Transistorised Relay

Transistorised Relay

Transistorised Relay

(OP)
Can anyone tell me if there is something more up-to-date to replace transistorised relays, or if not, a company that manufactures them?

RE: Transistorised Relay

Taking a step back, what are you trying to switch with the relay? Define the coil voltage and load voltage & current. I guess it's a DC coil since it is a transistor relay you are talking about. The more information you put in, the more you will get out...

RE: Transistorised Relay

I've got no clue as to what a transistorized relay is...

1970s - either a relay with an internal transistor to help drive the coil, or a transistor switch dressed-up to make it 'look like' a relay (cute box, some resistors).

RE: Transistorised Relay

My understanding was that it was a standard relay with an integrated transistor to reduce the drive requirement of the coil. Not so common these days!
