EMI filtered audio connectors

28 October 2009 Interconnection

Spectrum Control has added a new design to its standard MIL-DTL-55116 capacitive filtered audio connectors. The new design offers ESD (electrostatic discharge) protection up to 8 kV direct discharge and 15 kV air discharge.

Custom designs addressing other discharge requirements are also available. These EMI filtered/ESD protected connectors are designed for aviation, communication and security applications where an electronic system using the audio connector might be exposed to ESD environments.

The connectors have a capacitance value range of 10 pF to 1 μF and are available in C and Pi circuit configurations. They are waterproof and polarised, are offered in plugs and receptacles and can be designed for special/selectively loaded EMI filtering. Spectrum’s custom-filtered audio connectors meet all the requirements of MIL-STD-810F including sand and dust, salt, fog, high altitude operation, fungus resistance and immersion to 20 metres.
