As consumers, wireless technology is often taken for granted. How difficult would everyday life be without it? Can I open my garage door today? How do I turn on my Smart TV? Where are my social networks? Most of our daily wireless connections - from Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to cellular, SatNav and GPS - use carrier frequencies below ~6 GHz. Typical 50 ohm SMA connectors and cable assemblies (or similar) usually work in these types of applications. What about newer applications like 5G and … [Read more...]
Samtec and Achronix Technologists Detail 112 Gbps PAM4 FPGA Implementation
Readers of the Samtec blog know we are always talking about next-gen speed. Current channels rates are running at 56 Gbps PAM4.

Samtec Dives In the Deep End with PICMG
Weird weather is one the things making 2020 memorable. As I look out my home office window (WFH - yet another 2020 "thing"!), it feels like mid-summer in late September. In some places like Key West or Palm Springs, that is normal. In Pennsylvania, it is not. My kids asked if we could go swimming. Umm, no. In any case, swimming on a hot day always accomplishes a purpose. Diving in to a pool, lake to ocean always is refreshing and relaxing. At least for me. In business, decisions … [Read more...]
