Floating interface system
14 November 2012
Interconnection
Samtec’s newly released AFI floating interface system is designed to offer a high degree of misalignment compensation for military, aerospace, cable modem termination systems, Internet and telecommunication applications, as well as being a solution to overcome packaging design issues.
The AFI series is a three-piece system that allows for maximum misalignment compensation of up to 0,80 mm radial and 1,00 mm axial float. The floating bullet adaptor creates a flexible link between two AFI jacks in PCB stacking or motherboard expansion applications. This system is designed for DC to 6 GHz performance with 50 Ω impedance.
The PCB mounted jack features mixed technology termination for increased stability on the board, as well as cost-effective gold flash plating. The bullet adaptor plug is available in a standard 9,14 mm length.
Due to the 1,00 mm axial float, standard stack height for the system ranges from 27,8 mm fully mated to 28,8 mm when floating. Additional plating options are available.
