Series PVN012PbF
Microelectronic Power IC
HEXFET® 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 — lower than a comparable reed relay.
The PVN012 is a single-pole, normally open solidstate 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.
