50015-5320G

Backplane connectors are mainly used to connect multiple PCBs together. The 50015-5320G is a specialized backplane connector from the 50015 series of high-speed connectors offered by AMP. The connector is used for connecting printed circuit boards in a high-speed, blind-mate backplane application.

The 50015-5320G has a high-speed signal rate of up to 20 GB/s and is able to deliver enough bandwidth for multiple boards. The design of the connector enables significant power and ground coupling to reduce impedance and noise. The connector is also available with an external grounding contact for enhanced system EMI performance. The connector is suitable for a wide range of applications, including server and storage systems, medical equipment and instrumentation as well as automotive applications.

The 50015-5320G connector has three rows of 55 contacts with 0.8mm pitch. The contacts are divided into columns which enable connections for power, ground, signal and differential pairs. The connector supports dynamic blind mate applications, meaning the board-to-board connection is made before the first contact is engaged. The connector’s robust design is able to withstand a high level of shock and vibration.

The 50015-5320G has a working principle that involves several components. When plugging in the connector, positive screws are engaged through the PCB. This prevents the user from over-torquing the screws and securing the connections. The positive screws also act as genderless design elements which ensure the correct mating of the contacts. This allows the user to have a high degree of accuracy and assurance when plugging in the connector.

The 50015-5320G provides high-speed and reliable performance in a range of applications. Its design and working principles make it an attractive solution for high-speed, blind-mate backplane applications. The connector is robust and is additionally able to handle a large amount of power, ground and signal pairs. The 50015-5320G is suitable for server and storage systems, medical equipment and instrumentation as well as automotive applications.
