Flexible RF board interface system
6 August 2008
Interconnection
Standard Samtec high density and high speed connectors with high signal and ground pin counts can often be combined with MMCX-scale or other RF connectors to provide enhanced board-to-board flexibility and functionality.
High speed connectors (QMS/QFS Q2 Series) feature one or two RF connectors per end with up to 156 single-ended or 48 signal pairs per connector on 0,635 mm pitch with an internal ground plane. High density connectors on 2 mm pitch (ESRF/ETRF Series) feature up to 80 signal/ground pins and six RF connectors as standard.
A variety of other standard Samtec connectors can be modified to include MMCX-scale, QMA, SMC, UHF and 1.0/2.3 Mini UHF connectors. These include a range from commodity 2,54 mm pitch shrouded headers to high density open pin field arrays on 1,27 mm pitch grid. Custom RF/micro-coax cable combinations are also available.
