Solid State Photo-Coupled Relay (Photorelay) SPST-NO (1 Form A) 6-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm)
Active2,706 in stock

Overview

The PVG612PBF is a single-pole, normally open (1 Form A) solid-state photovoltaic relay designed to switch AC or DC loads up to 60V and 1A. It utilizes a HEXFET power MOSFET output stage driven by a GaAlAs light-emitting diode, providing 4,000V of input-to-output isolation in a compact 6-DIP package.

Why Choose This Part

The component offers bounce-free operation and solid-state reliability, eliminating the mechanical wear associated with traditional relays. It features a very high load current capacity for its package size and maintains linear AC/DC operation with high off-state resistance.

Applications

Industrial Control Systems
Replacing electromechanical relays in PLC output modules for high-reliability switching.
Data Acquisition
Signal multiplexing and scanning where high off-state resistance and bounce-free operation are critical.
Peripheral Switching
Driving small motors, solenoids, and lamps in automated test equipment and instrumentation.
