New RoHS Compliant 5.0GHz Attenuator Relay for 50 & 75 Ohm applications.

Teledyne Relays introduces the A152 Series of ultraminiature broadband attenuator relays for use in 50-ohm and 75-ohm systems in the DC to 5.0 GHz frequency range.

The relay offers a normally closed, low-loss bypass path and a single element attenuated path. The attenuated path is an internal, matched, thin film attenuator pad in "Pi" configuration with a fixed 20 dB value, with other values ranging from 1 to 16 dB are available on request.

The A152 features gold-plated precious metal contacts which provide excellent intermodulation performance and high repeatability (+/-0.1db). Additional features are high isolation between control and signal path, high resistance to electrostatic discharge, a stable attenuated value over the frequency and temperature range, and excellent phase linearity.

Highly resistant to shock and vibration, the low profile and small grid spaced footprint of the A152 relay makes it ideal for use when packaging density is a prime consideration.
