Pitch edge card socket designed for space and cost savings
Samtec has announced the release of the industry’s first 0.50mm pitch edge card socket (MEC5) with justification beam. This design meets the demands for decreased size and increased speeds, while also optimising cost.
Reference designs smooth path to power solutions
Customers of the Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC family are being supported by Farnell element14 with the launch of two Texas Instruments reference design to ease the development of power solutions for customers developing innovative applications using these devices.
Power signal system features up to 60A blade profile
Samtec has released a higher density signal count and new AC power option available with the EXTreme Ten60Power system.TSamtec's EXTreme Ten60Power header and socket system (ET60T/ET60SSeries) is available in both power/signal combinations and power only for increased design flexibility.
Edge card connectors designed for higher speeds
Samtec has expanded its line of edge card connectors with 0.80 and 1.00mm pitch sockets designed for higher speed applications and optimal mating alignment.The 0.80mm pitch socket (HSEC8-DP series) is a differential pair version of Samtec’s popular Edge Rate 0.80mm pitch sockets. Rated for speeds to 28Gbps NRZ/56Gbps PAM4, the socket features Edge Rate contacts designed to increase cycle life and decrease crosstalk.
Online configurator is first step to custom connector
A Product Configurator from Samtec for customers to modify any Samtec Connector to obtain a variation which is exactly suited for their application is available at Farnell element14. The new online tool enables customers to modify connectors and download 2D and 3D models in just minutes.
Loopback cards provide convenient testing platform
Global manufacturer of a broad line of electronic interconnect solutions, Samtec, has announced the release of two new VITA 57.4-compliant FMC+ Loopback Cards. These new solutions provide FPGA designers easy to use loopback options for testing low-speed and high-speed multi-gigabit transceivers on any FPGA development board or FPGA carrier card.
Making a connection: a summary of RF connector trends
In a cost-effective way, Radio Frequency (RF) connectors seek to transfer data across multi-megahertz radio frequencies with minimal data loss from reflection and dispersion.Situated at the end of every cable with the job of transferring data to the next PCB or system, RF connectors operate like a gateway to the device-under-design; select the right one and the data being transferred passes without the least delay, select the wrong one and the si...
Connectors support high speed transmission for industrial applications
HIROSE has introduced the ER8 series of connectors that supports high speed transmission of more than 10Gbps for industrial applications.
Samtec announces 14 Gbps FireFlyTM FMC Development Kit
Samtec has announced the release of the new 14 Gbps FireFlyFMC Development Kit. This new solution offers an easy-to-use evaluation and development platform for Samtec’s FireFlyoptical engines.The 14 Gbps FireFlyFMC Module provides up to 140 Gbps full-duplex bandwidth over 10 channels from an FPGA to an industry-standard multi-mode fiber optic cable.
Chip-to-chip at the speed of light
As data centres and data farms continue to expand and grow, better solutions are required for system architectures that allow faster communication and more efficient operation. The physical limits imposed by copper PCB traces are being reached - communication over copper is limited to around 10GBps, and at high speeds losses limit the distances to a few inches.
