Pickering is pleased to announce that a new 10W-rated reed relay has been added to the 4mm2 product family which occupy a PCB footprint of only 4mm x 4mm, facilitating the highest packing density currently available. Series 122 relays measure 12.5mm in height and are rated with a switching current of 0.5A at 10W.
The Series 120 was launched with a switching rating of up to 1A at 20W and a height of 15.5mm. Last year, the Series 124 reduced this profile to 9.5mm but with a slightly lower rating of 0.5A at 5W. This new Series 122 device, therefore, fills the gap, providing you with the flexibility you need to design in a product that exactly matches your requirements.
Fast operate and release times, typically 150µs or less, make Series 122 relays ideal for high-speed test systems such as A.T.E. switching matrices or multiplexers. The 1 Form A (SPST) Normally Open (NO) devices feature highest-quality, instrumentation-grade sputtered-ruthenium switches and internal mu-metal magnetic screening to avoid the risk of magnetic interaction issues in densely-packed applications.
These are the same reed switches as used in the long-established Pickering Series 112, 113 and 116 but are orientated vertically within the package, allowing this high density.
