Series PVG613PbF

Microelectronic Power IC

Single Pole, Normally Open, 0-60V, 1.0A AC/ 2.0 A DC

General Description

The PVG613 Series Photovoltaic Relay is a single-

pole, normally open solid-state relay that can replace

electromechanical relays in many applications. It util-

izes International Rectifier’s proprietary HEXFET power

MOSFET as the output switch, driven by an integrated

circuit photovoltaic generator of novel construction. The

output switch is controlled by radiation from a GaAlAs

light emitting diode (LED) which is optically isolated

from the photovoltaic generator.

These units exceed the performance capabilities of

electromechanical relays in operating life, sensitivity,

stable on-resistance, low off-state leakage, miniatur-

ization, insensitivity to magnetic fields and ruggedess.

The compact PVG613 is particularly suited for isolated

switching of high currents from 12 to 48 Volt AC or DC

power sources.

Series PVG613 Relays are packaged in a 6-pin,

molded DIP package with either thru-hole or surface

mount (gull-wing) terminals. It is available in standard

plastic shipping tubes or on tape-and-reel. Please refer

to Part Identification information opposite.
