Continuous improvements in surface mount technology are allowing increasingly higher-frequency components to be mounted on printed circuit boards. More and more economical devices are becoming available for high-frequency applications, such as Mini-SMP connectors up to 65 GHz.
Rosenberger provides a wide range of RF surface mount coaxial connectors (SMCC) in various standard interfaces:
* Coaxial series: SMP, Mini-SMP, MCX, SMA, QMA or new Flexible Microstrip Connectors for misalignment compensation with repeatable electrical characteristics.
* FAKRA-RF automotive connectors.
* High-precision test and measurement connectors.
Rosenberger's SMCC products convert signals from coaxial to planar waveguide mode inside the connector via an innovative miniature transition. This design leads to excellent return loss, isolation performance, a low dispersion transmission characteristic and optimised performance, such that MCX connectors can operate up to 12 GHz, although specified to 6 GHz.
With an SMCC, the footprint has an important influence on the electrical performance, particularly at higher frequencies. Rosenberger provides customers with recommended footprints optimised to customer-specific applications.
These connectors are supplied in tape and reel packaging (blister tapes) for automatic placement, and are available in male and female types, straight and right-angle versions.
