Pickering Introduces Industry's First Miniature SIP Reed Relay with 5kV Stand-off Capability
Pickering Electronics , the reed relay company which has pioneered miniaturization and high performance for over 50 years, has added a 5kV stand-off, up to 1.5kV switching version to its single-in-line Series 104 reed relay family.
- Pickering Electronics , the reed relay company which has pioneered miniaturization and high performance for over 50 years, has added a 5kV stand-off, up to 1.5kV switching version to its single-in-line Series 104 reed relay family.
- Previously, to achieve a 5kV stand-off rating, a larger, non-SIP (Single-in-Line-Package) relay was required.
- Commented Kevin Mallett, Technical Specialist at Pickering Electronics: “This is the first miniature SIP reed relay with a standoff of up to 5kV and up to 1.5kV switching, and so is particularly advantageous where a compact design is essential, as the devices can stack at just 6.35mm.
- The 104 5kV version fills the gap in Pickering’s expanding high voltage relay range, which spans between 1kV – 15kV.
