Simple double-duty: How to get one wire to do more, Part 1: The rationale
Using one wire in two very different roles is widely done, requiring some simple circuity and basic components. It makes a lot of sense to use an individual single copper cable and its connection between two points to do more than it initially intended, especially if that additional function is aligned with the primary function […]
2.5 GHz high-frequency antenna connector employs one-step crimp termination
Hirose has reduced the size of its 2.5 GHz high-frequency antenna connector to offer significant space savings in automotive antenna systems. Employing a one-step crimp termination design, the GT21 Series antenna connector also reduces assembly time and cost. The crimp termination design also enables the cable assembly to be completed without touching the center conductor, […]
