DESCRIPTION
The LH1525 relay is an SPST normally open switche (1 Form A
and Dual 1 Form A respectively) in small-outline packages (SOP).
They require a minimal amount of LED drive current to operate,
making them ideal for battery powered and power consumption
sensitive applications.
The relays are constructed using a GaAlAs LED for actuation
control and an integrated monolithic die for the switch output.
The die, fabricated in a high-voltage dielectrically isolated
BCDMOS technology, is comprised of a photodiode array, switch-
control circuitry, and MOSFET switches. In addition, the relays
employ current-limiting circuitry enabling it to pass FCC 68.302
and other regulatory surge requirements when overvoltage
protection is provided.
The LH1525 (1 Form A) is packaged in an 8-pin, plastic SOP
(LH1525ACD). Available in sticks or on tape and reel.
