Power MOSFET Photovoltaic Relay
Single Pole, Normally Open,
0-400V, 140mA AC/DC
General Description
The PVT412 Series Photovoltaic Relay is a single-pole,
normally open solid-state relay that can replace elec-
tromechanical relays in many applications. It utilizes
International Rectifier’s proprietary 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.
These SSRs are specifically designed for worldwide
telecom applications. PVT412L employs an active
current-limiting circuitry enabling it to pass FCC Part
68 and other regulatory agency current surge re-
quirements when overvoltage protection is provided.
PVT412 does not employ the current-limiting circuitry
and offers lower on-state resistance.
Series PVT412 Relays are packaged in a 6-lead
molded DIP package with either thru-hole or surface
mount (‘gull-wing’) terminals. It is available in standard
plastic shipping tubes or on tape-and-reel.Please refer
to part identification information opposite.
