Single-coil latching relays, whose applications include signal routing, audio, and automotive systems, can pose a design challenge because coil current must flow in both directions through a single ...

Sometimes, the most unexpected detours lead to the most interesting discoveries. After a brief break, I found myself revisiting latching relays—not just as components, but as puzzles waiting to be ...

The 385 series of mechanically-latched, electrically-reset relays are used where the relay contacts need to remain in the last set position with the power off. The terminals have a single-piece ...

Most of Europe’s 240 million electricity meters are expected to be replaced by smart meters by 2020. It is currently estimated that approximately 78 million of these meters will need to use AC ...

Over the years, control relays of various types have been used by the hundreds — even thousands — to control nearly every function in commercial and industrial processes. Today, many of those ...

Relays are electromechanical devices that use a magnetic solenoid to actual a switch. When current is passed through the solenoid coil, it produces a magnetic field. The magnetic field is strengthened ...
