Relay has optically-coupled MOSFET

IXYS Integrated Circuits Division, now part of Little fuse, is in production  of the  CPC1984Y, a 600V, Normally Open Power SIP Relay, rated for up to 1A DC/1Arms continuous load current. The device uses optically coupled MOSFET technology to provide 4000Vrms of input-to-output isolation. The relay offers the best combination of load voltage and load current available ...
