Right angle SEARAY sockets

16 September 2009 Interconnection

Samtec has expanded its SEARAY high-density open pin field interconnect family with a new line of right angle sockets for perpendicular and high-speed micro backplane applications.

The new sockets (SEAF-RA series) have a 1,27 x 1,27 mm grid array for maximum grounding and routing flexibility and are optimised to reduce skew and impedance mismatch. They feature Samtec’s rugged Edge Rate contacts which are designed for enhanced signal integrity, reduced broadside coupling and crosstalk, and high cycles.

SEARAY right angle sockets are currently available in four-row (up to 200 contacts) and six-row (up to 300 contacts) configurations. Eight-row (up to 400 contacts) and 10-row designs (up to 500 contacts) along with a right angle terminal (SEAM-RA series) are in the final stages of development.

This system mates with SEARAY surface mount terminals (SEAM series), which has optional guide posts for blind mating, and a choice of tin-lead or lead-free solder charged termination. SEARAY surface mount systems with up to 500 single-ended or 125 differential I/Os, coax cable assemblies with 180 or 240 I/Os, and high density flex jumpers are also available.
