G5V-1-T90 DC12
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
Key Specifications
Getting Started
To integrate this relay, ensure a flyback diode is placed across the 12V coil pins to protect driving transistors from inductive spikes. Use standard 0.1 inch pitch PCB through-hole footprints and verify that trace widths can support the maximum 1A contact current.
