Microelectronic Power IC
HEXFET
廬
Power MOSFET Photovoltaic Relay
Single Pole, Normally Open, 0-20V, 2.5A AC/ 4.5A DC
General Description
The PVN012 Series Photovoltaic Relay at 100
milliohms features the lowest possible on-state
resistance in a miniature package 鈥?lower than a
comparable reed relay.
The PVN012 is a single-pole, normally open solid-
state relay. It utilizes a GenerationV HEXFET output
switch, driven by an integrated circuit photovoltaic
generator of novel construction. The output switch is
controlled by radiation 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 life, sensitivity, stable on-
resistance, miniaturization, magnetic insensitivity and
ruggedness. They are ideally suited for switching
high currents or low level signals without distortion
or injection of electrical noise.
Series PVN012 Relays are packaged in a
6-lead molded DIP package with either through-hole
or surface mount (gull-wing) terminals. They are avail-
able in standard plastic shipping tubes or on tape-
and-reel. Please refer to part identification information
opposite.
