with EN50130-4

The CPC1218 is a miniature voltage-controlled

1-Form-A Solid State Relay in a 4-pin Single In-line

Package (SIP) that employs optically coupled

MOSFET technology to provide 2500V

to output isolation. The super efficient MOSFET

switches and photovoltaic die use Clare’s patented

controlled by the input's highly efficient GaAlAs infrared

LED and a built-in series resistor to provide input

voltage-controlled operation.

The CPC1218 features a pin-out that matches many

popular reed relays and is thus a "drop-in" solid state

replacement. Because the input is solid state there is

no need for snubbers or "catch" diodes to suppress the

inductive fly back transient voltage normally associated

with EMR coils.
