can anyone give me idea of relay coil discharge during off conditions..

can anyone give me idea of relay coil discharge during off conditions..

the voltage takes time to discharge thru freewheel diode...


is there any ways so i can reduce the discharge time relay so can get better effect at the output...

If you are using fast response diode like zener diode and schottky diode, the discharge will take place fatsly.. so that, you reduce the time taken to discharge.

A relay coil generates a magnetic field, often concentrated in its core or magnetic circuit. When the current is interrupted, the field returns a reverse voltage on coil terminals.
You can "swallow" this voltage (often quite high) by connecting a diode across the coil, so the current can pass but the voltage gets "shorted" by the diode.
To fasten the process, the diode can be "fast" like a Schottky, and the coil inductance as small as possible. You can also replace the diode with a power MOSFET wih a low channel resistance, and use a control gate pulse to discharge the coil after the current ends.

jiripolivka..
thanks for the suggestions,
but during both conditions the gate will gate charge from coil upper end (coil second end will b gnd)
& i thing relay will not get the voltage

I do not understand what you mean by "gate charge". MOSFET channel is used to discharge the coil (it has a smaller resistance than a diode and no forward resistnce like a diode), and the gate is used to control the MOSFET.

where i should have to connect gate pin..??
