General Description

The PVG613 Series Photovoltaic Relay is a single-

pole, normally open solid-state relay that can replace

electromechanical relays in many applications. It

utilizes International Rectifier’s proprietary HEXFET

power MOSFET as the output switch, driven by an

integrated circuit photovoltaic generator of novel

construction. The output switch is controlled by

radiation from a GaAlAs light emitting diode (LED)

which is optically isolated from the photovoltaic

generator.

These units exceed the performance capabilities of

electromechanical relays in operating life, sensitivity,

stable on-resistance, low off-state leakage,

miniaturization, insensitivity to magnetic fields and

ruggedess. The compact PVG613 is particularly

suited for isolated switching of high currents from 12

to 48 Volt AC or DC power sources.

Series PVG613 Relays are packaged in a 6-pin,

molded DIP package with either thru-hole or surface

mount (gull-wing) terminals. It is available in standard

plastic shipping tubes or on tape-and-reel. Please

refer to Part Identification information opposite.
