Solid-State Relay Outputs

Ona 6527 devi ce,I/O connectorpins 5 1 through 98, shown in Figure 3-1,

represent the terminals of the solid-state relays.

Output Channels

The output channels of a 6527 device are solid-state relays containing an

LEDand two MOSFETs connected together to form a bidirectional switch.

TheLH1546 is a solid-state relay. Depending o n how the load is connected

to theterminals, an output can either source or sink currents.

Figure 3-5 showstwo signal connection examples for driving a load with

these solid-state relays.
