TELEDYNE RELAYS SERIES RF100 RF103 N EW HIGH REPEATABILITY ULTRAMINIATURE CENTIGRID® RELAY BROADBAND DC TO RF SERIES DESIGNATION RELAY TYPE RF100 Repeatable, RF, Centigrid® relay RF103 Sensitive, repeatable, RF, Centigrid® relay INTERNAL CONSTRUCTION UNIFRAME UPPER STATIONARY CONTACT ARMATURE PERFORMANCE FEATURES The ultraminiature RF100 and RF103 relays are designed to provide improved RF signal repeatability over the frequency range by balancing the aggregate insertion loss elements of the relays’ design. Highly suitable for use in attenuator and other RF circuits, the RF 100 and RF103 feature: MOVING CONTACT LOWER STATIONARY CONTACTS • High repeatability. • Broader bandwidth. • Metal enclosure for EMI shielding. • Ground pin option to improve case grounding. • High isolation between control and signal paths. • Highly resistant to ESD. CONSTRUCTION FEATURES ENVIRONMENTAL AND PHYSICAL SPECIFICATIONS Temperature -55 °C to +85 °C Vibration (General Note 1) 10 G to 500 Hz Shock (General Note 1) 30 G, 6 ms. half sine Enclosure Hermetically sealed RF100 0.09 oz. (2.55 g) max. RF103 0.16 oz. (4.50 g) max. Weight The following unique construction features and manufacturing techniques provide excellent resistance to environmental extremes and overall high reliability. • Uni-frame motor design provides high magnetic efficiency and mechanical rigidity. • Minimum mass components and welded construction provide maximum resistance to shock and vibration. • Dual weld projection provides increased design robustness. • Advanced cleaning techniques provide maximum assurance of internal cleanliness. • Gold plated precious metal alloy contacts ensure reliable switching. • Hermetically sealed . Solderable leads.
