New Connector Search Gives You A Mated Connector Set In Seconds
A Good Problem? Samtec has more ways to stack two or more boards together than any other connector company. Our manufacturing process allows us to position the plastic body on the terminal pin in increments of .005” (0.13 mm) on standard dual-body stacking connectors and on standard terminal strips (“headers”). Designers can create standard part numbers for very precise, non-industry-standard-board stacking heights. The good news is we have literally millions of connector … [Read more...]
A Student’s Perspective – Smart Cities, Smart Grids and Smart Factories
Smart cities, grids and factories are exciting and rapidly innovative industries in today’s world.

It’s all driven by a Xilinx ® Versal™ Premium GTM transceiver. The Versal Premium ACAP allows vendors to position their … [Read more...]
Connectors for Patient Care Applications
The needs of the medical profession to provide patient care go beyond the safe conditions of the operating room and the hospital. Many patients are cared for in other environments – doctors’ offices, health centers and increasingly, in the home. This is especially true for patients who require long-term care, and the technology that they need faces the challenge of being used far from the confines of the hospital. This is not a new trend. For many years, healthcare professionals have made … [Read more...]
