Post by thread:[OT] Silent relay

Have you thought about using a small dual-in-line sealed relay ? Looks like a thick 14-pin IC. I used one a long time ago in a circuit that turned your voice into a Dalek-type sound, very mechanical. They're very quiet and from memory this one was driven at 100- 400 Hz with no problems. Jinx > Is there a way to lessen the relay noise when > switching? I'm using an OMRON +5V relay (G5V-2).

Where can I get one? What is that relay called? I'm sure the electronic stores here won't be able to distinguish what type of relay is that. Thanks as usual, Jinx.

Jane, I have also used these type of relays. Try HAMLIN ( http://www.hamlin.com )or try ALEPH (http://www.aleph-usa.com ), HASCO ( http://www.reedswitches.com ) or TELEDYNE relays (http://www.teledynerelays.com ). I can personally recommend all of them. The Teledyne relays that I use are quite, VERY low insertion loss (for RF), and low current consumption. Really, the needs depend on your application. Hope this helps.
