The MAYUR RELAY MODULE (Part ID: RELAY MODULE) is an electronic component designed to enable low-power signals to control high-power circuits. It is equipped with one or more relays, which function as electrically operated switches. This module is widely used in applications where electrical isolation and high-power control are required.
The following table outlines the key technical details of the MAYUR RELAY MODULE:
Parameter | Specification |
---|---|
Operating Voltage | 5V DC |
Trigger Voltage | 3.3V to 5V DC |
Relay Type | SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) |
Maximum Load Voltage | 250V AC / 30V DC |
Maximum Load Current | 10A |
Isolation | Optocoupler-based electrical isolation |
Dimensions | 50mm x 25mm x 18mm |
Operating Temperature | -40°C to 85°C |
The MAYUR RELAY MODULE typically has the following pin configuration:
Pin Name | Description |
---|---|
VCC | Power supply input (5V DC). |
GND | Ground connection. |
IN | Control signal input (3.3V to 5V logic level). |
NO | Normally Open terminal of the relay. Connected to COM when the relay is active. |
NC | Normally Closed terminal of the relay. Connected to COM when the relay is inactive. |
COM | Common terminal of the relay. |
Below is an example of how to use the MAYUR RELAY MODULE with an Arduino UNO to control a light bulb:
// Define the relay control pin
const int relayPin = 7;
void setup() {
// Set the relay pin as an output
pinMode(relayPin, OUTPUT);
// Start with the relay off
digitalWrite(relayPin, LOW);
}
void loop() {
// Turn the relay on (light bulb ON)
digitalWrite(relayPin, HIGH);
delay(5000); // Keep the light ON for 5 seconds
// Turn the relay off (light bulb OFF)
digitalWrite(relayPin, LOW);
delay(5000); // Keep the light OFF for 5 seconds
}

Noise or Chattering:
Q1: Can I use the relay module with a 3.3V microcontroller?
A1: Yes, the relay module is compatible with 3.3V logic levels, but ensure the power supply to the module is 5V.
Q2: Can the relay module control DC motors?
A2: Yes, the relay module can control DC motors, but use a flyback diode to protect the relay from voltage spikes.
Q3: Is the relay module safe for high-power applications?
A3: Yes, as long as the load does not exceed the specified voltage and current ratings (250V AC / 30V DC, 10A).
Q4: Can I use multiple relay modules with one microcontroller?
A4: Yes, you can use multiple modules, but ensure the microcontroller has enough GPIO pins and power capacity.
