Telecom Relay DPDT (2 Form C) Surface Mount
Active556 in stock

Overview

The TX2SA-5V-Z is a compact, surface-mount telecom relay from Panasonic, featuring a DPDT (2 Form C) contact arrangement. It is designed for high sensitivity with a 140mW nominal operating power and provides high surge resistance, making it suitable for demanding signal switching applications. The sealed construction ensures the device can withstand automatic washing processes during PCB assembly.

Why Choose This Part

This relay offers outstanding surge resistance and a high breakdown voltage of 2,000 V between the contact and coil. Its gold-clad twin crossbar contacts ensure high contact reliability for low-level signal switching. The surface-mount SA package and sealed housing allow for high-density PCB layouts and compatibility with automated cleaning.

Applications

Telecommunications Equipment
Ideal for xDSL and transmission equipment requiring reliable signal switching in a small footprint.
Measurement and Instrumentation
Used in test equipment to route low-level signals with minimal interference thanks to gold-clad twin crossbar contacts.
Security Systems
Reliable switching for alarm control panels and sensor monitoring circuits.
Medical Equipment
High breakdown voltage between contact and coil (2,000 V) makes it suitable for sensitive medical electronics.

Getting Started

When integrating this relay, ensure the driving circuit can provide the 28.1 mA nominal coil current at 5VDC. It is recommended to include a flyback diode across the coil to protect sensitive driver electronics from back-EMF spikes during de-energization. Observe the 4 ms operate and release times for timing-critical switching sequences.
