Overview

The TQ2-L2-5V is a dual-coil latching signal relay designed for high-sensitivity switching in a compact DPDT (2 Form C) configuration. It features a 5VDC coil voltage and a low-profile through-hole package, making it ideal for maintaining contact state without continuous power consumption. With a fast 3 ms operate and release time, it is well-suited for high-density telecommunications and instrumentation applications.

Why Choose This Part

The dual-coil latching design allows for permanent state retention with only a brief 40 mA pulse, significantly reducing thermal dissipation in dense arrays. Its gold-clad silver contacts ensure low contact resistance and high switching reliability for low-level signals.

Applications

Telecommunications Equipment
Switching signal paths in PBX systems and central office equipment where high reliability is required.
Battery-Powered Instrumentation
Utilizing the dual-coil latching mechanism to eliminate coil power consumption once the state is set, extending battery life.
Test and Measurement Systems
Providing clean, low-latency signal routing in automated test equipment and signal scanners.
Medical Electronics
Used in monitoring and diagnostic equipment that requires small-signal switching in a compact footprint.

Getting Started

When designing for the TQ2-L2-5V, ensure your driver circuit provides the minimum set and reset pulse durations specified in the datasheet to guarantee reliable latching. Use a dual-channel low-side switch or an H-bridge configuration to control the two separate coils from a 5V logic source.
