and ensures long-term reliability in humid or dusty environments. With a low coil power consumption of approximately 400mW, it is suitable for energy-efficient control boards.

Applications

Home Appliances
Switching power to heating elements or motors in washers, dryers, and kitchen electronics.
Building Automation
Controlling HVAC dampers, motorized blinds, and lighting circuits in smart building systems.
Industrial I/O Modules
Providing isolated digital outputs for PLC systems and factory automation controllers.
Lighting Control
Managing high-inrush current loads in commercial and residential LED lighting fixtures.

Getting Started

When integrating this relay, ensure the driving transistor or MCU pin can handle the 80mA coil current, typically requiring a flyback diode to protect against inductive spikes. Maintain proper creepage and clearance distances on the PCB layout between the low-voltage DC coil pins and the high-voltage AC load traces. Refer to the footprint specifications for the 4-pin PCB layout to ensure correct pad spacing for the SPST-NO configuration.
