DC 5V Relay Without Module

Description:
The DC 5V relay is a versatile, electrically operated switch that allows you to control high-power devices using low-power control signals. It is typically used in various automation, control, and switching applications. Unlike relays with modules, this version is just the relay itself, providing the flexibility for custom circuits or integration into more advanced projects. It operates with a 5V DC control voltage, making it ideal for projects involving microcontrollers like Arduino or Raspberry Pi.

Specifications:

Key Features:

• Low Control Voltage: Operates with a standard 5V DC signal, making it easy to control using most microcontrollers like Arduino or Raspberry Pi.
• High Switching Capacity: Capable of switching high-power AC or DC loads, useful in home automation, appliance control, or industrial applications.
• SPDT / DPDT Configuration: Available in Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) or Double Pole Double Throw (DPDT) configurations, offering flexibility for various switching needs.
• Compact Design: Its small form factor allows easy integration into custom projects, including circuit boards or standalone applications.
• No Module: Since it does not come with a module, the relay is suitable for those who want more control over the design and circuitry of their project.

Applications:

• Home Automation: Control devices like lights, fans, or appliances from a microcontroller or automation system.
• Industrial Control Systems: Switch high-power devices or machinery remotely.
• Arduino Projects: Used in DIY electronics projects that require the switching of high-power components, such as motors, solenoids, or LEDs.
• Remote Control Systems: Often used in remote control or automation systems where you need to switch devices on/off remotely.
• Automotive Projects: Control relays in automotive systems or for devices requiring 5V DC control.

Usage Tips:

• Correct Wiring: Make sure to correctly wire the relay’s input (coil) and output (contacts). The input needs to be connected to the control signal, while the output connects to the device you're controlling.
• Flyback Diode: Use a flyback diode across the relay coil to protect your control circuit from voltage spikes generated when the relay coil is de-energized.
• Current Limiting: Ensure that the current drawn by the relay’s load does not exceed the rated current to avoid damaging the relay.
• Relay Activation: Ensure a stable 5V DC signal is provided to the relay coil for proper activation.
