SI test platforms for evaluating AcceleRate® Slim Direct Attach Cable Assemblies
Overview
As data rates increase, trace length on PCBs decrease. Samtec's high-speed, Flyover® cable assemblies simplify PCB design and limit signal degradation in high data rate applications. The AcceleRate® Flyover® SI Evaluation Kits provide system designers and SI engineers an easy-to-use solution for testing 0.635 mm AcceleRate® Slim Direct Attach Cable Assemblies.
The AcceleRate® Flyover® (x8) SI Evaluation Kit (REF-203425-X.XX-XX) routes eight high-speed differential pairs through Precision RF connectors, an AcceleRate® Slim Cable Assembly and AcceleRate® Slim Sockets.
The AcceleRate® Flyover® (x16) SI Evaluation Kit (REF-212901-X.XX-XX-XX) routes sixteen high-speed differential pairs through Precision RF connectors, an AcceleRate® Slim Cable Assembly and AcceleRate® Slim Sockets.
The AcceleRate® Flyover® SI Evaluation Kits deliver a high-quality system with robust mechanical design. Please contact Samtec's technical experts at KitsAndBoards@samtec.com for additional information.
