Overview

The G5V-1-T90 DC12 is a compact, SPDT (1 Form C) low-signal relay designed for high-density mounting on printed circuit boards. It features a fully sealed construction to withstand soldering and cleaning processes while operating on a nominal 12VDC coil voltage. This relay is capable of switching loads up to 1A and handles maximum voltages of 125VAC or 60VDC.

Why Choose This Part

This relay offers a fast 5ms operate and release time, ensuring responsive switching for time-sensitive signals. Its fully sealed plastic housing provides environmental protection, while the T90 variant supports an extended operating temperature range up to 90 degrees Celsius.

Applications

Telecommunications Equipment
Switching signal paths in networking hardware and communication interfaces due to its high sensitivity and low power consumption.
Security Systems
Controlling alarm triggers and sensor loops in residential and commercial security panels.
Small Appliance Control
Managing power switching for internal logic circuits or small actuator motors in consumer electronics.
Industrial Logic Interfacing
Serving as an isolation barrier between low-voltage microcontroller logic and higher-voltage peripheral devices.
