International Microwave Symposium 2019

Samtec will participate at the International Microwave Symposium (IMS) 2019 in Boston, MA, June 4 – 6, exhibiting in booth 683. The exhibition at IMS 2019 showcases the industry leaders with state-of-the-art microwave offerings and technical expertise. Samtec is uniquely positioned by offering RF/SI engineering expertise at each connection point – understanding RF assemblies require the board, connectors, and cable to all work as a single unit for optimum performance. This enables us to provide full mated set solutions, with launch optimization, simulation, and test & measurement support.

Increasing complex systems with escalating bandwidths and shrinking footprints are what drive Samtec to continually expand and develop its technical expertise and capabilities. This has prompted the advanced RF product line, with high frequency bands from DC to 110 GHz performance.

Designed for a wide range of use in the microwave/millimeter wave industry, Samtec’s precision RF interconnects are manufactured with a precise tolerance interface to ensure superior electrical repeatability and high mechanical stability. Solutions include board level mates, cable connectors and full cable assemblies:

• 1.0 mm                                   
• 1.85 mm
• SMPM
• 2.40 mm
• SMP
• 2.92 mm
• 3.50 mm
• SSMA
• N Type
• TNC
• SMA
• Adaptors

Bulls Eye® Test Assembly is a Samtec original solution that allows for smaller evaluation boards and shorter trace lengths. The high-density array design and advanced cabling solutions enable optimized performance to 70 GHz. A compression interface provides easy on/off and eliminates soldering costs, while the small footprint design saves significant board space versus traditional SMAs.
