PVD1354N

100 V, 550 mA single-pole Photovoltaic Relay in a mod. 8-pin DIP Package. This normally open solid-state relay can replace electromechanical relays used for general purpose switching of analog signals. The PVD13 Series overcomes the limitations of both conventional electromechanical and reed relays by offering the solid state advantages of long life, fast operating speed, low pick up power, bounce-free operation, low thermal offset voltages and miniature package. These advantages allow product improvement and design innovations in many applications such as process control, multiplexing, automatic test equipment and data acquisition. The PVD13 can switch analog signals from thermocouple level to 100 Volts peak DC. Signal frequencies into the RF range are easily controlled and switching rates up to 450Hz are achievable. The extremely small thermally generated offset voltages allow increased measurement accuracies.
