Sockets for ICs, transistors, and other miniature components are essential pieces of electronic equipment. They provide easy access and reliable interconnections for even the most complex circuits. The 50-9518-11H is a socket used in high-frequency applications to provide the greatest signal quality and performance. This article will discuss the 50-9518-11H application field and working principle.

50-9518-11H Application Field

The 50-9518-11H is a Type-C unshielded surface mount socket. It is suitable for the application of prototype verification and small production of high-frequency circuits. The socket has an excellent performance in the field of ultra-high-speed frequencies, making it suitable for the development and manufacture of products such as 5G communication, satellite communication, vehicle networking, and more.

The 50-9518-11H is rated for frequencies up to 11GHz and can easily handle the volatile nature of high-frequency signals. In addition, the Type-C design increases the contacts density, providing superior signal stability and low loss performance.

50-9518-11H Working Principle

The 50-9518-11H sockets have a unique contact structure that makes it suitable for use in high-frequency applications. The socket\'s contacts consist of both copper and gold plated PTHs (plated through-hole). This combination creates excellent impedance matching and high shielding effect for the signal lines.

The contact point is shaped like a ledge, and its surface is filled with a gold-plated tin (GPT) alloy. This ensures stability during plugging and unplugging, and there is no need to clean the socket contacts. With the unique combination of copper and gold plated contacts, the contact resistance is minimized while signal loss due to impedance mismatch is eliminated.

The 50-9518-11H socket has a mechanism to protect the internal components from electrical shock. The socket is equipped with a self-locking latch system that prevents components from being inserted too deep, ensures uniform contact force, and reduce insertion force when the contact is made. In addition, the socket has protection from external shock with a spring-loaded collar that encloses the components and provides a secure fit.

Conclusion

The 50-9518-11H socket is designed to provide excellent performance and reliability in high-frequency applications. Its combination of copper and gold plated contacts creates excellent impedance matching and maximum shielding effect. In addition, it has protective features such as a self-locking latch system and spring-loaded collar to help keep components safe.

The 50-9518-11H offers superior signal stability and low-loss performance for protection of components in high-frequency circuits. Its application field includes 5G communication, satellite communication, vehicle networking, and more.
