World’s smallest two pole reed relay
Pickering in the UK is launching the industry’s smallest two pole DPST (double-pole, single-throw) reed relay for test and measurement systems.
The Series 125 reed relays stack on a 5mm x 5mm pitch, achieving the highest packing density for a two-pole relay. The Form A relays support up to 1 A and 20 W switching power and are available with 3V, 5V, or 12V coil options, including an optional diode. They also include full mu-metal magnetic screening, significantly reducing magnetic interaction between relays from 40% to just 1%.
“As Pickering continuously improves its reed relay offering for test & measurement (T&M) instrumentation and ATE (automated test equipment), we expect to see interest at electronica from diverse sectors and applications, including mixed-signal semiconductor test, high-end cable and backplane testers, signal switching in medical electronics and EV charging, solar cell monitoring, and high voltage instrumentation,” commented Rob King, Reed Relays Product Manager at Pickering Electronics.
The company’s 4mm2 reed relay range also offer up to 1 Amp switching, while stacking on a 4mm x 4mm pitch, allowing the highest packing density currently available in the industry. These ultra-high-density 4mm2 reed relays are ideal for very high density applications, such as ATE switching matrices or multiplexers.
“Furthermore, our new Series 125 will deliver the smallest two pole (DPST) reed relays on the market – making it ideal for engineers who need to maximise their PCB real estate,” said King.
The Series 125 two pole reed relay will be shown at the electronica exhibition next week.
