Fairview Microwave has announced its Quartz Series of surface-mount failsafe electromechanical relay switches. These precision switches come in a pioneering micro- sized package and offer an extensive frequency bandwidth from DC up to an impressive 26 GHz.
The Series also stands out for its robust power handling, capable of managing up to 40 W average power during hot switching. Each switch in the series is built with failsafe actuators, and both 12 and 24 V models are offered.
Designed for demanding conditions, these switches can withstand challenges from sine vibration to mechanical shock, reinforcing their durability. A unique feature of this series is its gold-plated mounting surface, which resists oxidation, ensuring a prolonged and reliable connection. Also for reliability, they have a lifecycle rating of 5M.
Fairview Microwave ‘s product line manager, Kevin Hietpas, said: “Our new Quartz Series pushes the boundaries of RF technology. These switches deliver unparalleled performance while adhering to the industry’s eco-compliance standards.”
