ATE Standard Form "C" SMD Reed Relay Available
Coto Technology's 9852 Form "C" SMD, ultra-miniature reed relay features longer life and optimized performance for ATE, Process Instrumentation and Telecommunications applications. Expected life is 200 million cycles (N/O contact), and 100 million (N/C) at 1V 10mA load. RF bandpass (-3dB) is 4GHz (N/O) or 3GHz (N/C). Isolation and return losses at 1 GHz are -10dB and -20dB respectively. An external magnetic shield reduces electromagnetic interaction between closely spaced relays. And, with a footprint of 0.078 sq. in., the 9852 is the smallest Form "C" SMD reed relay available in high-volume mass production. The 9852's combination of small size, long life and good RF bandpass is unattainable by electromechanical or micromachined relays. Gull-wing, "J"-lead or axial surface-mount styles are available.
