Solid-state relays (SSRs) control load currents through solid-state switches such as triacs, SCRs, or power transistors. Solid-state relays (SSRs) control load currents through solid-state switches ...

Solid-state relays are much smaller than corresponding single-pole relays. They are also faster, dissipate less power, and withstand a larger number of operations. And unlike electromechanical relays, ...

Hybrid relays are changing the way we think about switching inside electronic circuits. By combining the fast response of solid-state components with the reliability of mechanical contacts, these ...

The big picture: Researchers from the University of California have developed a first-of-its-kind, solid-state thermal transistor that could one day be used to better control heat in electronic ...
