Electromechanical relay and method of matching the impedance of the relay with the impedance of a signal source

摘要

An electromechanical relay (10) that includes a frame (52) and a header assembly (20) having a plurality of contacts (24, 26, 28). The relay (10) also includes a core assembly (62) having an end engaging the frame (52). The relay (10) further includes an armature assembly (64) pivotally connected to the core assembly (62). The armature assembly (64) has at least one actuator (76, 77) engaging one of the contacts (24, 26). The relay (10) also includes a shield (16) connected to the header assembly (20) and defining a cavity (84) in which the contacts (24, 26, 28) are disposed.
