This chapter covers representative general-purpose relays used in the control circuits of most industrial, commercial, and consumer products. Relay names and terminology are in accordance with ...

The cost of component failures continues to increase as electronic products become more complex. Most component replacement costs are associated with marginal devices that become intermittent or fail ...

Although many electromechanical relays have been replaced by their solid-state cousins, they still have their place in electronic systems and they are still being manufactured. The early telephone ...

Relays and contactors use a variety of technologies to switch signals and power connections. Many devices called relays use similar techniques and topologies, but the terminology can be confusing.

Modern relay technology has been around since the 1960s, and its main function is to provide automation with electrical isolation for many applications. All relays have two separate circuitries: input ...

Carlo Gavazzi in launching two new families of economically priced electromechanical plug-in relays and accessories. The RCI relays offer two styles, 8 or 11 pin terminals for circular bases or the ...

The new coaxial relay switches from Fairview Microwave are available in multiple varieties from SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) to SP12T (Single Pole 12 Throw) and are designed with either SMA, Type-N ...

Electronic relays have evolved a lot since their introduction in the early '30s, but their basic purpose hasn't changed. Transistors and integrated circuits have replaced vacuum tubes and the term ...
