Power MOSFET Photovoltaic Relay
Single Pole, Normally Open, 0-60V, 1.0A AC/ 2.0 A DC
General Description
The PVG612 Series Photovoltaic Relay is a single-pole,
normally open solid-state relay that can replace
electromechanical relays in many applications. It util-
izes International Rectifier鈥檚 proprietary HEXFET
power MOSFET as the output switch, driven by an
integrated circuit photovoltaic generator of novel
construction. The output switch is controlled by ra-
diation from a GaAlAs light emitting diode (LED)
which is optically isolated from the photovoltaic
generator.
These units exceed the performance capabilities of
electromechanical relays in operating life, sensitiv-
ity, stability of on-resistance, miniaturization, insen-
sitivity to magnetic fields and ruggedess. The com-
pact PVG612 is particularly suited for isolated switch-
ing of high currents from 12 to 48 Volt AC or DC
power sources.
Series PVG612 Relays are packaged in a 6-pin,
molded DIP package with either through-hole or sur-
face mount (gull-wing) terminals. It is available in
standard plastic shipping tubes or on tape-and-reel.
