PCB stacking connectors for millimetre-wave

1 July 2015 Interconnection

Southwest Microwave announced the introduction of a new line of SuperMini connectors for board-to-board stacking applications up to the millimetre-wave RF range of 67 GHz.

The blind-mate connectors maximise electrical performance of the transmission path between connector and circuit while accommodating axial misalignment of up to 0,25 mm and radial misalignment of ±5° via unique bullet and PCB receptacle (jack) designs. With an array of available bullets that enable board-to-board spacing as close as 3 mm, this solution assures transmission line dependability for tightly stacked PCBs.

Designed to optimise matching to circuit for surface and through-hole PCB mounting applications, the connectors are available in smooth bore or detent style vertical and end launch jack configurations for stripline, microstrip and grounded co-planar circuit launch transitions. Additionally, smooth bore and detent style 4-hole flange jack to 2,92 mm (K) jack adaptors are available.

The manufacturer can also supply complete direct solder cable assemblies supporting connectors of varying frequencies to simplify high-performance, push-on test connection to receptacles.
