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. I spoke to Aaron Tucker, Samtec's Engineering Director of High Data Rate Products, about the need for these cable management systems, design … [Read more...]

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...]
Salt Fog Resistant Optical Modules For Mil/Aero
Data centers drive volume use for modern optical transceivers. These have favorable conditions for the optics, with low humidity and tightly controlled temperatures, which in turn has enabled a low-cost design approach for the subcomponents used in modern devices. The Mil/Aero market has very different environmental requirements with aggressive conditions such as sand/dust, salt fog, and even continuous operation in 100% humidity. These conditions have historically led to the use of robust, … [Read more...]
No NAB? No Problem. 12G-SDI Products and Support.
If this were a typical April, and if you are in the broadcast industry, chances are you would be at the NAB Show in Las Vegas. By day you would be checking out the latest broadcast products, solutions, equipment and technology. And by night, well, I don’t even want to think about what you might be doing at night, so I’ll stick to the daytime. Unfortunately this is not a typical April. In fact, it’s about the most atypical April I’ve ever seen. But since you can’t go to the NAB Show in Vegas, … [Read more...]
Samtec Technology Centers Enable Complete System Optimization from Silicon-to-Silicon™
Integration Leads to Innovation Do you remember Magic Eye books from the 1990s? Each page featured a different autostereogram that brought a 3D image to life by staring at a 2D pattern. It was an eye-crossing exercise to see the “magic.” Similarly, Samtec’s Technology Centers are more than meets the eye, and we want to help you see the “magic” without the weird eye-crossing thing. Our Technology Centers are not so much physical locations as they are actual industry-leading experts. … [Read more...]
OCP 2020 and OFC 2020 Updates from Samtec
In a recent blog article, we mentioned that the global electronics trade show industry has been directly affected by COVID-19, the novel coronavirus. While all hoped the effect would be temporary, that does not appear to be the case. In recent days, the OCP Global Summit has been canceled. A number of coronavirus cases have broken out in Santa Clara County, CA. Additionally, Samtec will not be exhibiting at OFC 2020 in San Diego. A small team of Samtec technical experts will meet with … [Read more...]
