New high voltage smd reed relays from Pickering can switch up
to 1kV Relay range also offers voltage isolation of up to 3kV switch stand-off
The leading manufacturer of high performance reed relays, Pickering Electronics, has announced its first high voltage surface mount reed relays, known as the Series 219, at Productronica, the world’s leading trade fair for the electronics manufacturing industry. Available in multiple package types (of the same size, but with differing pin positions), these reed relays can switch up to 1000V in 1 Form A (SPST), 2 Form A (DPST), and 1 Form B (SPNC) contact configurations; switch stand-off is up to 3000V, while switch-coil isolation is up to 5000V stand-off.
Series 219 surface mount reed relays are an excellent choice for a range of high voltage applications, including mixed signal semiconductor testers, medical equipment testing, EV (electric vehicle) charge point testing, and monitoring solar cell photovoltaic efficiency. Within the Series 219 range, all contact configurations are offered with three coil voltages, 3V, 5V,
or 12V. Switch stand-off is up to 1.5kV in the 2 Form A package, up to 2kV in 1 Form B, and up to 3kV in the 1 Form A package, while switch-coil isolation is up to 5kV stand-off in 1 Form A and 1 Form B types. Switching is up to 0.7A and 10W, while the operating temperature range spans from -40o
C to +105o C.
All part numbers are offered with a diode option. Suppression diodes are placed within the relay to protect the device driving the relay coil against back emf which is generated when the current flow to the coil is interrupted. The drop in current causes a voltage to rise which can damage other components on a PCB board such as the coil drive.

Nicomatic introduces new mate-before-lock mechanism for all DMM connectors
New captive screw fixing hardware provides quick, easy & secure mating and is compatible with all DMM connectors
To improve the speed, ease and security of mating for its MIL-SPEC DMM rugged 2mm pitch metal connectors, leading manufacturer
of high-performance interconnect systems, Nicomatic has introduced the D53C, a new captive screw option for all DMM connectors. This new ‘mate-before-lock’ fixing hardware provides rapid, simple and secure mating, preventing contact damage and ensuring the screw cannot be lost. Nicomatic DMM connectors comply with MIL-DTL-83513G performance standards and enable a wide range of modularity compared to other MIL-SPEC connectors, such as Micro-D or Sub-D. Engineers can customize pin count (both row and contact number), pin contact type (signal, power and coax/RF) and mounting style (board to board, board to wire, wire to wire, or panel mount) options. DMM connectors also allow space-saving, as well as providing electromagnetic and mechanical protection. The D53C is a new captive screw option developed by Nicomatic for all its DMM connectors. Its ‘mate- before-lock’ mechanism securely places and mates the connector before the screw is tightened. Being captive, the fixing hardware stays attached to the connector, even when unscrewed; this prevents the screw from getting lost and causing damage to the equipment. Using the D53C is as simple as:
