Abstract:
A tuning body to be inserted into an electrical connector includes a base end and a plurality of ribs extending from the base end. The plurality of ribs is parallel or substantially parallel with respect to each other and is arranged to fit between electrical contacts of the electrical connector when the tuning body is inserted into the electrical connector. The electrical connector includes a first side wall, a second side wall, a first connector body arranged between the first side wall and the second side wall, and a second connector body arranged between the first side wall and second the second side wall. The second connector body is arranged a predetermined distance apart from the first connector body, and the electrical contacts of the electrical connector extend between the first connector body and the second connector body.
Abstract:
An interconnect system including a host circuit board; an IC package connected to the host circuit board and including a first connector, an IC circuit board, and an IC die; and a transceiver arranged to mate with the first connector so that at least some electrical signals transmitted to and from the IC die are transmitted only on or through the IC circuit board.
Abstract:
An electrical contact including a head, a tail including an opposing pair of major surfaces and a hole, a body connected at one end thereof to the head and at another end thereof to the tail, a peg arranged adjacent to the hole and to extend perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to one of the opposing pair of major surfaces and including at least one beveled side, and a solder member attached to the tail such that the peg creates and fits in a protrusion in a surface of the solder member when the solder member is attached to the tail, such that a portion of the solder member extends into the hole, and such that the solder member engages the at least one beveled side of the peg.
Abstract:
An orthogonal electrical connector system includes vertical electrical connectors that are configured to e mated to each other so as to place respective pluralities of first and second substrates that are oriented orthogonal to each other in data communication with each other through the mated electrical connectors. Other connector systems are also disclosed.
Abstract:
An interconnect system includes a first circuit board (18), first (14) and second (18a) connectors connected to the first circuit board (18), and a transceiver (15) including an optical engine (15a) and arranged to receive and transmit electrical and optical signals through a cable (16), to convert optical signals received from the cable (16) into electrical signals, and to convert electrical signals received from the first connector (14) into optical signals to be transmitted through the cable (16). The transceiver (15) is arranged to mate with the first (14) and second (18a) connectors so that at least some converted electrical signals are transmitted to the first connector (14) and so that at least some electrical signals received from the cable (16) are transmitted to the second connector (18a).
Abstract:
An electrical connector includes a first row of contacts, a second row of contacts, a first ground plane, a second ground plane, each extending in a first direction. The first row of contacts is located closer to the first ground plane than any other ground plane in the electrical connector. The second row of contacts is located closer to the second ground plane than any other ground plane in the electrical connector. The first row of contacts, the second row of contacts, the first ground plane, and the second ground plane oppose each other such that the first row of contacts, the second row of contacts, the first ground plane, and the second ground plane are arranged with respect to each other in a second direction perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the first direction.
