Omron Electronics has introduced the G3VM-61YR, the latest addition to its range of MOSFET relays. This newly launched MOSFET relay offers low output capacitance and low ON resistance and is available in a compact WSON package. They are ideal for high-frequency signal switching.
The state-of-the-art G3VM MOSFET relays are offered in a non-leaded, high-current WSON package size. These MOSFET relays are designed to improve radiation performance and balance high current capability with a small size, making them ideal for ATE (Automated Test Equipment), medical, security, industrial, telecommunications, and power generation, etc. These MOSFET relays as a new member in the family of solid-state relays (SSRs) offer numerous advantages over the traditional electromagnetic relays (EMRs), such as small size, light, low driving current, long operating life, high-speed switching, low EMI, and high reliability, etc. As power electronic applications demand high density, high speed and high efficiency, these MOSFET relays have found more new applications in IoT (Internet of Things), 5G networking equipment, aerospace and energy harvesting, etc.
Omron’s MOSFET relays are circuits rather than conventional relays. They lead the industry in optical semiconductor technology, utilizing an input LED, Photodiode Dome Array (PDA) as the photocoupler, and MOSFET chip in the load switching current. As shown in the diagram of the Operational Principle below, when the input is present, a current flows through the LED to turn it on. As the LED is illuminated, the PDA converts its light into voltage which is used to synthesize the driving signal by the control circuit for the MOSFET block, which consists of double MOSFETs allowing both AC and DC current to pass in either direction accordingly.
