Getting Started

For typical integration, connect the 5VDC coil to a suitable drive circuit, such as a transistor or dedicated relay driver IC, capable of sourcing 40 mA. The SPST-NO contacts can then be wired into the circuit path requiring switching. Ensure proper current limiting and flyback diode protection for the coil.
