Panasonic Industrial Devices PhotoMOS®
Panasonic PhotoMOS® are MOSFET-enabled solid-state relays that feature low off-state leakage current and stable on-resistance over the component lifetime. These relays offer low CxR values, high optical isolation between input and output, and DC, as well as AC/DC load ratings. Features include high switching speed, long operational life, and high vibration and shock resistance with no arcing, bounce, or switching noise. Panasonic PhotoMOS products are available in various 4-, 6-, 8-, and 16-pin packages. Applications include test and measurement, instrumentation, security, medical, data communications, automotive, railway and traffic signals, and industrial machines.
