Description

The PLA140 is a single-pole normally open (1-Form-A) Solid State Relay that uses optically coupled MOSFET technology to provide 3750Vrms of input-to-output isolation.

MOSFET output switches, which use IXYS Integrated Circuits Divisions patented OptoMOS architecture, are controlled by a highly efficient GaAIAs infrared LED.

The PLA140’s combination of low on-resistance and high load current handling makes it suitable for a variety of industrial applications.

Because Solid State Relays like the PLA140 have no moving parts, they offer faster, bounce-free switching in a more compact surface mount or though hole package than traditional electromechanical relays.
