The PLA140 is a single-pole normally open
Load Current 250 mA / mA
(1-Form-A) Solid State Relay that uses optically
rms DC
On-Resistance (max) 8
coupled MOSFET technology to provide 3750V of
rms
input-to-output isolation.
Features
MOSFET output switches, which use IXYS
Low On-Resistance, High Current Handling
Integrated Circuits Division's patented OptoMOS
Low Drive Power Requirements (TTL/CMOS
architecture, are controlled by a highly efficient
Compatible)
GaAIAs infrared LED.
3750V Input/Output Isolation
rms
High Reliability
The PLA140s combination of low on-resistance and
VDE Compatible
high load current handling makes it suitable for a
FCC Compatible
variety of industrial applications.
Arc-Free With No Snubbing Circuits
No EMI/RFI Generation
Because Solid State Relays like the PLA140 have no
Machine Insertable, Wave Solderable
moving parts, they offer faster, bounce-free switching
Small 6-Pin Package
in a more compact surface mount or though hole
Surface Mount Tape & Reel Version Available
package than traditional electromechanical relays.
