Expanded interfaces

Tuesday, 15 September, 2009 | Supplied by: Samtec ANZ


Samtec has expanded its Edge Rate range with the addition of 0.8 mm pitch right-angle and edge-mount connector strips for perpendicular and co-planar applications.

The systems feature the company’s Edge Rate contacts that minimise broadside coupling, decrease crosstalk between adjacent contacts, and offer low insertion/withdrawal forces and high cycles.

Right-angle (EFM8-RA/ERF8-RA) and edge-mount (ERM8-EM/ERF8-EM series) terminals and sockets offer up to 150 I/Os in single-ended or differential pair configurations with a standard choice of 10 to 75 positions per row (dependent on orientation).

Suitable for rugged and harsh environments, the strips are robust when zipped during unmating and feature an optional rugged metal latching system.

The connectors may also mate with the Edge Rate board stacking system (ERM8/ERF8 series). Cable mates for the strips include 34 AWG EyeSpeed micro coax high speed (ERCD series) and signal integrity-optimising ‘direct-to-lead’ (ERCDA series) cable assemblies, 30 AWG EyeSpeed Twinax high speed cable assemblies (ERDP series) and high speed flex data links with Edge Rate contacts (ERDL2 series).
