Re: relay switching circuit

They don't? I guess I'm not using "modern" NFETs then ... :(

Or are you just gonna rely on the body diode?

Body diode doesn’t come into play. Some modern fets have published avalanche energy ratings, so exceeding Vbvds can be permitted.

Even when fets are specified for avalanche energy, there is seldom a hint of what the avalanche voltage might be.

I don't mind helping beginners. Their questions sometimes evoke interesting issues.

My pcb designer thinks he can route out 134 available balls of our FPGA, and I think I can drive all those relays with just one sot23 fet under each relay.

We'll selective-solder the thru-hole relay pins and the solder nozzle will just barely not desolder the fet.
