High-speed card sockets
3 March 2010
Interconnection
Samtec’s new Edge Card Sockets with signal integrity optimised Edge Rate contacts are designed for high-speed micro board-to-board and micro backplane applications, offering advanced performance in a one-piece, direct card-to-board design.
The 0,8 mm pitch High Speed Edge Card sockets (HSEC8 series) are available in vertical, edge mount and right angle designs for perpendicular (90°) and coplanar applications with up to 60 contacts per row. The system draws on the electrical performance of Edge Rate contacts which are optimised for signal integrity performance and reduced crosstalk to achieve performance ratings to 8 GHz (SE) and 10,5 GHz (DP) at -3 dB insertion loss.
The sockets accept standard 1,60 mm PCB cards and also mate with Samtec’s High Speed 100 Twinax Edge Card Cable Assembly (EEDP series) and High Speed Flex Data Links (HSF8 series). Optional rugged board locks and cable latches as well as application specific guide rails are also available.
