Communication. There are hundreds of books about the various types, styles and strategies. You can earn degrees in the study of it. It’s a life skill everyone must learn, and there is a constant pursuit for ways to more effectively communicate. The PCI Express® standard can help with effective communication, but just for electronic devices instead of people - you'll still need to buy that book. This standard creates a connection for high bandwidth communication between a PCI Express® device … [Read more...]

The Most Popular Connector Products: Samtec’s Top 10 in 2021
1. SEAM, SEAF, our popular SEARAY™ line. SEARAY is a high density, high speed, 1.27 mm grid array system. It’s popular because the open pin field gives designers tons of pcb routing and grounding flexibility. 2. FTSH, CLP. These are basic 1.27 mm pitch socket and terminal strips. They are a popular connector system because of the variety of options in the product line, including through-hole and SMT terminations, vertical and right angle designs, and a variety of plating options, … [Read more...]
Samtec Releases New SOSA™ Aligned Interconnect Solutions Guide
Performance. Interoperability. Improved SWAP-C. These design trends are redefining mil/aero and rugged embedded systems for users, suppliers, prime contractors and more. The SOSA Consortium is one of many standards bodies addressing these needs. The new SOSA Technical Standard 1.0 defines a modular architecture for composing sensors with COMMS, EO/IR, EW, Radar, and SIGINT modalities. Rather than defining an entirely new system, this Standard defines a set of logical modules that group … [Read more...]
The Most Popular Connector Products: Samtec’s Top 10
I love most "Top 10" lists. This morning I came across an article in Rolling Stone that lists the highest paid musicians of 2021. The list surprised me because over half of the musicians were from previous generations, and they earned big money in 2021 because they sold the rights to their songs. Here's the list of the 10 Highest-Paid Musicians. Those with a double asterisk (**) earned most of the money by selling the rights to their songs: 1. Bruce Springsteen ($590 million) ** 2. … [Read more...]

We like to find standards that complement the product roadmap and … [Read more...]
Xilinx Kria™ Adaptive SoMs Feature Samtec AcceleRate® HD Slim Body Arrays
Rapidly-growing AI system capabilities are driving new product architectures that demand increased speeds, bandwidths, frequencies and densities. Scalability and configurability are a must. In embedded applications, many AI systems leverage the ease of design and economies of scale of systems-on-modules (SoMs). System-on-modules are an example of make or buy system design. A SoM includes the system compute engine (MCU, FPGA, GPU, etc.) as well as general support circuitry like DRAM, power and … [Read more...]

The demo also includes a Samtec SI Evaluation Kit for the SEARAY™ high-density array products. SEARAY is a 1.27 mm pitch array connector system that allows maximum routing and … [Read more...]
Vehicle Electrification: The Road Ahead
Ever since I was a little girl I've loved attending antique car shows with my dad. Classic cars have always fascinated me. The design styles and build trends drew me in. As I go back down memory lane, my dad's 1976 red Corvette Stingray stands out in my head. My dad saved up his money for almost a decade. He finally purchased his dream car when I was a teenager. Long story short, my father does not cruise in his Corvette anymore. Why? He's taken it out 3 times, and you've guessed it - all 3 … [Read more...]
Our Most Popular Connectors For Medical Applications
When they hear the phrase connectors for medical applications, most electronics types think of some type of I/O interconnect to accommodate the cable interfaces on handheld devices. Push-pull cable products, circular cable assemblies, and wire-to-board solder cup headers and sockets usually come to mind. The medical electronics industry is one of Samtec’s largest customer segments. But unlike most other suppliers, Samtec’s most popular connectors for medical applications are all high data … [Read more...]
High-Performance Interconnect for Robotics Applications
Robotics are everywhere, or so it seems. Robot combat, STEM outreach, robotic arms and advanced surgical devices are but a few applications that touch our everyday life. As a student, I was the President of the Santa Barbara City College Robotics Club and a FIRST Robotics competitor. These early experiences and opportunities have turned robotics into a personal passion As the world develops technologically, robots are used in more and more everyday applications. As an example, autonomous … [Read more...]
