Generate® High-Speed Edge Card System

From ADAS to fully autonomous vehicles, the use of automotive vision systems to study the road and environment is growing. LiDAR, Radar, sensors and cameras require low latency and power consumption to gather large amounts of data in real-time for safe and reliable operation in all conditions. Samtec offers high-speed, space saving and flexible solutions to help connect vision systems to the computing system for fast, immediate reactions on the road.

High-speed edge card systems use Samtec’s Edge Rate® contact system is designed for high speed, high cycle applications. The surface of the Edge Rate® contact is milled creating a smooth mating surface area instead of a stamped contact that mates on a cut edge. This smooth mating surface reduces the wear tracks on the contact increasing the durability and cycle life of the contact system. It also lowers insertion and withdrawal forces allowing the connectors to be zippered when unmating.

Samtec's Generate® 0.80 mm pitch edge card sockets feature Edge Rate® contacts optimized for signal integrity performance. Available in vertical, right-angle, edge mount, pass-through and power/signal combo for design flexibility.
