A relentless increase in data rates is turning the PCB connector landscape upside down. And the clean transmission of signals via PCB traces is becoming more critical while data speeds in servers, ...

Sometimes when you’re making a PCB that you plan on programming over USB, but you only plan on plugging in a couple of times, it would be nice to make that connection without another BOM item. Over on ...

Available in up to 10 positions, the 810 Series horizontal SMT spring-loaded connectors suit low-profile interconnections parallel to the PCB surface. The 0.045-in. midstroke version allows for up to ...

Samtec has created a line of RF connectors that mount to the edge of PCB by bolting rather than soldering. They measure only 9.5mm from side-to-side where they sit on the PCB and are under 8mm from ...

There are hundreds of standards relevant to mating interfaces, but which connector is best suited? Regular travellers know that a suitable adaptor is a 'must have' companion; it's an everyday example ...

Most printed-board connectors are either a one-piece receptacle or a two-piece plug and jack. With receptacle (edge) connectors, the printed-circuit board foils extend to an edge of the board and are ...

Hirose has announced a two-piece flexi-to-PCB connector aimed at automotive applications. Called TB4 , it can withstand up to 125°C “which satisfies automotive requirements that allow the connector to ...

These new sockets and headers are an excellent choice for parallel board-to-board or board-to-component applications where vertical board stacking is not an option, such as in LED lighting systems ...
