Since the mid-1980s, semiconductor technology has promised to provide smart power products for solid-state relays that could carry high current and provide unique functions for customers. However, ...

Sensata Technologies announced the availability of two new three-phase DIN rail- and panel-mount solid-state relays (SSRs), the DR67 and PM67 series, for use in a variety of industrial power ...

New technologies designed to support solar, storage, and smart infrastructure will debut at North America’s largest clean energy event LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OMRON Electronic Components, a global ...

Fujitsu's low-profile power relay series is designed for safety, rated from 1.5 to 110V, and is available with either standard (530mW and 550mW) or high (400mW) sensitivity. The DPST/DPDT 5A PCB power ...

Hybrid relays are changing the way we think about switching inside electronic circuits. By combining the fast response of solid-state components with the reliability of mechanical contacts, these ...

Relays are often used as electrically controlled switches. Unlike transistors, their switch contacts are electrically isolated from the control input. On the other hand, the power dissipation in a ...

Relays and contactors use a variety of technologies to switch signals and power connections. Many devices called relays use similar techniques and topologies, but the terminology can be confusing.

Standex Electronics has announced two series of high-voltage power reed relays, one surface-mount and one axially leaded. MHV series of miniature high voltage reed relays are surface mount and measure ...

DARPA selected RTX Corporation, Draper, and BEAM Co to design prototype lop wireless optical power relays. The Persistent Optical Wireless Energy Relay (POWER) program, aimed at revolutionizing energy ...

Omron has a series of compact PCB mount power relays designed to handle ‘TV-8’ in-rush surges, and they are available with standard coils or two forms of bi-stable coils. Called the G5Q-HR range, they ...

Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and computer-based controllers are great for handling logic and data-collection tasks for industrial controls. But when it comes to driving motors, heaters, ...

There are several factors in taking a particular design approach, and they are not always independent. Some of the considerations when designing drivers for inductive loads are size, cost, switching ...
