SEAM-20-06.5-S-08-2-A-K-TR

The SEAM-20-06.5-S-08-2-A-K-TR is a type of rectangular connector array, usually called edge type, which is used for mezzanine (board to board) applications. This type of connector is often used in high-speed data transmission applications and is designed with two or more array sections to provide secure, interruptible connections between different boards.

The shape of the connector is rectangular, which is a usual characteristic of mezzanine type connectors, with the section terminals on the sides. This, compared to the standard rectangular connector architecture, allows the connector to reduce the number of slots and pins required for a connection. As a result, it is possible to reduce the area necessary for the connection and make it more compact and space efficient.

In terms of connection, the SEAM-20-06.5-S-08-2-A-K-TR connector is designed with two rows of discrete contacts, each with eight pins arranged in both horizontal and vertical orientation. The contact pads are plated on both faces of the connector for increased electrical and mechanical performance and durability. The two contact rows are separated by a thin dielectric wall allowing the connector to be mounted in a single board-to-board configuration for robust and reliable connections.

The SEAM-20-06.5-S-08-2-A-K-TR connector provides electrical performance up to 8 Gbit/s, with data rates of up to 25 Gbit/s. This type of connector is also designed to meet EMI and EMC specifications, with shielding and ground plane for maximum electrical isolation and noise protection. Additionally, this connector includes oxygen bump technology for improved oxidation resistance and superior signal integrity.

In terms of mechanical performance, the SEAM-20-06.5-S-08-2-A-K-TR connector has a robust construction with a good number of retention features to secure the connector in place. The designers can reduce its size by using thinner walls and material for the array sections, and/or an optional overmold connector designed. The board and the connector can be designed with built-in alignment features for easier mating and better stability in high-speed applications. The contact and board combination comply with IP67 dust and water protection ratings.

With its robust design and impressive electrical and mechanical performance, the SEAM-20-06.5-S-08-2-A-K-TR connector can provide reliable and durable connections for a variety of high-speed mezzanine (board to board) connections in applications that require strict signal integrity parameters such as automotive, medical, and telecom. Moreover, this type of connector is designed to provide easy and intuitive assembly, while offering a smaller form factor and reduced space requirements compared to other types of connectors.
