B40 4-Channel RF Relays

NOTES:

standards for dry reed relays, # RS-421 and

RS-436, if a suitable parametric standard exists.

channel when all channel coils are driven at

nominal coil voltage and with the same drive

polarity.

ENVIRONMENTAL RATINGS:

Storage Temperature: -35°C to +100°C.

Operating Temperature: -20°C to +85°C.

Vibration: sinusoidal vibration with an amplitude of

10G over a 10Hz to 2000Hz frequency range shall

not cause a closed channel activated at the nominal

coil voltage to open, not an open channel to close.

Max Soldering Temperature: 226°C (438°F) max for

1 minute dwell time. Temperature measured at a

relay ball termination.
