MEMS SWITCHES SXLT/SXNT
Sercalo's SXNT and SXLT series are fast switches for regular Test and Measurement applications. For applications where high reliability is required the newer SXLA variant should be chosen. The SXLA are latching type switches for telecom and test and measurement applications. The SXLA achieve excellent repeatability and reliability.
The switch offers smallest size, ease of integration and the established reliability of Sercalo’s MEMS components. The SX series are miniature opto-mechanical switches for fiber optic communication systems and submodules.
