New Micro Power Connectors: Cable Assembly and Board-to-Board Systems
Mountain Dew to Diet Mountain Dew. M&M’s to Peanut M&M’s. Clorox Bleach to Clorox Wipes. Coors to Coors Light. These are a few well-known and successful brand extensions in the consumer product world. I would like to think that the new connector brand extension I’m going to tell you about will also become a well-known global household name. But if not, you may still be very interested in learning about a new micro power cable assembly and board-to-board connector options … [Read more...]
Practical Connector Characterization Techniques: SIJ Panel Discussion
Our friends at Signal Integrity Journal recently hosted a one-hour panel discussion on Practical Connector Characterization Techniques. It was moderated by Eric Bogatin, University of Colorado in Boulder, the Technical Editor for Signal Integrity Journal, and a Teledyne LeCroy Fellow. Many papers are published about building models of interconnect structures such as connectors. But what is done in practice? This panel gathered industry leading suppliers of connector components and … [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...]

Samtec’s 56 Gbps PAM4 Product Demonstration Platform emulates real-world 56 Gbps PAM4 design challenges, which pairs bleeding edge silicon and interconnect solutions using real-world, optimized design practices. This platform showcases several of Samtec’s interconnect solutions, but this video focuses on the Samtec Bulls Eye® test point system, … [Read more...]
New Products, Technologies At electronica China
We all know the widespread havoc that Covid-19 wreaked in 2020. While the electronics industry in general, and connectors in particular, took an initial hit, the industry rebounded in the second half of 2020 and is rolling into 2021. Travel came to an almost stand-still in 2020, and the industry was quick to respond by converting in-person exhibitions, conferences, and shows to virtual events. In the U.S., many conferences are returning to live venues this summer. China has hosted several … [Read more...]
Silver Creek Dragons Foundation, Samtec Cares Partner to Deliver PCs to Community
A couple of weeks ago, associates in New Albany probably noticed a wall of PCs and related equipment in the MIS Help-Desk area, and then later in the Break Room. If you were in either room, it was difficult to not see them. Their presence raised a lot of questions, including why are they here, and what are we going to do with them? The Silver Creek Dragons Foundation (SCDF) and Samtec Cares recently partnered to serve our community by providing 54 refurbished computers to ten local … [Read more...]
New High Speed Connector System: 56 Gbps PAM4 SI Evaluation Demonstration
Here's a live product demonstration of a new high speed connector system which achieves excellent SI results while running at 56 Gbps PAM4. Jean-Remy Bonnefoy, Systems Engineer at Samtec, explains how Samtec partnered with Credo for this active product demonstration. Credo’s mixed signal 56 Gbps PAM4 Bald Eagle 2 silicon generates two bi-directional channels of QPRBS-31 signal data at 56 Gbps PAM4. The differential signals travel through 2" of traces on a MEG4 PCB, to a Samtec … [Read more...]
