The first electrical connector includes a plurality of first signal conductors disposed along first and second sides of a first insulative housing and first ground plates disposed along the first and second sides of the first insulative housing and positioned adjacent the plurality of first signal conductors. The first electrical connector defines a slot for receiving an edge of a first printed circuit board. The second electrical connector includes a plurality of second signal conductors disposed along first and second sides of a second insulative housing and second ground plates disposed along the first and second sides of the second insulative housing and positioned adjacent the plurality of second signal conductors. Each of the second ground plates has a surface with a first edge and a second edge, at least one of the first edge or the second edge being bent in the direction toward the corresponding second signal conductor. When the first electrical connector and the second electrical connector are mated, the first signal conductors and corresponding second signal conductors are substantially enclosed and shielded by the first and second ground plates.

An electrical connector system suitable for use in a matrix assembly. The electrical connector assembly has two connectors, each assembled from wafers. Certain of the connectors include a combination of signal and power conductors while others have only signal conductors. In this way, the signal density is maximized.
摘要:
An electrical connector for transferring a plurality of differential signals between electrical components. The connector is made of modules that have a plurality of pairs of signal conductors with a first signal path and a second signal path. Each signal path has a pair of contact portions, and an interim section extending between the contact portions. For each pair of signal conductors, a first distance between the interim sections is less than a second distance between the pair of signal conductors and any other pair of signal conductors of the plurality. Embodiments are shown that increase routability.
摘要:
A high speed, high density electrical connector. The connector is assembled from wafers. Each wafer is formed by molding a first dielectric housing over a shield plate. Signal contacts are inserted into the first dielectric housing and a second housing is overmolded on the first housing. Features are employed to lock the first and second housings together with the shield plate to provide a mechanically robust subassembly. The connector as formed has a good electrical properties, including precise impedance control and low cross talk.

A modular connector system for interconnecting printed circuit boards includes a first connector having an insulative housing supporting an array of blade-shaped contacts and a second connector having a complementary array of beam-shaped contacts. Preferably, each beam-shaped contact includes substantially independent coplanar beams which, in use, contact a common surface of a respective blade-shaped contact to provide multiple points of contact. The second connector includes a plurality of modules stacked in parallel. Each module includes a shield plate having an insulative receptacle attached at one end and a row of signal conductors, each having a beam-shaped contact at one end. Each insulative receptacle has a first side in which cavities are provided to receive the beam-shaped contacts of the signal conductor. Each insulative receptacle further includes a second, opposite side in which holes are formed in substantial alignment with the cavities for receiving the blade-shaped contacts of the first connector.
摘要:
An electrical connector assembly used with a daughter board and a back plane that protects the daughter board and the electrical connectors from damage during use. The assembly includes mounting hardware that is attached to the daughter board to prevent it from bending when a high insertion force is used to plug the daughter board onto the back plane. The mounting hardware also prevents the electrical connectors from damage by distributing the insertion force evenly across the connectors. The assembly also includes a protective cover that is attached to the electrical connectors. The protective cover encloses the signal contacts of the electrical connectors that are attached to the daughter board, and swings away automatically to expose the signal contacts when the daughter board is plugged onto the back plane.
