Automotive-qualified PhotoMOS®

Automotive grade PhotoMOS® relays provide enhanced quality controls.

PhotoMOS® relays for passenger safety

The car chassis must be reliably galvanically-isolated from the HV battery. Automotive PhotoMOS® relays can be used as fast electronic switches in order to detect leakage currents in a isolation-monitoring application.

Key Features

Available for high voltages up to 1500V
Minimal leakage current (typ. <1nA)
Turn-on time: max. 0.5ms -1.0ms
Turn-off time: max. 0.5ms
Tested according to AEC-Q101
Input/output isolation ≤5kVrms
No threshold voltage
Stable On-resistance over entire lifetime
Highly resistant to shock and vibration

Isolation monitoring

PhotoMOS® technology is used to check the isolation between high voltage (HV) and low voltage (LV) in hybrid and electronic vehicles (HEV/EV). In connection with high-ohmic resistors (shunts), the secure separation of the high voltage and low voltage sides of the electrical system can be checked.
