The high frequency reed switch series is engineered for precision switching in RF and high-speed digital applications. These switches are optimized to handle signals from DC up to 7 GHz, making them ideal for use in telecommunications, computing, and advanced test equipment.
With nickel/iron leads offering high magnetic permeability, these reed switches deliver exceptional linearity across a broad frequency spectrum. Their compact form factor allows for high-density PCB mounting, and internal shielding ensures minimal electromagnetic interference, even in tightly stacked configurations.
These switches are commonly integrated into high-frequency reed relays for enhanced durability and performance.
