Actum Electronics will be showcasing Erni’s compact mini-backplanes which combine press-fit technology with the popular SMC connector family. With an appropriate design layout, these fine-pitch connectors can reliably transmit signals with data rates of more than 1 Gbps. As well as SMT versions (straight and angled), straight male connectors are available with press-fit technology.
knitter-switch’s MZME-ESD series of toggle switches is designed specifically for use in applications requiring ESD protection and resistance to moisture. The UL-listed product family is ESD resistant to 8 kV, rated to IP67 and offers a lifetime of 30 000 cycles. The switches feature gold-plated contacts for the reliable switching of even the smallest currents, although the switch is rated to 20 V a.c. at 0,4 VA.
