RELAY TYPE
Attenuator relay series
SERIES
GA152
DESCRIPTION
The Series GA152 highly repeatable ultraminiature
attenuator relays are designed for attenuating RF signals in
50-ohm systems over a frequency range from DC to 5 GHz.
Their low profile and small grid spacing makes them ideal
for use when packaging density is a prime consideration.
The GA152 relays eliminate the need for additional external
resistors/attenuators.
These single section, switchable attenuator relays have
an internal matched thin film attenuator pad in a “Pi”
configuration. Relays are available in a fixed increment
of 20 dB.
The GA152 attenuator relay features:

• High repeatability.
• Unique uni-frame motor design which provides high
magnetic efficiency and mechanical rigidity.
• Minimum mass components and welded construction
for maximum resistance to shock and vibration.
• Advanced cleaning techniques which assures internal
cleanliness.
• Gold plated, precious metal contacts, which provide
excellent intermodulation performance.
• Flat amplitude vs. frequency response.
• High isolation between control and signal path.
• Stable attenuation vs. temperature.
• Excellent phase linearity.
• Highly resistant to ESD.

GENERAL NOTES
1. Contacts will exhibit no contact chatter in excess of
10 μs or transfer in excess of 1 μs.
2. Relays may be operated at higher frequencies with
reduced RF performance.
3. For optimal RF performance, solder case to RF ground
plane.
4. Attenuation values shown are with reference to the
through path (low loss state).
5. Power handling for case temperatures of –55°C to
+55°C is 1 Watt. Derate power handling 25 mW/°C
above +55°C. Case measurement point is adjacent to
the relay tab.
6. Do not operate coil at maximum coil voltage
continuously.
7. Insert attenuation value, see part numbering system.
8. Switching time includes bounce.
9. The slash and characters appearing after the slash are
not marked on the relay.
10. Unless otherwise specified, relays will be supplied with
either gold-plated or solder-coated leads.
