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

Telecommunication Equipment
Switching signal lines in telephone systems and networking hardware due to FCC Part 68 compliance.
Test and Measurement
Routing low-current signals between measurement nodes in automated test equipment.
Security Systems
Controlling low-power indicators or triggering logic-level inputs in alarm panels.
Consumer Electronics
Managing internal signal routing or small power loads in compact household appliances.

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.
