M221

400V, 140mA, 20 ohms

Description

The M221 is a bi-directional, single-pole, single-throw, normally open multipurpose solid-state relay in a miniature 4-pin small outline package. It is designed to replace electromechanical relays in general purpose switching applications. The relay consists of an integrated circuit that drives two rugged source-to-source enhancement type DMOS transistors - optically coupled to a light emitting diode. The output MOS transistors M221 are protected with free-wheeling diodes that can handle up to 5A of inrush current, making the relay ideal for switching lamps and highly inductive loads.
