High Coil Resistance Reed Relays
Stacks on small 0.2 x 0.33 inches pitch
The Series 118 is a range of very sensitive reed relays, ideal for applications where low power consumption and a very small footprint is important.
• Switches rated at 10 Watts, 0.5 A or 15 Watts, 1 A
• Many benefits compared to industry standard relays. Learn more here >.
• Plastic package with internal mu-metal magnetic screen
• Small size means the relays take up very little board area, conserving PCB space
• Insulation resistance greater than 10E12 Ohms (1TOhms)
• 100% tested for dynamic contact resistance for guaranteed performance
• SoftCenter™ construction• Highest quality instrumentation grade switches
Two reed switch types are available. Switch type number 1 is better suited for general purpose applications, while Switch type number 2 is better suited to low level or ‘cold’ switching.
Both types feature high quality, instrumentation grade switch contacts and require a board area of only 0.2 x 0.33 inches (5.1 x 8.4 mm).
These relays feature internal mu-metal magnetic screens. Mu-metal has the advantage of a high permeability and low magnetic remanence and eliminates problems that would otherwise occur due to magnetic interaction. Relays of this size without magnetic screening would be totally unsuitable for applications where dense packing is required.
Initially, single pole versions only are available in this range but double pole versions will follow in the future.
All our data sheets have been recently updated to include additional environmental specifications, mechanical characteristics and relay weights, RF plots for coaxial relays (showing VSWR, isolation and insertion loss), interactive links to further useful information, comparison tables to similar relay ranges and much more.
