The Pickering Series 100 is a range of single-in-line reed relays designed for direct drive from CMOS or NMOS logic, featuring low thermal EMF of about 1 microvolt or less and an internal mu-metal magnetic screen to prevent magnetic interference. The 1 Form C (change-over) switch variant has a 5 V coil with a resistance of 3300 Ω, a contact resistance of 0.20 Ω, an insulation resistance exceeding 10^12 Ω, and a switch rating of 3 watts at 200 V. The relay is encapsulated in a plastic package with a typical capacitance of 3.5 pF across the closed switch and 0.1 pF across the open switch. The device supports dry contact configurations and is suitable for low-level switching applications such as data acquisition.
The Pickering Series 100 is a complete range of Single-in- Line (SIL) reed relays primarily intended for direct drive from 4000B CMOS or NMOS logic or similar low current sources. The mercury wetted relays in the range may be driven directly from TTL logic.
They are also useful for applications where conservation of current is important, for example, battery powered equipment.
The extremely low level of thermal EMF, about 1 microvolt or less, of the dry versions make them ideally suited to applications such as data acquisition or thermocouple switching.
An internal mu-metal magnetic screen is fi tted to avoid the effects of magnetic interaction between relays.
