Small Package Size. Fast-Switching Speed and Low Capacitance.
Panasonic PhotoMOS® Relays are MOSFET-enabled Solid State Relays featuring low off-state leakage current and stable on-resistance over the component lifetime. Low CxR values, high optical isolation between input and output, and DC and AC / DC load ratings. MOSFET drivers available in SSOP, SOP 4-pin, and DIP 6-pin.
PhotoMOS® brand Relays from Panasonic are also sometimes referred to as:
- Photo Relays
- Photo Voltaic Relays
- Solid State Relays
- MOS-FET Relays
