Relay 5 click

‍Relay 5 Click is a compact add-on board with general-purpose relays that any host MCU can control. This board features three J1031C3VDC.15S, a high-current single-pole double-throw (SPDT) signal relays controlled by the PCA9538A, a low-voltage 8-bit I/O port expander from NXP Semiconductors. Highly sensitive, the J1031C3VDC.15S offers a low coil power consumption in a small, lightweight package with PC pin mounting. It comes with a dimension of 12.5x7.5x10 millimeters (LxWxH) and a 1C contact arrangement with a coil voltage of 3VDC, providing a maximum switching voltage of 125VAC/60VDC.

Click library

• Author : Stefan Filipovic
• Date : Mar 2023.
• Type : I2C type

Software Support

We provide a library for the Relay 5 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.

Package can be downloaded/installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Library Description

‍This library contains API for Relay 5 Click driver.

Standard key functions :

• relay5_cfg_setup Config Object Initialization function.

  void relay5_cfg_setup ( relay5_cfg_t *cfg );

• relay5_init Initialization function.

  err_t relay5_init ( relay5_t *ctx, relay5_cfg_t *cfg );

• relay5_default_cfg Click Default Configuration function.

  err_t relay5_default_cfg ( relay5_t *ctx );

Example key functions :

• relay5_set_relay1_open This function sets the relay 1 to normally open state by setting the RL1 pin to low logic level.

  err_t relay5_set_relay1_open ( relay5_t *ctx );

• relay5_set_relay1_close This function sets the relay 1 to normally close state by setting the RL1 pin to high logic level.

  err_t relay5_set_relay1_close ( relay5_t *ctx );

• relay5_switch_relay1 This function switches the relay 1 state by toggling the RL1 pin logic level.

  err_t relay5_switch_relay1 ( relay5_t *ctx );

Example Description

‍This example demonstrates the use of Relay 5 click board by toggling the relays state.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

‍Initializes the driver and logger.

void application_init ( void )
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;  
    relay5_cfg_t relay5_cfg;  
    LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
    log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
    log_info( &logger, " Application Init " );
 
    // Click initialization.
    relay5_cfg_setup( &relay5_cfg );
    RELAY5_MAP_MIKROBUS( relay5_cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
    if ( I2C_MASTER_ERROR == relay5_init( &relay5, &relay5_cfg ) ) 
    {
        log_error( &logger, " Communication init." );
        for ( ; ; );
    }
    
    if ( RELAY5_ERROR == relay5_default_cfg ( &relay5 ) )
    {
        log_error( &logger, " Default configuration." );
        for ( ; ; );
    }
    
    log_info( &logger, " Application Task " );
}

Application Task

‍Switches all relays state every 5 seconds and displays the state on the USB UART.

void application_task ( void )
{
    relay5_set_relay1_open ( &relay5 );
    log_printf( &logger, " Relay 1 set to normally open state\r\n" );
    relay5_set_relay2_close ( &relay5 );
    log_printf( &logger, " Relay 2 set to normally close state\r\n" );
    relay5_set_relay3_open ( &relay5 );
    log_printf( &logger, " Relay 3 set to normally open state\r\n\n" );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
 
    relay5_set_relay1_close ( &relay5 );
    log_printf( &logger, " Relay 1 set to normally close state\r\n" );
    relay5_set_relay2_open ( &relay5 );
    log_printf( &logger, " Relay 2 set to normally open state\r\n" );
    relay5_set_relay3_close ( &relay5 );
    log_printf( &logger, " Relay 3 set to normally close state\r\n\n" );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
}

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Other Mikroe Libraries used in the example:

• MikroSDK.Board
• MikroSDK.Log
• Click.Relay5

Additional notes and informations

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. UART terminal is available in all MikroElektronika compilers.
