AirMax VS signal connectors have passed both the RoHS and FCI Lead-Free qualification. While the AirMax VS Guides have always been available only as lead-free parts, the qualification of the signal connectors is the next step in ensuring that the VS family meets the environmental specification.
 
RoHS qualification included testing both receptacles and headers for insertion, retention and repair. The FCI lead-free qualification is an internal six-month test for whisker growth.
 
The test documentation report will be available in approximately three weeks.
 
VS connector system offers high-speed computing and networking designers versatility in structuring their backplane signal routing.
 
VS power connectors are in the process of being RoHS-qualified.

Mill-Max now offers a 7” mini reel to accommodate 8 & 12 mm carrier tapes.
 
Offers receptacles (discrete sockets) on carrier tape per EIA-481 to feed automated pick-and-place equipment. A 7” reel holds about one quarter the parts of a 13” reel. Is more economic and convenient for smaller volume customers.

Two types of receptacles are available on carrier tape: surface-mount, flat types, which sit on the    surface of the PCB where the pin or component lead plugs-in parallel to the PCB; and thru-hole types where the lead plugs-in perpendicular to the PCB. Thru-hole receptacles are intrusive reflow soldered.

Thru-hole (tubular) receptacles have an Organic Fibre Plug barrier which prevents solder paste or flux from contaminating the spring contact. After soldering, the barrier is pushed out of the receptacle when the device is plugged in.

Lead free plating options are available. Instead of traditional tin/lead plating on the receptacle’s shell and contact, a pure matte tin with oxide and whisker inhibitors can be specified.

Ground Pro ground integrity meter measures tool and facility ground parameters, including connectivity and noise.
 
The handheld, portable instrument measures impedance in compliance with ANSI 6.1 and ESDA S20.20 requirements.
 
Measures three important ground parameters:
 
1) Impedance Meter -  Measures the true value in Ohms on ground regardless of ground currents and noise/EMI that is common on working tools, with alarm threshold settings.
 
2) High Frequency (EMI) Signal Meter - Measures the peak and average of the high frequency (EMI) signals traveling in the tool or facility ground.  User defined alarm thresholds will audibly warn of high frequency (EMI) signals above preset levels.
 
3) AC Voltage Meter - Measures the AC voltage on ground, if ground is miswired accidentally, as with the other features, an audible alarm indication with notify the user.
