Online Tool Configures Ultra High Density Connectors

For configuring the company's Ultra High Density (UHD) interconnects for use in bench-top test systems, instrument probe cables, parallel data links, production floor equipment, and automated test equipment, the UHD Builder is available online at the company's website. The tool enables users to build assemblies by inputting part numbers and also provides datasheets for most of the available interconnects. The UHD interconnects provide an integrated system of board mount headers and ganged assemblies that promise shorter test setups, fewer calibrations and smaller boards, enable lower loss, lower skew, better impedance control, and shorter board trace lengths.
