The HSEC8 series, a high-speed edge card socket on .8 mm pitch, is our most popular edge card connector, and one of our biggest selling products series. New Signal, Power Card Edge Connector A recently released option on the HSEC8 is a signal, power card edge combo connector. The HSEC8-PV is available with one or two banks of power pins. Each bank contains two power pins, and each bank is rated up to 60 amps. Through-hole tails on the power pins are designed for .062” (1.60 mm) and .093” … [Read more...]
Top 10 Most Popular Connector Blogs Of 2018
I like end-of-the-year top 10 lists. I just read the top 10 movies of 2018 (at the box office) and five of them were Marvel movies. Retrievers are the perenniel #1 most popular breed of dog. As a volleyball junkie here's my top VB play of the year (although I am a bit biased, Kenzie (the player who makes this remarkable save) played club ball with my daughter). We had record blog readership this year; "Connectors 101" and DesignCon were the most popular topics, but the topics are varied. Here … [Read more...]
Advantages of Power / Signal Combo Connectors
A popular interconnect solution, especially with our customers in the industrial sector, is power / signal combination (“combo”) connectors. Of course these are mated connector sets that incorporate both signal and power pins in the same connector system. Designers use these power / signal combo connectors for a variety of reasons, including: It’s usually less expensive to purchase, procure, and inventory two connectors instead of four or more.It’s easier to process two … [Read more...]
Samtec Releases New FireFly™ Video
We talk about FireFly™ a lot around here, and why not? With the industry’s leading miniature footprint enabling maximum signal density and SI over longer distances, we assume you want to hear about it. FireFly™ Micro Flyover System™ provides high-performance versatility by taking the data connection “off board” for higher data rates up to 28 Gbps per lane with a path to 112 Gbps PAM4. In addition, the miniature footprint allows for higher density and closer proximity to the IC. The results … [Read more...]

Shielded Interconnects For Industrial Applications
Samtec continues to expand its line of shielded interconnects, both board-to-board and cable-to-board systems. These are used in a variety of industries and applications, one being industrial equipment. Shielded interconnects are a good thing because EMI is a four-letter word for most designers. I do and don't mean that literally, although I do know there are three types of people in this world: those who can count and those who can't. Anyway, not to be Captain Obvious, but most … [Read more...]
Micro Rugged Interconnect Solutions
One of Samtec's most popular product niches is Micro / Rugged Interconnects. Designers don’t usually think of micro pitch connectors as being rugged, as being able to handle high mating cycles, or as having robust mechanical strength on the PCB, or with strong retention of mated connector sets. Samtec has a complete line of micro rugged products that can do all of the above. Our micro rugged products are just that — micro, and rugged. The following is a quick overview of our most popular … [Read more...]

Samtec “Focuses” on Embedded Vision Systems
Embedded vision systems are commonplace in everyday applications. As an example, ADAS systems in modern automobiles increase driver and passenger safety. In another application, visual inspection systems reduce manufacturing errors on the production line. Additionally, drones are revolutionizing data collection for consumers, researchers and enterprises alike. Embedded vision system components continue to advance in complexity. However, they all need connecting at the system level. … [Read more...]
