Frequently asked questions
Do I need a flyback diode with this relay?
Yes, when the coil is driven from a transistor or microcontroller pin. A flyback diode across the coil protects the driver from the voltage spike when the coil is switched off.
Can I drive the 12V coil directly from an Arduino pin?
No. The coil is rated 12 VDC and an Arduino pin cannot supply enough current for it. Use a transistor or MOSFET driver powered from a 12 V supply, with the Arduino controlling its base or gate.
