Micro-Machined Relay (2 x 3 mm)

As devices in the measuring/communications market continue to shrink in size and transmit data at increasingly higher speeds in a shift to higher frequencies, the demand for the same characteristics grows more intense in the key components that comprise these devices. This demand has prompted research and development at OMRON that uses MEMS technology to downsize and accelerate relays, switches and other control devices. OMRON has applied its highly efficient actuator (EAGLE) and high-frequency, low-loss structure (HF structure) to develop the world's smallest micro-machined relays. With superior high-speed characteristics (insertion loss: -0.5 dB at 2 GHz, isolation: -45 dB at 2 GHz) and virtually no deterioration of performance in switching tests of one million cycles, these relays are now on the verge of industrialization. Meanwhile, OMRON has launched research and development aimed at further reducing size and increasing transmission speed, which is revolutionizing the size and speed of relays.
