Are SMD relays better than ordinary relays? Where can I get them
As we have already explored in articles on our website where we deal with SSR solid state relays, both solid state relays and common relays have the same function, but their characteristics are different. So, there are applications where they are interchangeable, but there are applications where they are not. One of the problems that must be considered is the ability to resist transients that common (mechanical) relays have, which is less in SSR. Another is that the SSR contact is a transistor and it conducts the current in one direction. Solid state relays can be found in a multitude of types at WWW.mouser.com.
