Magnetic Latching
The Series GRF342 relay is a hermetically sealed, ultraminiature RF relay designed from inception for surface mount applications. This magnetic-latching relay features extremely low internal circuit losses for exceptional time and frequency domain response characteristics through and beyond the UHF spectrum and into the S band. The GRF342 features 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 an RF ground interface that results in improved high-frequency performance as well as parametric repeatability. The GRF342 extends performance advantages over similar RF devices that simply offer formed leads for surface mounting.
