Features low ON-state resistance and high ON-state current ratings for easier use
Toshiba introduced two new high current photorelays, fabricated using the latest U-MOS IX semiconductor process. The new “TLP3553A” and “TLP3555A” devices has OFF-state output terminal voltage ratings of 30V and 60V, and ON-state continuous current ratings of 4A and 3A—higher than previous generation products. The TLP3553A has a low ON-state-resistance of just 50mΩ (max) which is less than a typical mechanical relay (about 100mΩ), ensuring that operating losses are kept to a minimum.
With high ON-state current ratings, the new products can replace 1-Form-A mechanical relays that are commonly used in industrial applications. Replacing mechanical relays with photorelays can improve system reliability and reduces the space required for relays and relay drivers. The photorelays are rated for operation at temperature between -40 ºC and 110ºC, making it easy to achieve a thermal margin in designs.
The photorelays are intended be used in a variety of applications such as industrial equipment (PLC, I/O interface, etc.); heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC); building automation systems, security equipment, and replacement of mechanical relays in legacy systems.
