This white paper describes Coto's reliability testing of its Coto Classic reed relay and molded reed switches. For many switching applications reed relays remain the best solution, particularly when ...

Switches are seemingly simple and ubiquitous devices, but selecting one—whether a solid-state device, electromechanical relay, or reed relay—can present challenges to an engineer whose focus is on ...

A presentation on reed switch contact styles and the results of parametric testing on each. The DYAD reed switch was originally designed with ‘bifurcated’contact tip material for use in reed relay ...

Reed relays contain a reed switch, a coil for creating a magnetic field, an optional diode for handling back EMF from the coil, and an encapsulating package with connection terminals. In many ways, a ...

A tiny new MEMS-based reed switch may enable engineers to reduce the size of the electronic circuitry in devices ranging from ingestible endoscopes and hearing aids to insulin delivery systems and ...
