Reliable matched-impedance connector range features low crosstalk
The Matched-Impedance Connector (MICTOR) system maintains a 50µ impedance and uses a solid ground bus between rows of signals to provide low crosstalk and excellent high-speed signal performance.
The MICTOR connector family, from Tyco Electronics, is based on the micro-strip concept of two rows of signal contacts divided by a centre power ground plane. These connectors are motherboard and daughtercard compatible and include designs for cable-to-board applications.
Various mated heights are available for parallel board-to-board systems and custom stacking heights can be provided. The MICTOR connector family is available in 0.64mm centrelines with sizes ranging from 38 signal positions to 266 positions (in increments of 38 positions). There is a discrete ground bus every 12.7mm of the connector length, which can be assigned to either power or ground in any combination.
The housing material used in the MICTOR connector family is a liquid crystal polymer, compatible with infrared and forced-air convection operations. Several plating options are available, and redundant interfaces on every signal line provide added reliability.
