Centigrid® RF Relay - RF100/GRF100 and RF103/GRF103 Series
The Centigrid® RF100 and GRF100 repeatable RF relays, along with the Centigrid® RF103 and GRF103 sensitive repeatable RF relays are ultra-miniature, hermetically sealed with DPDT contact configurations designed to provide improved RF signal repeatability over the frequency range. The through hole mount RF103 (stock number 758-2509) and the surface mount GRF103 (stock number 758-2470) are sensitive coil versions of the through hole mount RF100 (stock numbers 399-9414 and 399-9420), they have twice the coil resistance of the standard versions so require half the power to operate. Both the sensitive and standard types have a 2.54mm Centigrid® pitch. The RF100 (399-9414 and 399-9420) have a 7.37mm profile height, the RF103 (758-2509) has a 10.03mm profile, the GRF103 (758-2470) has a 11.05mm profile height. The surface mount GRF100 and GRF103 Centigrid® relays feature a unique ground shield that isolates and shields each lead to ensure excellent contact-to-contact and pole-
to-pole isolation. This ground shield provides a ground interface that results in improved high frequency performance as well as parametric repeatability. These Centigrid® relays are designed for use in RF attenuator switching in Test & Measurement applications, bypass and combiner switching functions in GSM applications, wireless LAN and many other applications that require dependable high performance in which high speed signals must be transferred.
Broad bandwidth Hermetically sealed Gold plated contacts Metal enclosure for EMI shielding with high resistance to ESD High isolation between control and signal paths Excellent resistance to shock and vibration High reliability and excellent resistance to environmental extremes Uni-frame design provides high magnetic efficiency and mechanical rigidity
Note
RF100 and RF103 are through hole mount, GRF100 and GRF103 are surface mount Centigrid® relays.
