FEATURES
1. Compact 8-pin DIP size
The device comes in a compact (W) 6.4 ×
(L) 9.78 ×(H) 3.9 mm (W) .252×(L)
.385×(H) .154 inch, 8-pin DIP size
(through hole terminal type).
2. Applicable for 2 Form A use as well
as two independent 1 Form A use
3. Controls low-level analog signals
PhotoMOS relays feature extremely low
closed-circuit offset voltage to enable
control of low-level analog signals without
distortion.
4. High sensitivity, high speed
response
Can control a maximum 0.13 A load
current with a 5 mA input current. Fast
operation speed of 310 s (typical).
(AQW214)
5. Low-level off state leakage current
The SSR has an off state leakage current
of several milliamperes whereas the
PhotoMOS relays has typ. 100 pA even
with the rated load voltage of 400 V
(AQW214).
6. Low-level thermal electromotive
force (Approx. 1
V)
7. Eliminates the need for a counter
electromotive force protection diode
in the drive circuits on the input side
8. Stable ON resistance.
9. Eliminates the need for a power
supply to drive the power MOSFET
