Designed to connect PCBs to backplanes, 2E SysCom DIN 41617 male and female headers provide up to 31 contacts, with each contact capable of handling 6 A. Male connectors feature straight or right ...

As a signal travels across a network, it focuses only on what it sees in its path. And increases in data rates over the past few decades have made this path a bit more clouded. System infrastructure ...

TE Connectivity and Credo are teaming up at DesignCon 2018 to demonstrate a system that can transmit data at rates of up to 112Gbit/s over PCB backplanes. In the demonstration, TE’s OSFP IO connector ...

Communications equipment requiring high-speed transmission capabilities can be helped to achieve these goals with the Tempus HS (High Speed) Series of two-piece, Futurebus+ style connectors.

A few key principles can guide the development of PCBs and backplanes. These are based on some key characteristics of high-speed signal behavior and responses: First is the deterministic nature of the ...

High performance computing systems by necessity pack as many boards in an enclosure as possible. But the fact they are high performance means they generate a lot of heat. Cooling them becomes an ...

Developing connectors for multi-gigabit applications is one of the greatest challenges in the field of electromechanical component engineering. Achieving good signal integrity calls for a very good ...

Southampton-based APW Electronic Solutions has introduced BFFR (bromide-free flame retardant) PCBs as an option at its Hedge End backplane manufacturing plant. Increasing concerns over the ...
