Providing a rugged interface between standard logic and 3 to 6-V dc inductive loads, the DRDC3105 relay driver is designed to handle relays, solenoids, incandescent lamps and small motors in a wide ...

One of the most frustrating challenges for control engineers and specialists is the potential early failure of interposing or interfacing relays used to drive inductive loads. This is especially true ...

This chapter covers representative general-purpose relays used in the control circuits of most industrial, commercial, and consumer products. Relay names and terminology are in accordance with ...

Solid-state relays are much smaller than corresponding single-pole relays. They are also faster, dissipate less power, and withstand a larger number of operations. And unlike electromechanical relays, ...

Mechanical relays, contactors, and switches control the flow of electricity by the mechanical action of two conducting elements. The physical contact of two conducting elements creates a path for ...

The DRDC3105 integrates a complete solid-state relay driver into a single, surface-mount package, minimizing the PCB footprint, reducing component count and improving the reliability of inductive load ...
