Upgraded Product Page Designs Makes Samtec Products Even Easier to Configure, Sample, and Buy
Prior to the design upgrade that I'm about to tell you about, we had been running the same layout on our series and part number pages for about 5 years.

New Connector Search Gives You A Mated Connector Set In Seconds
A Good Problem? Samtec has more ways to stack two or more boards together than any other connector company. Our manufacturing process allows us to position the plastic body on the terminal pin in increments of .005” (0.13 mm) on standard dual-body stacking connectors and on standard terminal strips (“headers”). Designers can create standard part numbers for very precise, non-industry-standard-board stacking heights. The good news is we have literally millions of connector … [Read more...]

New Cable Management System Improves SI, Thermals
Samtec works with system architects in the early stages of their design to create solutions for cable management which provide even distribution of thermal load. Using ultra-low skew twinax cable to route signals over the board is a key performance enabler as signal integrity and reach continue to become ever more important in high-speed applications.

The Future of Trade Shows
As I write this in early July, we are looking at the calendar of events and trade shows for this year, and there are few survivors. The Coronavirus pandemic of 2020 has seen almost all public events cancelled, from the Olympics to the Eurovision Song Contest. Less well reported, but of more importance to manufacturers like Samtec, is the almost total collapse of the trade show calendar. Trade shows are an important channel of communications with customers. A booth at a trade … [Read more...]
