PIS on-board the train updates passengers during their travel

Smiths Interconnect helps keep rail passengers informed

Identified the need for more resilient interconnect technology they could incorporate into the design of their PIS cabinets. As well as being robust, lightweight and compact, they needed connectors that are easy to assemble, configurable for different applications and models.

Semiconductor test sockets: Key to shipping quality ICs

Testing during manufacturing plays a key role in ensuring reliable and repeatable performance. A semiconductor fabrication plant combines precise control of every process parameter with testing at each stage of production to weed out faulty parts as early as possible.

The Increasing Threat of Electromagnetic Interference

Design engineers need a way to filter out the unwanted electrical signal, so it doesn’t harm additional components. In order to protect modern electronic systems from the abundance of EMI sources in today’s environments, a combination of approaches is implemented: shielding, filtering, and reduction of EMI at the source (if possible).

Decreasing the cost of ownership for medical devices

Our team began by deconstructing the real-world requirements – both by device manufacturers and patients – and concluded that many connectors have become far more sophisticated, complex, prescriptive and durable than they need to be. Quite simply, they were over-built for their intended application.

Ku Band Printed Filter on Alumina

Planar Filters Continue to Advance

Microstrip filters are considered planar because they are constructed using flat two-dimensional microstrip resonators on a dielectric substrate. Generally speaking, they offer similar performance to their larger counterparts built with discrete components that must be tuned by hand to achieve the desired results.
