The roll-out of 5G continues despite COVID-19. 5G system development moves on for any number of applications. These include Test and Measurement, Remote Radio Heads (RRHs) and Active Antenna Systems (AAS), Network Equipment and more. The demand for data means design engineers need to quicken time to market. Modular system design provides peace of mind and commonalities from development to production for design-intensive 5G applications. Avnet XRF16™ RFSoC System-on-Module The … [Read more...]
Samtec to Exhibit at OCP Virtual Summit
The global coronavirus pandemic continues to spread. Thankfully, parts of normal life are returning. Employees are slowly going back to work. State parks are opening. Sports leagues like the Budesliga and the NFL are ramping up activities. Light is (finally?) at the end of the COVID-19 tunnel. However, new "normals" may be regular "normals". Trade shows have been "normal" to business. Will they continue to be so? Some of us hope so. In the mean time, many large trade show events … [Read more...]
Samtec, Mouser and Electronic Design Partner on New 5G Webinar
5G is coming! 5G is coming! Is 5G coming? The first two phrases literally described the global 5G rollout at the beginning of 2020. Handset manufacturers, equipment providers, mobile carriers and industry analysts anticipated a strong year. Is 5G still coming? Well, that depends. Like all parts of life, the 5G rollout has been upended by the unfortunate coronavirus pandemic. Sadly, conspiracy theories linking the virus to mobile towers led to acts of arson. Despite the … [Read more...]
Salt Fog Resistant Optical Modules For Mil/Aero
Data centers drive volume use for modern optical transceivers. These have favorable conditions for the optics, with low humidity and tightly controlled temperatures, which in turn has enabled a low-cost design approach for the subcomponents used in modern devices. The Mil/Aero market has very different environmental requirements with aggressive conditions such as sand/dust, salt fog and even continuous operation in 100% humidity. These conditions have historically led to the use of the … [Read more...]
Samtec Launches gEEk® spEEk Webinar Series
Given the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, it appears the WFH “trend” may become permanent. Indirectly, or maybe directly, the present situation has provided us with yet another way to engage with design engineers and SI experts globally. At home, video streaming is growing exponentially. Professionally, webinars abound on many topics. So, without further ado . . . Samtec is pleased to launch gEEk® spEEk! What is gEEk® spEEk? DesignCon attendees typically look forward every year to … [Read more...]
Samtec Releases Two New Chalk Talk Webinars
Telecommuting. Mobile work. Remote work. Flexible work. Work from home (WFH). They all mean the same thing. What do all of these have to do with Chalk Talks? Who would have guessed so many would WFH? The global COVID-19 outbreak is the reason. So, staying connected is a must. The demand for data hasn't stopped, yet. That requires continued investment both on the edge and in the data center. More data means more speed. How is Samtec responding? With new Chalk Talks, of course! 0 to … [Read more...]
Standards Update: QSFP-DD800 MSA and VITA 57.X
What do the QSFP-DD800 MSA and VITA 57 have in common? Fair question. One focuses on defining the next-gen pluggable form factors while the other complements FPGA mezzanine applications. So what is the link? Samtec, of course! Samtec participates in many Industry Standards to develop commonality is specific applications. QSFP-DD800 and VITA 57 are but two examples. QSFP-DD800 MSA: New HW Spec QSFP28. QSFP-DD. QSFP-DD800. It seems the Multi Source Agreements (MSAs) for Quad Small … [Read more...]
A Cable Backplane Solution For 112 Gbps PAM4 Architecture
Scott McMorrow, CTO, Samtec Signal Integrity Group, walks us through a live demonstration of a cable backplane and mid-board cable system, both utilizing Samtec Flyover® . Samtec Flyover is most commonly used in mid-board applications, with the cable assembly connector placed close to the chip and direct the signal to the front panel through the cable. Cable Backplane and Mid-Board Applications Flyover also allows designers to go from one board to another as a flexible backplane … [Read more...]
Samtec Technology Centers Enable Complete System Optimization from Silicon-to-Silicon™
Integration Leads to Innovation Do you remember Magic Eye books from the 1990s? Each page featured a different autostereogram that brought a 3D image to life by staring at a 2D pattern. It was an eye-crossing exercise to see the “magic.” Similarly, Samtec’s Technology Centers are more than meets the eye, and we want to help you see the “magic” without the weird eye-crossing thing. Our Technology Centers are not so much physical locations as they are actual industry-leading experts. … [Read more...]
Optimizing 112 Gbps PAM4 Interconnect Design Leveraging ANSYS® HFSS™
It seems like everyone is thinking about the global coronavirus scare, and rightfully so. Workers, students and those most as risk are staying home. What are people doing at home? They are probably binge-watching their favorite video streaming service. It appears not even COVID-19 can slow consumers' insatiable demand for data. This puts constant pressure on internet providers, equipment vendors and components suppliers to develop higher-performance networks. Samtec is a global leader in … [Read more...]
