The 106-1-A-5/2 is a Single-In-Line reed relay from Pickering Electronics, designed for applications requiring reliable switching in a compact form factor. It features a 1 Form A (energize to make) configuration with a power rating of 20 Watts and a maximum switching current of 1 Amp at 200 Volts. The relay is equipped with a coil voltage of 5 Volts and a coil resistance of 500 ohms, making it compatible with TTL logic. This relay incorporates an internal mu-metal magnetic screen, which reduces magnetic interaction to approximately 5%, allowing for side-by-side stacking on a 0.2-inch pitch without significant performance degradation. The insulation resistance exceeds 10^12 ohms, ensuring high reliability in sensitive applications. The operating temperature range is -20 to +85 ¬8C, extendable to +125 ¬8C with appropriate adjustments to the coil drive voltage. The 106-1-A-5/2 is suitable for Automatic Test Equipment and other applications where low contact resistance and high insulation resistance are critical. Its life expectancy is approximately 1 x 10^9 operations under low load conditions, making it a durable choice for engineers seeking dependable relay solutions.
The Series 106 is a range of Single-In-Line reed relays intended for stacking on 0.2 inches pitch. Their small size, superb contact resistance stability and ultra high insulation resistance, make these relays an ideal choice for Automatic Test Equipment. They have an internal mu-metal screen to eliminate problems that would otherwise be experienced due to magnetic interaction. While the screening is not quite as efficient as the complete mu-metal can of the Series 107, 108 or 109, it is more than adequate for most applications (see explanation below).
If even greater packing density is required, smaller devices are available in other Pickering SIL ranges..
