WIXOM -- The Wixom manufacturing electronics manufacturer Acromag has released new BusWorks XT Series multi-channel optocouplers and interposing relay modules that connect discrete field devices to ...

Relays usually are driven using optocouplers, which offer isolation between analog and digital grounds to ensure that switching currents in the relay coils do not affect the noise margin of the ...

Murrelektronik optocouplers, slim interface relays and multi-mode relay timers are now available from AutomationDirect. Murrelektronik optocouplers (from $16.50) are used to combine different signal ...

Off-the-shelf Solid State Relays (SSR) are reliable and compact, but it’s hard to find one that can conduct more than a few hundred milliamps of current. If you need an isolated SSR to switch line ...

These modules work with the company's BusWorks XT and other Ethernet discrete I/O modules. The XTA-MRNO-6 is an interposing relay module with six digital inputs and six mechanical relay outputs ...

What is a relay? What is zero voltage switching? How to create a zero-crossing relay driver with a simple external circuit. A relay is a device that allows for a smaller electronic switch to control a ...

Electromechanical components such as relays and switches often must undergo endurance tests that verify their reliability and safety. Regulatory standards typically have compliance criteria that ...

Raspberry Pi users may be interested in a new 8 channel relay board named the PiRelay 8, specifically created for the Raspberry Pi range of mini PC systems. The relay board allows you to connect up to ...
