DESCRIPTION
The ultraminiature GRF700 and GRF703 relays are designed to provide a
practical surface-mount solution with improved RF signal repeatability over
the frequency range. GRF700 and GRF703 relays feature a unique ground
shield that isolates and shields each lead to ensure excellent contact-tocontact and pole-to-pole isolation. This ground shield provides a ground
interface that results in improved high-frequency performance as well as
parametric repeatability. The GRF700 and GRF703 extend performance
advantages over similar RF devices that simply offer formed leads for
surface mounting. These relays are engineered for use in RF attenuator, RF
switch matrices, ATE and other applications that require dependable high
frequency signal fidelity and performance.
• High repeatability
• Broader bandwidth
• Metal enclosure for EMI shielding

The following unique construction features and manufacturing techniques
provide excellent robustness to environmental extremes and overall high
reliability:
• Uniframe motor design provides high magnetic efficiency and
mechanical rigidity
• Minimum mass components and welded construction provide maximum
resistance to shock and vibration
• Advanced cleaning techniques provide maximum assurance of internal
cleanliness
• Gold-plated precious metal alloy contacts ensure reliable switching
• Hermetically sealed
The Series GRF700D/GRF703D and GRF700DD/GRF703DD relays have
internal discrete silicon diodes for coil suppression and polarity reversal
protection.This hybrid package reduces required PC board floor space
by reducing the number of external components needed to drive the relay.
The GRF700 and GRF703 feature:

RF NOTES
1. One million cycle repeatability data is based upon 396 observations with an average repeatability ±0.033 dB
and a range of ±0.093 dB.
2. Repeatability of attenuation values were obtained from tests conducted in a 20 dB attenuator network with a 0 dBm
input signal.
3. Relay operates at frequencies higher than 3 GHz with reduced RF performance characteristics.
4. Curves were developed from tests performed on a 0.031" copper clad, reinforced PTFE circuit board at 20°C (ref).
The unutilized contacts were terminated in 50 ohms; characteristic impedance of measuring equipment is 50 ohms.
The relays were mounted flush to the circuit board ground plane without the relay header soldered to the ground
plane.
