The Best Connector Blogs Of 2023
I enjoy reading summary lists of the year that's ending. I'm talking about lists like the top news events, the most successful movies and songs, and famous people who died. And it goes without saying that everybody wants to read the list of Samtec's best connector blogs ... This list of Samtec's 2023 best connector blogs is not based on readership, because many of our most-read blogs were published before 2023. They were selected because of their relevance to customer needs, or because they … [Read more...]

New CXL Over Fiber Solution
A live product demonstration of CXL over fiber garnered a lot of attention at SC23. Other popular demos included a 224 Gbps PAM4 solution, and a proof-of-concept 128 GT/s (PCIe® 7.0) high-speed cable system. CXL is based on the PCI Express specification physical and electrical interface. CXL enables cache coherency between the CPU and attached devices, such as accelerators, GPUs, or memory devices. Emerging storage and memory use cases demand high performance, low … [Read more...]
New Proof-of-Concept High-Speed Cable Solution Performs At 128 GT/s
The upcoming PCIe® 7.0 specification is intended to enable 128 GT/s data rates. It continues PCIe’s trend of double speeds every generation. According to PCI-SIG, "PCIe 7.0 technology is targeted to be a scalable interconnect solution for data-intensive markets like Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning, Data Center, HPC, Automotive, IoT, and Military/Aerospace."(1) PCIe 7.0 is targeted for release in 2025, and it probably won’t be in devices until 2027. But, at SC 23 in Denver, Samtec … [Read more...]

Manufacturing Variation: It’s Our Job To Find The Hidden Enemy
Manufacturing high-end electronics is difficult. Making a one-time sample for a demonstration or prototype can be challenging, but the real challenge is finding out how to make it consistently and in a profitable manner. That's what Aaron Tucker, Samtec's Director of Engineering - New Ventures (R&D), said during a recent presentation about the challenges of producing high-density, microminiature connectors. Most of his discussion focused on reducing manufacturing variability. I later … [Read more...]
