SUMMARY

The Tyco Electronics Multimode Relay MT, specifically from the Schrack division, features a CO (change-over) contact configuration, which is analogous to a Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) setup. This configuration allows for versatile switching options in various applications. Understanding the pole and throw characteristics is crucial for effectively utilizing this relay in circuit designs.

I am currently looking at a Tyco Electronics Multimode Relay MT. (Schrack division). I am wondering what it means in the description when it mentions CO contact configuration.

It means "change-over", like in SPDT. See Pole and Throw section in

Thread 'uA709 op amp compensation'

Most likely this can only be answered by an "old timer". I am making measurements on an uA709 op amp (metal can). I would like to calculate the frequency rolloff curves (I can measure them). I assume the compensation is via the miller effect. To do the calculations I would need to know the gain of the transistors and the effective resistance seen at the compensation terminals, not including the values I put there. Anyone know those values?
