732-26

The TO-5 relay, originally conceived and developed by Teledyne, has become one of the industry standards for low-level switching from dry circuit to 1 ampere. Designed for high-density PC board mounting, the 732 relay is one of the most versatile ultraminiature relays available because of its small size and low coil power dissipation The integrated packaging of the relay with its associated semiconductor devices greatly reduces PC board floor space requirements as well as component installation costs. By virtue of its inherently low intercontact capacitance and contact circuit losses, the 732 relay has proven to be an excellent ultraminiature RF switch for frequency ranges well into the UHF spectrum. A typical RF application for the TO-5 relay is in handheld radio transceivers, wherein the combined features of good RF performance, small size, low coil power dissipation and high reliability make it a preferred method of Transmit-Receive switching.
