It utilizes as an output switch a unique bidirectional (AC or DC) MOSFET power IC termed a BOSFET. The BOSFET is controlled by a photovoltaic generator of novel construction, which is energized by radiation from a dielectrically isolated light emitting diode (LED). The PVR overcomes the limitations of reed relays by offering the solid state advantages of long life, high operating speed, low pick-up power, bounce-free operation, low thermal voltages and miniaturization. These advantages allow product improvement and design innovations in many applications such as process control, multiplexing, telecommunications, automatic test equipment and data acquisition. The PVR can switch analog signals from thermocouple level to 100 volts peak AC or DC polarity. Signal frequencies into the RF range are easily controlled and switching rates up to 5kHz are achievable. The extremely small thermally generated offset voltages allow increased measurement accuracies. Unique silicon technology developed by International Rectifier forms the heart of the PVR. The monolithic BOSFET contains a bidirectional N-channel power MOSFET output structure. In addition, this power IC chip has input circuitry for fa...
