General Description
The Photovoltaic DC Relay (PVD) is a single-pole, normally open solid state replacement for electro-mechanical relays used for general purpose switching of
analog signals. It utilizes as an output switch a unique
bidirectional (AC or DC) MOSFET power IC termed a
BOSFET. The BOSFET is controlled by a photovoltaic
generator of novel construction, which is energized by
radiation from a dielectrically isolated light emitting diode (LED).
The PVD overcomes the limitations of both conventional and reed electromechanical relays by offering
the solid state advantages of long life, high operating
speed, low pick-up power, bounce-free operation, low
thermal voltages and miniaturization. These advantages allow product improvement and design innovations in many applications such as process control,
multiplexing, telecommunications, automatic test
equipment and data acquisition.
The PVD can switch analog signals from thermocouple
level to 100 volts peak DC. Signal frequencies into the
RF range are easily controlled and switching rates up
to 2kHz are achievable. The extremely small thermally
generated offset voltages allow increased measurement accuracies.
Unique silicon technology developed by International
Rectifier forms the hear t of the PVD. The monolithic
BOSFET contains a bidirectional N-channel power
MOSFET output structure. In addition, this power IC
chip has input circuitry for fast turn-off and gate protection functions. This section of the BOSFET chip utilizes
both bipolar and MOS technology to for m NPN transistors, P-channel MOSFETs, resistors, diodes and capacitors.
The photovoltaic generator similarly utilizes a unique
International Rectifier alloyed multijunction structure.
The excellent current conversion efficiency of this technique results in the ver y fast response of the PVD microelectronic power IC relay.
This advanced semiconductor technology has created
a radically new control device. Designers can now develop switching systems to new standards of electrical
perfor mance and mechanical compactness.
