Most SS relays I've seen are triac-based for AC       >only; one type would do DC, but not with the polarity changing (and at       >10x the cost anyway!).              MOSFET based solid state relays       handle DC or AC and shut off immediately       whereas SCR or TRIAC turn off AC only at the zero crossing.              see:       https://www.ti.com/document-viewer/lit/html/SSZTB27              --              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
