5V Bistable Latching Relay DPDT 2A 30VDC – HFD2/005-S-L2-D
5V Coil Bistable Latching Relay – DPDT HFD2/005-S-L2-D
This compact 5V bistable latching relay (model HFD2/005-S-L2-D) is an essential component for electronics projects, PCB designs, and automation circuits. With a DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) configuration and a 10-pin layout, this relay holds its switched state without continuous coil power — making it ideal for low-power, energy-efficient applications. Made in Mainland China.

Why Choose a Bistable Latching Relay?
Unlike standard relays, a bistable (latching) relay maintains its last switched position even after coil power is removed. This means zero standby power consumption once set — perfect for battery-powered devices, smart home automation, remote switching circuits, and any application where power efficiency is critical.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does "bistable latching relay" mean and how does the HFD2/005 work?
A: A bistable latching relay has two stable positions — ON and OFF — and holds whichever state it was last set to, even when coil power is removed. The HFD2/005-S-L2-D uses a 5V DC pulse to set or reset the relay position, consuming no ongoing power once switched. This makes it highly efficient for battery-operated and low-power circuit designs.
Q: What is the contact rating of this relay?
A: This DPDT relay is rated at 1A @ 125VAC for AC circuits and 2A @ 30VDC for DC circuits. It is designed for low-power signal switching applications and should not be used to switch heavy loads beyond these ratings.
Q: Is this relay compatible with standard PCB layouts?
A: Yes. The HFD2/005-S-L2-D features a standard 10-pin through-hole configuration that is compatible with most PCB designs that support the HFD2 footprint. Always verify your PCB footprint and pin assignments against the relay's datasheet before soldering.
