DC60MP datasheet

Description

The DC60MP is a DC-controlled solid-state relay (SSR) capable of switching up to 60VDC at 3A, designed in a compact epoxy-encapsulated package for PCB mounting. It features high optical isolation, robust surge handling, and integrated heat-spreader technology for improved thermal performance and long-term reliability. This relay is widely used in industrial control, automation systems, and high-density PCB relay applications.

Features

  • Switching capability up to 60VDC and 3A load current
  • 4,000V optical isolation between input and output
  • Rugged epoxy encapsulated construction
  • High surge tolerance with pre- and post-test validation
  • Integrated heat-spreader for efficient thermal dissipation
  • Designed for high-density PCB mounting

Absolute Maximum Ratings (Tc = 25 °C)

Parameter Symbol Value Unit
Load Voltage VLOAD 60 VDC
Load Current ILOAD 3 A
Isolation Voltage VISO 4000 Vrms
Operating Temperature Top -40 to 85 °C
Storage Temperature Tstg -40 to 100 °C

Design Notes

  • Ensure adequate PCB copper area for heat dissipation despite built-in heat spreader
  • Use proper input current limiting resistor for LED drive inside SSR
  • Consider leakage current in off-state for sensitive loads
  • Snubber circuits may be required for inductive loads
