Lever-actuated spring pin socket for BGA676 packages
A new BGA socket called the CBT-BGA-6087 features a contactor in the form of a stamped spring pin with 19-gm actuation force per ball and a cycle life of 125,000 insertions. The self-inductance of the contactor is 0.93 nH, insertion loss < 1 dB at 14.1 GHz, and contact resistance is
Clamshell spring pin socket handles SAW filters
A new LGA socket addresses high-performance requirements for custom pitch devices – CBT-LGA-5017. The contactor is a stamped spring pin with 14.5-gm actuation force per pin and cycle life of 100,000 insertions. The self-inductance of the contactor is 0.98 nH, insertion loss is below 1 dB at 31.7 GHz and capacitance is 0.067 pF. The […]
Input-protected, low-noise amplifiers handle 1-W CW inputs
Pasternack has released a new line of input-protected low-noise amplifiers (LNA’s) with no damage up to +30 dBm CW input power that are ideal for radar systems, EW applications, military/microwave radios, wireless and satellite communications and test instrumentation. Pasternack’s new line of input-protected low-noise amplifiers consists of 12 different models that cover a broad range of frequency […]
Stress & Strain, Part 1: Fundamental principles
The mechanical strain induced on electronic components due to mechanical and thermal stress is an important aspect of their performance consistency and limitations; stress is also used to enable some materials provide critical electronic functions. Although electronic systems and circuits invoke intangibles such as voltages, currents, power, EM fields, and Maxwell’s equations — to cite […]
Choosing the right MEMS microphone interface for your project
by Bruce Rose, CUI Inc. Micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) microphones have been steadily increasing their market share, driven by the surge in popularity of voice-controlled electronics with applications like voice-enabled navigation devices and digital home assistants. But what are the different types of MEMS microphone electrical interfaces available and how do you apply them to your […]
Sockets handle 25-pin BGA packages little loss, minimal increase in PCB
A new high-performance socket handles 0.4-mm-pitch BGA 25-pin devices. The CG-BGA-5030 socket is designed for the 2.125×2.225-mm package size and operates at a bandwidth up to 30 GHz with less than 1 dB of insertion loss. The socket is designed with an easy open clamshell lid with an integrated compression mechanism. The contact resistance is […]
Lowest-profile 3216-footprint tantalum capacitor is just 0.5-mm high
AVX Corporation has extended its TACmicrochip Series with the lowest-profile 3216-footprint tantalum capacitor currently available on the market. Measuring just 0.5mm high, the first new “I” case capacitor (EIA Metric 3216-05) is rated for 10μF and 6.3V, but will be followed by future code releases to further extend the offering. The full line of TACmicrochip […]
