JAE Europe has introduced a 140-way board-to-board PCI Express connector, enabling embedded systems, copiers, medical equipment and other applications to benefit from multi-Gigabit, multi-channel serial communications. The WB4 series comprises right-angle connectors enabling horizontal mating of adjacent boards. The 0.5mm conductor pitch ensures a low footprint to enable multi-channel interconnects within minimal board real estate. The connectors are designed to close tolerances, which results in precision matching between differential signal pairs, as well as high signal integrity. Insertion loss is reduced to -5dB at 3.75GHz due to contact resistance below 100mΩ. Return loss is better than -4dB and cross-talk performance better than -26dB at 3.75Ghz. Insulation resistance greater than 100MΩ ensures compliance with applicable user-protection standards and the connectors exceed 200Vrms per minute dielectric withstand voltage. The WB4 series connectors are also optimised for surface-mount assembly.
