Please note, that this diagram
shows the SET/ RESET Voltage range
and the Maximum Voltage is 16 V
for coil at ambient temperature.

Not valid for continuous condition
since it is required, 
that the latching relays are
energized by impulses only.

 No Load Current considered.

 Notes:          
   
The benefit of a latching relay lies in the fact that it can be operated with short pulses so that the heat of the coil which normally is the highest contributor is not recognizable any more
Therefore a latching relay can carry higher currents than a neutral relay.
Latching relays need to be turned on by one pulse at one winding and turned off by a puls in the opposite direction or by another pulse to a second winding.
A latching relay is recognizable  by at least 3 coil pins instead of 2 of a neutral relays
 
Since the 2 windings of the coil of the TCL are not symmetrical you cannot swap the function from one winding to the other. The coils which require the pin 6 to be "minus" are marked with the letter "H" at the end.
 
A latching relay should be operated by pulses with a width between 10 ms and 1000ms.
 
If the pulse is too short, the relay may not operate. If the voltage is applied too long especially at high ambient temperature the coil might overheat quickly.
Apply a voltage to the coil in the polarity specified by the internal connection diagram of the relay.
Do not apply voltage at the set and reset windings at the same time.
 
A latching relay is factory-set to the reset state for shipment.
However, it may be SET while being transported due to vibration or shock.
 
Therefore it is recommendable to reset the relay before the PCB is tested.
 
The spring of this relay might relax if you run these relays in a SET condition through the reflow oven
 
Taiko recommends to RESET the relays in a special step before reflow soldering.
