摘要： An RJ series modular jack receptacle. The receptacle could comprise: a housing having a mating face and a circuit substrate engaging face; first and second openings in the mating face, arranged in stacked relation, the height of the housing being less than about 0.9 inch; and contact terminals in each of the openings positioned to mate with mating RJ series plugs inserted into the openings. The receptacle could also comprise: a housing with first and second openings, contact terminals in the first opening; and contact terminals in the second opening positioned relative to the contact terminals in the first opening so as to produce an acceptable level of cross-talk therebetween, such as −40 dB. The receptacle could comprise: a housing with first and second openings; and contact terminals. Adjacent contact terminals maintain a centerline distance, and the offset between the first opening and the second opening is a function of the centerline distance of the contact terminals.

摘要： A stacked modular jack connector having low cross talk and low combined stack height is disclosed. Low stack height is achieved by disposing contact terminals for stacked pairs of receptacles in a single coplanar array of interleaved terminals. The arrays are located between the receptacles. One receptacle of each pair is laterally offset from the other. For Ethernet applications, cross talk is minimized by arranging first, second, third and sixth terminals of a ten terminal array into a contact group of the first receptacle and fifth, eighth, ninth and tenth terminals of the array into a contact group of the second receptacle. Circuit board space requirements are minimized by arranging the terminal tails of both groups of terminals in a single line.

摘要： Methods for designing SMT connector footprints are disclosed. A circuit board may have disposed thereon an arrangement of SMT pads and corresponding vias. The arrangement of vias may differ from the arrangement of SMT pads. The arrangement of SMT pads may differ from the arrangement of contacts in a connector the footprint is designed to receive. The terminal ends of the contacts may be jogged or bent for electrical connection with the SMT pads. The SMT pads and vias may be arranged in a number of ways that increase signal contact density of the board, while limiting cross-talk and providing adequate impedance and routing space on the board. An interactive tool for designing such a footprint is disclosed.

摘要： An electrical-connector system includes an electrical connector having a plurality of upper signal contacts arranged in at least two rows of vertically-aligned pairs. A plurality of tails electrically couple the upper signal contacts to a circuit substrate. The upper tails have a predetermined length and are spaced apart by one or more predetermined distances so that the upper tails produce a compensating cross-talk. The compensating cross-talk offsets a cross-talk produced by the upper signal contacts. The electrical-connector system also includes a plurality of lower signal contacts electrically coupled to the substrate. The lower signal contacts are substantially located between the upper signal contacts and the circuit substrate.

摘要： An electrical connector system with an electrical connector having signal contacts exhibiting unwanted cross-talk; and a circuit substrate engaging the connector. The substrate has a plurality of layers and at least first, second and third traces, each corresponding to a respective signal contact. The first trace includes: a first portion on at least one of the layers and adjacent a portion of the second trace in order to produce a first compensating cross-talk; a second portion on at least another of the plurality of layers and adjacent a portion of the third trace in order to produce a second compensating cross-talk. The substrate could also comprise a board having a first layer, a second layer, a plurality of inner layers between said first and second layers, and a ground plane on at least a lower surface of said board. The inner layers have at least first, second and third traces, with the first trace having portions adjacent the second and third traces in order to produce a first and a second compensating cross-talk, respectively. The system reduces unwanted cross-talk by introducing a first compensating cross-talk by inductively and capacitively coupling a first conductor and a second conductor adjacent the first conductor; and introducing a second compensating cross-talk by capacitively coupling the first conductor and a third conductor once removed from the first conductor. The compensating cross-talks offset the unwanted cross-talk to produce an acceptable cross-talk.

摘要： An electrical connector that includes first and second linear arrays of electrical contacts is disclosed. The first linear array is arranged in a first pattern of signal contacts and ground contacts. The second linear array is arranged in a second pattern of signal contacts and ground contacts that is different from the first pattern. The signal contacts define differential signal pairs. The signal contacts in the first linear array are elongated along a direction along which the first linear array extends.
