Series PVT422
HEXFET® POWER MOSFET PHOTOVOLTAIC RELAY
Microelectronic Power IC Relay Dual Pole, Normally Open 0-400V, 120mA AC/DC
General Description
The PVT422 Series Photovoltaic Relay is a dual-pole, normally open solid-state relay that can replace electromechanical relays in many applications. It utilizes International Rectifier’s HEXFET power MOSFET as the 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. Series PVT422 Relays are packaged in an 8pin, molded DIP package with either thru-hole or “gull-wing” surface mount terminals.
