APPLICATION NOTE
RELAY DRIVE PROTECTION
INTRODUCTION
A fast switch-off in an inductive circuit causes overvoltages and electromagnetic interferences that can
damage peripheral elements. When a relay drive circuit is not protected, it is frequent to find some con-
tacts destroyed by the arc due to the overvoltage or failed transistors after initial use. Various solutions
exist which limit the voltage at the terminals of the switching circuit in order to prevent any damage.
There follow some examples.
PASSIVE COMPONENTS
Resistive network, capacitor (see circuit a, Figure 1).
This is an……
