PVN012S General Description

The PVN012 Series Photovoltaic Relay at 100milliohms features the lowest possible on-stateresistance in a miniature package — lower than acomparable reed relay.The PVN012 is a single-pole, normally open solid-state relay. It utilizes a GenerationV HEXFET outputswitch, driven by an integrated circuit photovoltaicgenerator of novel construction. The output switch iscontrolled by radiation from a GaAlAs light emittingdiode (LED) which is optically isolated from thephotovoltaic generator.These units exceed the performance capabilities ofelectromechanical relays in life, sensitivity, stable on-resistance, miniaturization, magnetic insensitivity andruggedness. They are ideally suited for switchinghigh currents or low level signals without distortionor injection of electrical noise.Series PVN012 Relays are packaged in a6-lead molded DIP package with either thru-hole orsurface mount (gull-wing) terminals. They areavailable in standard plastic shipping tubes or ontape-and-reel. Please refer to part identificationinformation opposite.
