1x DC 5V Latching Relay Module with Touch bistable Switch
Product Description
Features:
- Latching Relay Design: The relay stays in its state (either ON or OFF) until it receives a command to change its state. This makes it ideal for power-saving applications where the relay doesn’t need constant power to maintain its state.
- Touch Bistable Switch: The module features a touch-sensitive switch, allowing for easy manual control of the relay without needing a mechanical switch.
- Microcontroller (MCU) Control: The module is designed to interface with microcontrollers (MCU) for additional automation and control, making it suitable for smart home and DIY projects.
- Single Channel Relay: It controls one electrical circuit, useful for applications where a single device needs to be toggled, like turning on/off lights or controlling small appliances.
- Compact Size: The small size of the module makes it easy to integrate into various electronic projects, minimizing space requirements.
Description:
The DC 5V Latching Relay Module with Touch Bistable Switch provides a simple and effective way to control a single electrical device using a touch switch. Unlike standard relays, a latching relay only consumes power momentarily when switching states, making it energy-efficient.
The module is controlled through a built-in microcontroller (MCU) that allows it to remember its last state even after a power loss. This feature is ideal for applications where it is essential to maintain the current state, such as in lighting control systems or smart home applications.
Additionally, the touch-sensitive switch provides a modern interface for manually toggling the relay without requiring physical movement. The module’s ability to work with both the touch switch and a microcontroller ensures versatility and ease of integration into automated systems.
FAQ:
What is the difference between a latching relay and a standard relay?
- A latching relay maintains its state (ON or OFF) even when power is removed, whereas a standard relay requires continuous power to hold its state.
How can I control this relay module?
- The module can be controlled using the touch-sensitive switch or through an MCU using a control pin, making it compatible with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or other microcontrollers.
What is the maximum current capacity of the relay?
- The relay can handle up to 10A, making it suitable for controlling devices with moderate power requirements.
Can this relay module be used for AC loads?
- Yes, the relay can switch AC loads, but ensure the current and voltage ratings do not exceed the module’s specifications.
Does the relay retain its state after a power outage?
- Yes, the latching relay design ensures that it retains its last state even after a power loss, which is ideal for applications where state memory is crucial.
