Abstract: Magnetic connector systems including a plug connector and a connector receptacle. In one example, the plug connector can include a magnetic target around a signal pin, where the signal pin is insulated from a plug enclosure by an insulating housing. The connector receptacle can include a magnet that is attracted to the magnetic target. The connector receptacle can contact the plug enclosure using one or more conductive springs. The one or more springs can deflect during an insertion of the plug enclosure. In another example, this deflection can act to expel moisture from the connector receptacle through drip holes in an enclosure for the connector receptacle.

Abstract: A test system may test the radio-frequency (RF) performance of wireless electronic devices under test (DUTs). The RF performance of the DUTs may be characterized by a set of performance metrics. The test system may obtain correlation information for each performance metric in the set of performance metrics. The correlation information may identify predictor performance metrics and associated dependent performance metrics in the set of performance metrics. The test system may gather measurement data from a selected DUT by measuring the predictor performance metrics on the selected DUT. The production test station may generate a conditional probability distribution for the dependent performance metric given the measurement data and the correlation information. The production test station may determine whether to omit testing of the dependent performance metric for the selected DUT by comparing an area under the conditional probability distribution for the dependent performance metric to a predetermined threshold.

Abstract translation: 测试系统可以测试被测试的无线电子设备（DUT）的射频（RF）性能。 DUT的RF性能可以通过一组性能度量来表征。 测试系统可以在该组性能度量中获得每个性能度量的相关性信息。 相关性信息可以在性能度量集合中识别预测器性能度量和相关联的依赖性能度量。 测试系统可以通过测量所选DUT上的预测器性能指标来从所选DUT收集测量数据。 生产测试站可以产生给定测量数据和相关信息的依赖性能度量的条件概率分布。 生产测试站可以通过将依赖性能度量的条件概率分布下的面积与预定阈值进行比较，来确定是否省略对所选DUT的依赖性能度量的测试。
