RF Electromechanical switches are a key active device in many signal chains, including time-domain duplex communications and pulsed radar applications. Such switches can be as simple as a 3-port toggle switch, or single pole double throw, or more complicated as double pull switches or single pole switches with more than 10 poles. A main benefit ..

We have expanded and now have a large portfolio of in-stock general purpose RF electromechanical relay switches for a wide range of applications. The recent electromechanical relay switch expansion covers many RF, microwave and millimeter wave applications. These new electromechanical RF  relay switches are uniquely qualified for use in numerous applications including military communications, radar, ..

RF, microwave and millimeter wave  electromechanical relay and PIN diode switches route signals through transmission paths with a high degree of efficiency. Four fundamental RF, microwave and millimeter wave switch electrical design parameters characterize how these electromechanical relay and PIN diode switch designs perform. Several electrical parameters are associated with the performance of microwave and ..
