The OMRON G5V-1 is an ultra-miniature, highly sensitive 6-pin electromagnetic relay designed for efficient signal switching in telecommunications, handheld electronics, and automated testing equipment. Its exceptionally small footprint and high switching reliability make it the industry standard for dense PCB designs requiring low power consumption.
Single-Pole Double-Throw (SPDT): Features a high-efficiency 6-pin configuration (1 Form C) for flexible circuit control.
Ultra-Miniature Design: One of the smallest signal relays available, significantly reducing required board space compared to standard relays.
Energy-Efficient 12VDC Coil: Designed for 12V DC power systems with high coil sensitivity to minimize power draw.
Wide Load Capability: Capable of switching resistive loads from low-level signals up to 1A at 30VDC, offering versatility for diverse electronic tasks.
Fully Sealed Construction: Housed in a durable black resin casing that is plastic-sealed, allowing for automatic soldering and protecting internal contacts from environmental damage.
High Reliability Contacts: Engineered for millions of operations, ensuring stable performance in critical logic-level switching.
Model: G5V-1.
Coil Voltage: 12VDC.
Pin Count: 6-Pin Through-Hole (DIP) Mounting.
Contact Configuration: SPDT (1 Form C).
Load Rating (Resistive): 1A at 30VDC / 0.5A at 125VAC / 0.3A at 60VDC.
Safety Standards: UL recognized and CSA certified.
Consumer Electronics: Perfect for signal routing in smart home hubs, modems, and portable diagnostic tools.
Logic Level Interface: Frequently used to interface between low-power microcontrollers and small peripheral devices.
Measurement & Testing: Ideal for switching measurement paths in high-density test fixtures and instrumentation boards.
Network Equipment: Used in telecommunications switching systems where space and power efficiency are paramount.
Can I use this to switch a high-voltage AC motor? No. This relay is rated for signal-level loads up to 125VAC/0.5A. It is not designed for heavy inductive loads like motors or high-power lighting.
How does the pinout differ from the 8-pin G5A model? The 6-pin G5V-1 is a Single-Pole (SPDT) relay, meaning it controls one circuit. The 8-pin G5A is a Double-Pole (DPDT) relay that can control two independent circuits simultaneously.
Is this relay washable after soldering? Yes. The plastic-sealed construction is specifically designed to withstand immersion cleaning and protect against flux ingress during the manufacturing process.
