1GHz connectors feature integral ground plane
A new range of high-performance interconnects, featuring an integral ground plane to support applications up to 1GHz, has been added by Delton Roxburgh.
After soldering, the lock provides additional mechanical strength.
For CompactFlash designs, the CFT headers mate with CFS series sockets, offering 50 hot-pluggable pins in polarisation configurations that conform to CompactFlash specifications.
Headers accept a 50.8mm (2in) card length and either 0.8 or 1.6mm boards.
PCMCIA applications are met by 68-pin PCMT headers mating with PCMS sockets, both providing 68-pins in hot-pluggable configurations.
1, 2 and 3in card lengths are accepted by the header, which accepts 0.8 or 1.6mm boards.
Both types of header are offered for right-angle through-hole mounting, and are available from Deltron Roxburgh in standard or elevated profiles.
The CFT series offers additional surface mount options.
