Following the recent introduction of Archer .8 (0.8mm pitch board-to-board connectors), Harwin has extended its range again with a 0.5mm pitch range. Its award-winning engineering design team developed this latest compact mezzanine connector in response to the increasing market feedback for even smaller and lighter solutions. Specifically designed for applications with limited available space, the Archer…
New shielding options available for Harwin’s Gecko Hi-Rel connectors
Harwin has introduced horizontal backshells for its Gecko-Screw-Lok (Gecko-SL) series of lightweight, high-reliability (Hi-Rel) connectors. These backshells ensure a fully EMI/RFI shielded connection for horizontal 1.25mm pitch board-to-cable connections. Previously, Gecko EMI/RFI shielding was only available on vertical board-to-cable orientations. This new development will be of real value to applications requiring EMI/RFI protection, but where there’s…
Harwin offers female contact for semi-rigid, coaxial cabling
Building on the program where the different elements of its 4mm-pitch Datamate Mix-Tek connectors (which can be sourced separately), Harwin now offers a new female contact option to its customer base. Like all Mix-Tek coax contacts, the M80-310 is designed for data carrying, with support for frequencies reaching up to 6GHz. This latest contact can be…
Rosenberger and STMicroelectronics develop high-speed contactless connector
STMicroelectronics, a global semiconductor provider, and Rosenberger, a manufacturer of impedance-controlled and optical connectivity solutions, announced their collaboration on a contactless connector for ultra-reliable, short-range, point-to-point full-duplex data exchanges in industrial and medical applications . Rosenberger’s innovative contactless connector, the RoProxCon, leverages ST’s 60GHz RF transceiver, the ST60A2, to deliver high-speed data transmission while providing immunity…
Harwin offers rear panel-mount cable connectors for its Hi-Rel series
To provide customers with greater choice and increase design flexibility, Harwin now offers rear panel-mount cable connectors for both of its 2mm-pitch Datamate and 1.25mm-pitch Gecko high-reliability (Hi-Rel) series. The new series will complement the company’s existing front panel-mount solutions, broadening the scope of how connector housings are attached to an enclosure or panel. The…
Harwin offers flexible, multi-directional spring contacts
Harwin has now expanded its range of spring contacts with the addition of two new versions. These surface-mount components are capable of supporting horizontal and vertical connection orientations, but come in smaller size formats than were previously available. The S1961-46R has a 3.55mm height, while the S1971-46R has a height of 4.55mm. The S1961-46R and S1971-46R offer current…
