November 13, 2012 – Cooper Interconnect has added the Titan Ground Power Series of cable assemblies and field-replaceable adapters to its Burton family of aviation products.
Over the years, many connector products have been getting smaller, smaller, and smaller. They don’t do this by themselves; miniaturization is caused by electronic systems and subsystems shrinking while being packed with high-density chip-level components. Many connector systems remain relatively large. This disparity in size is because connector designs are as broad as the electronicsRead More
November 6, 2012– Rugged in-line connectors offer 50% space savings and strong vibration resistance.
Electronic connectors play a critical role in the expanding world of unmanned vehicles and devices. The electronic component industry has benefited over the years from the introduction of entirely new classes of products that created additional applications for separable connectors. In some cases, what has historically been a mechanical device is adapted to orRead More
