Fast operate and release times, typically 150μs or less, make Series 122 relays ideal for high speed test systems such as ATE switching matrices or multiplexers.
The 1 Form A (SPST) Normally Open (NO) Energise-to-make devices feature highest-quality, instrumentation-grade sputtered-ruthenium switches and plastic packages with internal mu-metal magnetic screening to avoid the risk of magnetic interaction issues in densely-packed applications.
Devices have an insulation resistance of greater than 1012Ω and are 100%-tested for dynamic contact resistance to guarantee performance.
Comments Graham Dale, technical director at Pickering Electronics: “The Series 120 – our first 4mm2TM product – was launched with a switching rating of up to 1A at 20W and a height of 15.5mm. Last year, the Series 124 reduced this profile to 9.5mm but with a slightly lower rating of 0.5A at 5W. This new Series 122 device, therefore, fills the gap, providing customers with the flexibility they need to design in a product that exactly matches their requirements.”
For ease of servicing/replacement, relays maybe socketed using SMD or through-hole sockets. However, care must be taken to mitigate the risk of affecting contact resistance integrity.
