International Rectifier Announces the PVT322 series Telecom Microelectronic Relay
With lower contact resistance and higher load current, this new telecom relay proves to be a leader in the industry, says Andy
Serkuczewski, Director of Business Management and Product Marketing for Microelectronic Relays at International Rectifier.
EL SEGUNDO, CA. May 1997 - International Rectifier (IR) has added a new device to their line of specialized telecom microelectronic
relays (MERs) -- the PVT322, a dual-pole device that does not derate load current when both channels are conducting (an industry first).
This new PVT322 Series dual-pole telecom microelectronic relay represents a further extension of IR’s popular and successful Gen
2 line of photovoltaic relays.
The PVT322 Series offers a maximum load voltage of ±250 Volts (DC or AC peak) and a maximum load current of 170 mA per
channel at an RDD(on) of 10 W maximum. The PVT322 Series requires only 2mA of input LED current to actuate, which makes it TTL
and
CMOS compatible. A high input-to-output optical isolation of 4,000 VRMS also allows the PVT322 Series to meet all worldwide
electrical safety standards and regulations.
Typical applications for use of the PVT322 Series include on/off hookswitches, ringer pulse generation and injection, and
general purpose switching. Despite the fact that these relays have been designed primarily for peripheral telecom devices, they
can also be used in other applications such as security equipment, process automation, and industrial controls.
The PVT322 Series is packaged in the industry-standard 8-pin DIP plastic molded package and is available with either
thru-hole or gull-wing surface-mount lead termination styles.
Samples and small order quantities available from stock. Lead time for production volumes is 8 to 10 weeks.
