The Latching Mini Relay FeatherWing is a powerful tool for controlling small appliances, allowing you to easily switch on and off devices such as lamps, fans, and solenoids that run on up to 250VAC or DC power using any Feather board. This FeatherWing provides a reliable and efficient way to add relay control to your Feather projects. Latching Relay Design: Unlike the Non-Latching relay, the Latching Mini Relay uses two control pins: SET and UNSET. Instead of keeping the SET pin high, you only need to pulse each pin high for 10ms to toggle the relay between open and closed states. This design saves power, as it doesn't require constant current to keep the relay latched. The relay will stay in its last setting even if power is lost, making it ideal for energy-efficient applications. Switching Capabilities: The relay can switch up to 2A of resistive current at 30VDC or ~40VAC. At higher voltages, it can switch 0.6A at 110VDC, 0.5A at 120VAC, and 0.3A at 250VAC. It's designed for lighter loads, up to 60W; for more demanding devices, such as 1200W appliances, consider our Power FeatherWing, which can handle up to 10A. Simple Integration: The FeatherWing is easy to use, simply attach it to your Feather board using Feather Stacking Headers or Feather Female Headers. The FeatherWing comes with a fully assembled PCB, a 3-pin terminal block for wiring up your relay-controlled devices, and a header to attach it to your Feather board. Some light soldering is required. Safety Note: If you plan to use this relay with voltages greater than 24V, exercise caution. High voltages should only be handled by engineers familiar with safe usage practices and guidelines. Technical Details: Product Dimensions: 50.8mm x 22.9mm x 11.4mm / 2.0" x 0.9" x 0.4" Weight: 6.4g / 0.2oz Included: Fully assembled PCB, terminal block, and header. Some light soldering required for final assembly. Compatibility: Works with all Feather boards and includes resources like schematics, datasheets, EagleCAD PCB files, and Fritzing objects for easy integration. The Latching Mini Relay FeatherWing is perfect for applications where you need efficient, low-power relay control over small appliances. Add this FeatherWing to your Feather board to bring powerful control to your projects!
