13.1.1.2 Conduction
Conduction is the transfer of heat from one solid to the
next adjacent solid. The amount and thermal gradient of
heat transfer are dependent on the surface finishes
flatness and roughnessand the interfacial pressure
generated by the attachment system. This mechanically
generated force is accomplished by screws, springs,
snap assemblies, etc. The thermal effectiveness of a
conductive interface is measured by the resultant
temperature gradient in C. This may be calculated from
the interface thermal resistance at the mounted pressure
times the watts of energy moving across the joint
divided by the cross-sectional area. These temperature
gradients are most significant for high wattage components in small packagesdivisors less than 1.0 are, in
actual effect, multipliers. Good thermal solutions have
a ttac hme nt sy ste ms t hat ge nerat e pressu re s of
2550 psi.
Table 13-1 compares the thermal performance of
most of the common interface material groups with a
dry jointthis makes amply clear why it is never
acceptable to specify or default through design inaction
to a dry joint.

Impedance Discontinuity. A d e v i a t i o n f r o m t h e
nominal RF impedance of 50 : at a point inside a reed
relay. Impedance discontinuities cause signal absorption
and reflectance problems resulting in higher signal
losses. They are minimized by designing the relay to
have ideal transmission line characteristics.

where,
Vt is the transmitted voltage,
Vi is the incident voltage.
Insertion loss, isolation and return loss are often
expressed with the sign reversed; for example, the
frequency at which 50% power loss occurs may be
quoted as the 3 dB point. Since relays are passive and
always produce net losses, this does not normally cause
confusion.
Inrush Current. Generally, the current waveform
immediately after a load is connected to a source. Inrush
current can form a surge flowing through a relay that is
switching a low-impedance source load that is typically
a highly reactive circuit or one with a nonlinear load
characteristic such as a tungsten lamp load. Such
abusive load surges are sometimes encountered when
relays are inadvertently connected to test loads
containing undischarged capacitors or to long transmission lines with appreciable amounts of stored capacitive energy. Excessive inrush currents can cause switch
contact welding or premature contact failure.
Insulation Resistance. The dc resistance between two
specified test points.
Isolation. The ratio of the power delivered from a
source to a load via a relay with open contacts,
compared to the power delivered directly, at a specified
frequency. If Vi is the incident voltage and V t is the
transmitted voltage, then isolation can be expressed in
decibel format as

where,
Vt is the transmitted voltage,
Vi is the incident voltage.
Latching Relay. A bistable relay, typically with two
coils, that requires a voltage pulse to change state.
When pulse is removed from the coil, the relay stays in
the state in which it was last set.
Life Expectancy. The average number of cycles that a
relay will achieve under specified load conditions
before the contacts fail due to sticking, missing or
excessive contact resistance. Expressed as mean cycles
before failure (MCBF).
Low Thermal Emf Relay. A relay designed specifically for switching low-voltage level signals such as
thermocouples. These types of relays use a thermally
compensating ceramic chip to minimize the thermal
offset voltage generated by the relay.

where,

Signal Rise Time. The rise time of a relay is the time
required for its output signal to rise from 10 90% of its
final value, when the input is changed abruptly by a step
function signal.
Shield, Coaxial. A conductive metallic sheath surrounding a reed relays reed switch, appropriately connected to external pins by multiple internal connections,
and designed to preserve a 50 : impedance environment within the relay. Used in relays designed for
high-frequency service to minimize impedance

Shield, Electrostatic. A conductive metallic sheath
surrounding a reed relays reed switch, connected to at
least one external relay pin, and designed to minimize
capacitive coupling between the switch and other relay
components, thus reducing high-frequency noise
pickup. It is similar to a coaxial shield, but not designed
to maintain a 50 : RF impedance environment.

13.2.4.1 Dc Relays
Direct current (dc) relays are designed to operate at
various voltages and currents by varying the dc resistance of the actuating coils, and may vary from a few to
several thousand ohms. Dc relays may operate as
marginal, quick-operate, slow-operate, or polarized.
A marginal relay operates when the current through
its winding reaches a specified value, and it releases
when the current falls to a given value.
Alternating-current (ac) relays are similar in construction to the dc relays. Since ac has a zero value every
half cycle, the magnetic field of an ac-operated relay
will have corresponding zero values in the magnetic
field every half cycle.
At and near the instants of zero current, the armature
will leave the core, unless some provision is made to
hold it in position. One method consists of using an
armature of such mass that its inertia will hold it in position. Another method makes use of two windings on
separate cores. These windings are connected so that
their respective currents are out of phase with each
other. Both coils effect a pull on the armature when
current flows in both windings.
A third type employs a split pole piece of which one
part is surrounded by a copper ring acting as a shorted
turn. Alternating current in the actuating coil winding
induces a current in the copper coil. This current is out
of phase with the current in the actuating coil and does
not reach the zero value at the same instant as the

SSRs have several advantages over their electromechanical counterparts: no moving parts, arcing, burning,

The light-emitting diode requires only 1.5 V to energize and has very rapid response time. The power
circuit consists of a high-speed phototransistor and an
SCR for dc power source, as well as a triac for ac application.
The relay not only responds with high speed but is
also capable of very fast repetitious operation and
provides very brief delays in turnoff. In some applications, the photocoupler housing provides a slotted
opening between the continuously lit light-emitting
diode and the phototransistor. Onoff control is
provided by a moving arm, vane, or other mechanical
device that rides in the slot and interrupts the light beam
in accordance with some external mechanical motion.
