This 5V SPST DIL reed relay is small and lightweight, making it ideal for various applications. Key features include a pickup voltage of 3.5V DC, an allowable voltage of 160%, and a low power consumption of 0.1W. Specifications: It's a DC - type reed relay with a nominal voltage of 5V, a coil resistance of 500Ω, a coil current of 20mA, a dropout voltage of 0.5V, a DC max current of 1A, and it's designed for PCB mounting.
Using this 5V SPST DIL reed relay is quite straightforward. First, make sure your power source provides DC voltage. Connect the relay to your PCB following the correct pin - out. Keep in mind that the pickup voltage is 3.5V DC, so your input voltage should reach this level for the relay to activate. As for the allowable voltage, don't exceed 160% to prevent damage. When it comes to power consumption, with just 0.1W, it's energy - efficient. Regarding maintenance, keep the relay in a dry and clean environment. Avoid exposing it to excessive heat or moisture. If you notice any abnormal behavior, check the connections and the input voltage. This relay is designed to last, but proper care will ensure its long - term performance.
