In the past decade, power system architects and engineers have been faced with the challenge to deliver more current in smaller

spaces, in order to meet the system-wide increases in electrical current driven by the higher power requirements and lower operating voltages of modern microprocessors. As time went by, it became clear that conventional power connector technologies were becoming increasingly inadequate to meet the stringent requirements of modern power systems.

Tribotek is focused on the design, development and manufacture of innovative and highly differentiated power connectors. Their technology is built on sound science and delivers improved performance in a smaller form factor than is possible with conventional power connector technology. Tribotek power connectors provide:

• The highest current density available in the market,
• The lowest electrical resistance across the separable interface, and
• As much as a 90% reduction in insertion force and contact wear.

Tribotek is now an award-winning company recognized in the power industry as the new star in power connectors. Thanks to its unique Flexible Manufacturing Process, custom design capabilities, extensive network of knowledgeable power sales representatives, and innovative technology, Tribotek is in a unique position to deliver the power connector solutions that high-tech companies worldwide need today, and well into the future.

The name Tribotek is derived from Tribology, "the science of the mechanisms of friction, lubrication, and wear of interacting surfaces that are in relative motion."
