Latching microwave relays
Staff -- Test & Measurement World, 5/1/2004
Four latching self-terminated 20-GHz relay modules join VXI Technology's Switch Modularity & Interface Platform (SMIP) to extend the series' modular off-the-shelf approach for microwave switching applications without sacrificing critical performance requirements. Models include a base unit with up to four SP6T relays and modules with 3, 6, or 12 SPDT relays. Each individual relay includes isolated indicator circuitry for direct access to relay status. In addition, each module supplies 32 SPST relays to control other microwave components, such as attenuators and splitters. Non-latching versions are also available.
