New 10W reed relay from Pickering Electronics
suits high-PCB-density applications Extends 4mm2TM reed relay range; suits high speed test systems
Pickering Electronics, the reed relay company which has pioneered miniaturisation and high performance for over 50 years, has added a new 10W-rated reed relay to its successful 4mm2TM product family which features devices that occupy a PCB footprint of only 4mm x 4mm, facilitating the highest packing density currently available. Series 122 relays measure 12.5mm in height and are rated with a switching current of 0.5A at 10W. 3V and 5V coils are available.
Fast operate and release times, typically 150 s or less, make Series 122 relays ideal for high speed test systems such as A.T.E. switching matrices or multiplexers. The 1 Form A (SPST) Normally Open (NO) Energise-to-make devices feature highest-quality, instrumentation-grade sputtered-ruthenium switches and plastic packages with internal mu-metal magnetic screening to avoid the risk of magnetic interaction issues in densely-packed applications. Devices have an insulation resistance of greater than 1012 and are 100%-tested for dynamic contact resistance to guarantee performance.
For ease of servicing/replacement, relays maybe socketed using SMD or through-hole sockets. However, care must be taken to mitigate the risk of affecting contact resistance integrity.
