Samtec Rewrites the VITA 42 Story
Everyone loves a good book. From Shakespearean classics to more modern-day masterpieces, a solid story can leave a lasting impression. While the VITA family of standards isn't necessarily a book, it does have a rich history with a large impact. As we learned in a previous blog, standards are always progressing, and, in this case, so is VITA 42. What does that mean to the connector industry, and how has VITA 42 changed with Samtec? To get a solid grasp on these questions and more, let's … [Read more...]

Samtec Technical Experts and Panelists Participate in Upcoming Webinars
Summer is here. The kids are out of school. Families are taking well-deserved holidays and vacations or even enjoying local staycations. Even though it's summer, design engineers still need to move their new projects along. Additionally, designers need to keep their skills sharp and learn about the latest tools. Some upcoming webinars will no doubt help the engineering community stay updated on FPGA SoMs, expansion buses and associated interconnects, and the latest on PCI Express® … [Read more...]
Samtec and Arrow Partner on New Intel® Agilex™ 5 E-series SoC Dev Kit
"Intelligent edge." That is a new term for many. Basically it refers to the the increased computational capabilities at the edge of the communications networks. Typically, heavy compute loads are executed in data centers or on supercomputers. As the "intelligent edge" ramps up performance, those calculations are enabled by embedded devices using multicore CPUs, FPGAs, SoCs, and the like. Intelliegent edge and embedded computing applications combine faster speeds with lower power … [Read more...]
Samtec Releases New Evaluation and Development Kits
Readers of the Samtec blog know that the demand for data keeps increasing. Rightly, data center applications may be the first to enter one's mind. However, faster speeds are required in AI/ML, Mil/Aero, Automotive, Medical, Instrumentation, and many other applications as well. Engineers developing new products at higher speeds need reassurance that the components they select work as advertised. Samtec-designed Evaluation and Development Kits simplify the interconnect design process and reduce … [Read more...]
