Solid-state relays (SSRs) control load currents through solid-state switches such as triacs, SCRs, or power transistors. These elements are controlled by input signals coupled to the switching devices ...

If you've ever wondered how electronic devices manage to control circuits with precision and safety, you're thinking about the magic of relays. Relays act as the unsung heroes in many of our devices, ...

Many electronic designs can take advantage of the improved performance of solid-state relays (SSRs) relative to that of electromechanical relays (EMRs) that perform the same circuit function. OptoMOS® ...

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. has announced the launch of two new industrial-grade solid-state relays, the VO1401AEFTR and VOR1003M4T, designed in a surface-mount SOP-4 package. These relays feature ...

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 ...

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, ...
