Product details
Overview
ASSR-3211-001E from Broadcom is a single-channel, normally-off, solid-state SPST relay (Form A) based on photo-MOSFET technology, featuring 250 V output withstand voltage, 0.2 A AC/DC current rating, and 8 Ω typical on-resistance. It optically isolates input LED control (3 mA turn-on threshold) from high-voltage output switching and is used in telecom signal routing, industrial PLC I/O modules, and medical equipment safety isolation.
For engineers reviewing the ASSR-3211-001E datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 3750 Vrms input-output isolation, 0.25 ms typical turn-on time, DC-only configuration enabling 0.4 A / 2.5 Ω operation, and 6-pin DIP through-hole package compatibility with legacy EMR footprints.
Technical Context
The ASSR-3211-001E integrates an AlGaAs infrared LED input stage optically coupled to a high-speed photovoltaic diode array and driver circuit that controls two discrete high-voltage MOSFETs. Its output stage supports both AC/DC and DC-only configurations, with R(ON) dropping from 8 Ω to 2.5 Ω and Io rising from 0.2 A to 0.4 A under DC-only connection (Connection B).
It delivers 3750 Vrms isolation per UL1577, 1 kV/μs transient immunity, and operates across –40°C to +85°C. Input logic is CMOS-compatible (IF = 3–20 mA), and turn-off occurs at VF ≤ 0.8 V - enabling direct microcontroller GPIO interfacing without external drivers.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar solid-state relay applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Toshiba TLP3558A | 6-pin DIP, 250 V/0.2 A, 10 Ω R(ON), 0.2 ms TON - slightly higher on-resistance and slower turn-off | Lacks DC-only configuration option; fixed 0.2 A rating regardless of wiring | Choose when UL1577 certification is not required and lower cost is prioritized over DC-current headroom |
| Vishay VO3120 | 8-pin DIP, 400 V/0.12 A, 16 Ω R(ON), 0.5 ms TON - higher voltage rating but lower current and slower switching | Designed for higher-voltage AC mains switching; unsuitable for low-R(ON) DC loads | Choose only for 240 V AC load isolation where 0.4 A DC capability is unnecessary |
Compared with TLP3558A and VO3120, the ASSR-3211-001E uniquely supports dual-mode output wiring to achieve 0.4 A/2.5 Ω performance - delivering 2× DC current capacity and 3× lower conduction loss than alternatives, critical for power-sensitive embedded control.

FAQ
What is the recommended input drive circuit for ASSR-3211-001E?
The ASSR-3211-001E requires a minimum 3 mA forward current through Pins 1–2 to reliably turn on. A 3.3 V or 5 V MCU GPIO can drive it directly using a series resistor: for 3.3 V, use 680 Ω (ensuring ≥4.9 mA at VF = 1.3 V); for 5 V, use 1.0 kΩ. Always include a 0.1 µF bypass capacitor near the device to suppress transients. This ensures stable activation of the ASSR-3211-001E across temperature and supply variations.
Can ASSR-3211-001E switch AC and DC loads simultaneously?
No - the ASSR-3211-001E must be wired in either AC/DC mode (Pins 3–4) or DC-only mode (Pins 3–5). AC/DC mode supports bidirectional blocking up to ±250 V but limits current to 0.2 A and R(ON) to 8 Ω. DC-only mode enables unidirectional 0.4 A current and 2.5 Ω R(ON), but cannot block reverse voltage. The correct wiring is defined in the ASSR-3211-001E schematic; mixing modes risks overstress or failure.
What safety certifications does ASSR-3211-001E hold?
The ASSR-3211-001E is UL Recognized per UL1577 (3750 Vrms for 1 minute) and CSA Component Accepted (Notice #5). It provides 4.9 mm minimum creepage and clearance, CTI of 175 V, and IIIa insulation group rating - satisfying reinforced insulation requirements for medical (IEC 60601-1) and industrial (IEC 61000-4-5) end-equipment. These certifications apply specifically to the ASSR-3211-001E in its 6-pin DIP package as shipped.
How does temperature affect the output current rating of ASSR-3211-001E?
The ASSR-3211-001E's maximum average output current derates linearly above 25°C ambient: at 60°C, rated current drops to ~0.15 A (AC/DC mode); at 85°C, it falls to ~0.1 A. Derating follows Figure 1 in the datasheet. For DC-only mode, the 0.4 A rating applies only at TA ≤ 25°C and requires heatsinking or airflow above 40°C. Exceeding these limits risks thermal runaway and permanent damage to the ASSR-3211-001E MOSFET die.
Is ASSR-3211-001E compatible with lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes - the ASSR-3211-001E is RoHS-compliant and qualified for lead-free reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020. Peak temperature must not exceed 260°C for ≤10 seconds, with ramp rates ≤3°C/sec (preheat) and ≤6°C/sec (reflow). The device uses matte tin plating and passes the 260°C/10s test without delamination or parametric shift. Always follow the exact profile in AV02-0260EN Section 8 to ensure long-term reliability of the ASSR-3211-001E.
