G6K-2F-Y-DC12
Overview
The G6K-2F-Y-DC12 is a compact, surface-mount DPDT telecom relay designed for high-density PCB layouts. It features a 12VDC non-latching coil with a low current consumption of approximately 9.1 mA and a fully sealed construction to withstand soldering and cleaning processes. This relay is specifically engineered for high dielectric strength and impulse withstand voltage, meeting Telcordia and BSI standards.
Why Choose This Part
The relay offers an extremely small footprint of 10mm x 6.5mm with a low profile height of 5.2mm, saving significant PCB real estate. It provides high reliability with silver/gold contact materials and a 1,500 VAC dielectric strength between coil and contacts. Rapid switching performance is guaranteed with maximum operate and release times of just 3 ms.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
When designing for the G6K-2F-Y-DC12, ensure the PCB footprint accounts for the 2.54mm pitch of the surface-mount terminals. Because it is a non-latching relay, continuous power is required to maintain the set position, so thermal management should be considered for high-density arrays. Use a flyback diode across the 12V coil to protect sensitive driver circuitry from inductive spikes during release.
