Need parts for relay circuit...

Post by Tonegeek »

Does anyone know a Mouser part# (or other source) for the sockets that will accomodate the 551-ec2-12nj relays :?: I believe they have 2.54mm leg spacing.

Also is anyone making relay circuit boards for 3 relays (and fitting aforementioned sockets) :?:
thanks

Is that for the sockets?
I'm getting ready as well to do a footswitch mod on my D44.
But I have to decide on what relays I'm going to use.
Some guys are using 5v and some are using 12v.
I'm only going to use two relays so I don't think it will be taxing the PS.

I'll probably just use some of that padded type perf board unless I can find a board made to accept the relays.

Mouser does show 575-113316 as being a 16 pin socket and it appears to have the right dimensions for the 12nj relays. The 14 pin version looks like it will work too. the relay only has 8 pins but needs at least a 10 pin socket due to the pin spacing.

Does anybody make a PCB that is compatible with the relay pinouts or socket pinouts?
Just a generic type one with some pad holes to solder wires to?
Thanks

I think Radio Shack has something like that.

Yes, I was at the shack the other day and that one caught my eye.
Won't be as pretty as a PCB but should be fine.

On the D'Lite layout the power supply running off the 5v taps has a 56 ohm dropping resistor. This PS has a voltage doubler.

I plan on running two 12v relays for PAB and OD switching.
Anybody know if that value of resistor will provide enough voltage for both relays to latch when both are on?
