Clare Introduces New Family of 4-Pin Solid State Relays for Reed Relay Replacement.BEVERLY, Mass. -- Clare, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary Wholly Owned Subsidiary A subsidiary whose parent company owns 100% of its common stock. Notes: In other words, the parent company owns the company outright and there are no minority owners. of IXYS Corporation (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :IXYS), today announced the immediate availability of their new 4-pin, Standard In-Line Package (SIP) 1-Form-A (Single Pole, Normally Open In electronics, a normally open switch is one that normally prevents current flow and which allows current to flow when it is perturbed. Such a switch requires a constant intervention in order to keep it closed. ) and 1-Form-B (Single Pole, Normally Closed In electronics, a normally closed switch is one that normally allows current to flow and which prevents current flow when it is perturbed.
This 60-Volt family of solid state relays is voltage controlled (5-12V input) and provides higher reliability than electromechanical The use of electricity to run moving parts. Disk drives, printers and motors are examples. Electromechanical systems must be designed for the eventual deterioration of moving components that wear over time. The first TVs were electromechanical systems (see video/TV history). and reed relays because there are no moving parts to break down. Additionally, these SSRs do not require snubber circuits and no magnetic contact testing is required as with reed relays. The Single Pole, Normally Open CPC (1) (Central Processing Complex) An IBM mainframe that has two or more central processors (CPs) that share memory. It is the collection of processors, memory and I/O subsystems manufactured with a single serial number, typically all contained in one cabinet. 1218Y features 600mA of current handling and very low on-resistance of 0.8 Ohm. The Single Pole, Normally Open CPC1217Y features 200mA of current handling and 16 Ohm of on-resistance, and the Single Pole, Normally Closed CPC1219Y features 150mA of current handling and 16 Ohms of on-resistance. Each device is manufactured using Clare's patented OptoMOS architecture and provides a 2500Vrms input-to-output isolation barrier. Target markets and applications for these devices include the security market, Passive Infrared Detectors, industrial controls, solenoid solenoid (sō`lənoid'), device made of a long wire that has been wound many times into a tightly packed coil; it has the shape of a long cylinder. switches and drivers, sensor circuitry and instrumentation. Overall, the pin-for-pin compatibility with reed relays, increased reliability, elimination of potential shielding components and increased time to market, make these devices ideal for various applications as replacement ICs. The CPC1217/18/19 4-pin Relays for Reed Relay Replacement are currently available in production quantities.
