8 Channel 5volt Relay Module

3,936 views

8 channel 5V relay module is used to control various appliances and equipment by switching ON and OFF AC or DC loads with large current. The module can easily be controlled with a variety of microcontrollers. It consists of 8 optically isolated digital inputs. The ground of the relay coils is separated from the ground for the input signals.

It can work with both 3.3V and 5V. Each channel requires a very small driving current of about 15-20mA. The relays work under 250V / 10 A (AC) or 30V / 10A (DC). Being optically and magnetically isolated makes this module safer by providing protection to the input from the electrical faults at the output.

Features of Relay Module
