G5V-1 DC24
Overview
The G5V-1 DC24 is an ultra-miniature, single-pole double-throw (SPDT) low signal relay designed for PCB mounting. It features a fully-sealed construction and high sensitivity, requiring only 150mW of nominal power to operate the 24VDC coil. This relay is FCC Part 68 compliant, making it suitable for telecommunications and signal switching applications where space is at a premium.
Why Choose This Part
Its ultra-miniature footprint of 12.5mm by 7.5mm allows for high-density PCB layouts. The fully-sealed plastic construction ensures reliability in harsh environments and allows for automated water-wash cleaning after soldering. With a fast 5ms operate and release time, it provides responsive switching for time-sensitive control logic.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
When integrating this relay, ensure a flyback diode is placed across the 24VDC coil to protect driving transistors from inductive spikes. The 2.54mm pitch pins are compatible with standard breadboards and protoboards for prototyping, though the fully-sealed package is primarily intended for wave or manual soldering on a PCB. Verify that the load does not exceed the 1A maximum output current rating to prevent contact welding.
