56. 112. 224. SI/PI! For a lot of Americans, that sounds like the pre-snap play call or audible of a quarterback in North American-style football games. After watching football Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, that's where my brain is as well. However, for those of us in the high-speed connectivity industry, those numbers refer to the speed markers in channel data rates we work with everyday. An embedded engineer implementing a 56 Gbps PAM4 transceiver design. A mechanical engineer … [Read more...]

Samtec Exhibits at AI Hardware & Edge AI Summit, EuMW 2023
Ahh . . . September. It reminds us of the the last bits of summer, kids going back to school and football. Of course, at Samtec we love global football and the North American kind well. In case someone asks, I am a HUGE fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers. In the high-tech world, trade show season is ramping up. Samtec will be exhibiting at two major shows this month. One is the AI Hardware & Edge AI Summit in Santa Clara, CA. The second tradeshow is the European Microwave Week (EuMW) in … [Read more...]
Why Use Flyover Cable Systems?
Samtec’s Flyover® cable systems are designed to get signals off the PCB in order to improve signal integrity, increase design flexibility, and optimize thermal performance. These products route high-speed signals through low-loss, low-skew twinax cable. They operate across distances that can be up to several feet long while removing the need for clock data recovery circuits (CDRs) or retimers. In a recently published white paper, Samtec Senior Field Applications Engineer, Anthony Fellbaum, … [Read more...]
Validating the Performance of Miniature Array Connectors
Small, complex, and portable applications (in industries such as military/aerospace and medical) require miniaturized, reliable interconnects. As traditional surface-mount and through-hole interconnects reach their limits in terms of density and the number of signals that can effectively be used, many product designers are implementing high I/O array styles of interconnects. In a new white paper from Samtec, “Improved Solder Joint Integrity for High-Density Interconnect Applications,” the … [Read more...]
New High-Speed Cable Guide
Who doesn’t love a care package? Open a box from someone you know and find a surprise inside. In college, my aunt used to send me the best sugar cookies – very helpful for enticing friends to study with you. Similar to a care package from someone you know, Samtec just released a new High-Speed Cable Design Guide full of new products, technologies and roadmap items (sorry, no cookies this time). The Guide highlights Samtec’s innovation for next generation architectures – Flyover®, HDR, … [Read more...]
Samtec High-Speed Interconnect Enable New Artix and Kintex UltraScale+ SoMs
"Here we go again!" Yes, it is another blog on FPGA-based system-on-modules (SoMs). Why, you, dear reader, may wonder? Simply, embedded computing engineers love the versatility, flexibility and scalability that SoMs offer in system architecture design. Secondly, so many SoMs use Samtec high-speed board-to-boardconnectors. Here we go again, indeed! ;) UltraSOM! - New Artix UltraScale+SoM Family Embedded computing is global in nature, but there seems to be a lot of SoM design and FPGA … [Read more...]
