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, ...

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.

Here’s a MEMS relay with an integrated FET that can handle higher power levels, breaking away from the “low power” moniker associated with MEMS parts. Paul Rako takes a closer look at what makes this ...

This chapter covers representative general-purpose relays used in the control circuits of most industrial, commercial, and consumer products. Relay names and terminology are in accordance with ...

The G9KJ relay, now in production, is built for pre‑charge applications and supports DC‑link voltages of up to 1500V. The PCB ...

Omron has designed a relay that can interrupt 200A at 500V, aiming to displace contactors from dc electric vehicle chargers, batteries and solar inverters. “A proprietary gas-less design cools arcs ...

Electrical distribution systems are characterized by dynamic operating conditions and complex network topologies, which pose significant challenges for the effective deployment of protection schemes.

Global revenue in the aircraft relay and contactor market has declined by more than 20 percent as a result of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. The market decline is expected to stabilize in 2021, ...
