Overview

The PVG612APbF is a single-pole, normally open (1 Form A) photovoltaic relay capable of switching AC or DC loads up to 60V and 2A (or 4A in DC-only parallel configuration). Utilizing a HEXFET power MOSFET as the output switch driven by an integrated photovoltaic generator, it provides a solid-state alternative to mechanical relays with 4,000 VRMS I/O isolation.

Why Choose This Part

This relay offers bounce-free operation and high ESD tolerance (4000V HBM), significantly increasing system lifespan compared to electromechanical switches. Its high load current capacity of 2.0A and low on-state resistance allow it to manage significant power in a compact 6-pin DIP package.

Applications

Industrial Load Switching
Driving solenoids, valves, and small motors in PLC-based automation systems where high reliability is required.
Power Distribution
Managing power bus routing in computer peripherals and audio equipment without the noise of mechanical contacts.
Display Control
Controlling large indicator panels and display backlighting systems that require high current capacity.
Isolated Power Supply Control
Acting as an isolated switch within power supply feedback loops or sequencing circuits.

Getting Started

To drive the relay, provide a minimum control current of 5.0mA to the input LED pins; a series resistor is typically required to limit current based on your logic voltage. For DC-only applications, the two output MOSFETs can be connected in parallel to double the continuous load current capacity to 4A.
