Power Relays For Military And Aerospace

These relays offer robust vibration, shock, and temperature resistance, along with flexible configuration options to meet the toughest system design requirements.

Microchip Technology has announced the release of its new BR235 and BR235D series of high-reliability power relays. Built to meet the rigorous standards of MIL-PRF-83536 and backed by ISO-9001 certification, these electromechanical relays deliver the performance and reliability needed for mission-critical military, space, and aviation applications.

The BR235 and BR235D series are hermetically sealed 25A 3PDT power relays designed to perform flawlessly in some of the harshest operating conditions. Offering robust electrical and mechanical endurance, these relays undergo rigorous testing for 30G vibration and 200G mechanical shock, and are qualified to operate across extreme temperature ranges from –70°C to +125°C.

The key features are:

• Designed for maximum flexibility to simplify system integration
• Available in both suppressed and non-suppressed models
• Supports coil voltages from 6–48V DC and 115V AC
• Offers multiple mounting styles, with or without mounting tabs
• Terminal options: straight or J-Hook configurations
• Choice of tin or gold plating to meet specific application requirements

The relays are available now in production volumes. “Microchip is dedicated to ensuring the aerospace and defence industry has consistent access to reliable, high-performance relays,” said Leon Gross, corporate vice president of Microchip’s discrete product group. “While others might scale back support or shift focus, Microchip is committed to long-term supply stability and innovation for mission-critical systems.”
