PD 1.030D
Series PVA30
BOSFET Photovoltaic Relay
®
Microelectronic Power IC Relay Single-Pole, 40mA, 0-300V AC/DC
General Description
The Photovoltaic AC Relay (PVA) is a single-pole, normally open solid state replacement for electro-mechanical relays used for general purpose switching of analog signals. It utilizes as an output switch a unique bidirectional (AC or DC) MOSFET power IC termed a BOSFET. The BOSFET is controlled by a photovoltaic generator of novel construction, which is energized by radiation from a dielectrically isolated light emitting diode (LED). The PVA30 series combines very low solid state output capacitance, very high off-state resistance and very fast response.
