Hello,

I'm probably going for some kind of diminished-intelligence award here, but I've seen mention of micro relays and I don't know where you guys get them.

I like the idea (space concerns) and imagine they package nicely like a 451M, so I'd like to know more. Interweb searches have been less than helpful (due to my lack of using proper search vernacular, I'm sure). It would be nice to have something that packages more compactly than conventional SPDT/SPST Bosch/Tyco style box relays and sockets.

Thank you.

Any where, PCB power relays.

Thank you. I googled PCB power relays and the results are numerous and scattered. Is there a particular spec people use? What about relay sockets?
