5504-12-1

Reed relays are a type of switch made from a pair of ferromagnetic thin metal reeds. The reeds are sealed in a glass envelope which is hermetically sealed and filled with an inert gas such as argon or other rare gases. They are actuated by an electric current flowing through one of the reeds, which causes it to magnetize and attract the other reed, thus closing the switch. The important features of reed relays are their low power consumption, high switching speed, low on resistance, and high isolation voltage.

The 5504-12-1 Reed Relay is an ultra-small size SMD type reed relay, which can switch AC and DC loads up to 1 amp. It is hermetically sealed and filled with an inert gas to provide isolation and high-speed switching capability. The 5504-12-1 has an operating voltage of 12V and a switching power of 1 Watt. It features an on resistance of 0.15 ohms and an isolation voltage of up to 100V DC. The relay operates with a current draw of less than 1mA and can switch up to 1A AC or 100V DC.

The 5504-12-1 is used in a variety of applications, such as power supplies, digital logic circuits, instrumentation, medical equipment, and industrial automation. Its small size and light weight make it ideal for use in portable and handheld devices. It is also capable of switching high-speed signals, so it can be used in telecommunications and data networking applications. Its low power consumption and long life make it suitable for power-sensitive applications.

The working principle of the 5504-12-1 is based on the operation of magnetic reeds. When current passes through one of the reeds, it becomes magnetized and attracts the other reed, closing the switch. When the current is removed, the reeds separate and the switch is opened. Using this principle, the 5504-12-1 can switch AC or DC loads up to 100V DC and 1A AC. The switching speed is extremely fast, making it suitable for high-speed switching applications.

The 5504-12-1 Reed Relay is the perfect choice for applications that require high speed, high isolation, low on resistance, and low power consumption. Its many features, such as its ultra-small size, light weight, and long life, make it an excellent choice for many different types of applications. From power supplies and instrumentation to telecommunications and industrial automation, the 5504-12-1 provides an efficient and reliable switch solution.
