Overview

The G6K-2P-Y-DC3 is a surface-mount or through-hole compatible low-signal DPDT relay designed for precise switching in space-constrained applications. Operating at a low coil voltage of 3VDC with a power consumption of approximately 100mW, it is highly efficient for battery-powered or low-power embedded systems. Its fully sealed construction and compact 5.2mm height make it suitable for high-density PCB layouts requiring reliable signal routing.

Why Choose This Part

This relay offers high sensitivity with a low 100mW power consumption, significantly reducing heat dissipation on the PCB. It features a unique terminal structure that ensures high soldering reliability and is fully sealed to withstand harsh board washing processes. The DPDT configuration allows for versatile dual-path switching within a footprint of only 6.5mm by 10mm.

Getting Started

When integrating this relay, ensure the driving circuit can provide the 33mA coil current at 3VDC, typically using a BJT or MOSFET driver with a flyback diode. Maintain the recommended PCB land pattern to ensure the 5.2mm profile is utilized correctly in high-density stacks. For low-level switching, note that the contacts are rated down to 10 microamps at 10mVDC.
