• Compatible with various microcontroller platforms (e.g., Arduino, Raspberry Pi)
• LED indicator for relay status
• Compact design for easy integration

Technical Specifications:

• Relay Type: SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw)
• Operating Voltage: 5V DC
• Trigger Voltage: 3.3V to 5V DC
• Control Signal: Low-level trigger (active low)
• Max Switching Voltage: 250V AC / 30V DC
• Max Switching Current: 10A
• Optocoupler Isolation: Yes
• Dimensions: Approximately 50mm x 26mm x 18mm

Applications:

• Home automation systems
• Industrial control
• Robotics
• Smart appliances

• Automation projects

Usage:

1. Connection:
   • Connect the VCC and GND pins to the 5V and GND of the microcontroller.
   • Connect the IN pin to a digital output pin of the microcontroller to control the relay.
   • Connect the relay output terminals (COM, NO, and NC) to the load as per the required switching configuration.
2. Programming:
   • Write code to control the relay using the digital output pin, setting it HIGH or LOW to turn the relay on or off.
   • Use libraries or direct pin control methods as appropriate for your microcontroller platform.
3. Testing:
   • Verify the relay operation by toggling the control pin and observing the LED indicator and the switching of the connected load.

Caution:

• Ensure proper insulation and safety measures when handling high voltage circuits.
• Verify the load specifications and ensure they are within the relay’s rated capacity.
• Handle the module carefully to avoid damage to the relay and the optocoupler.
