Micro Connectors and Nano Connectors Specifications

Help with Micro Connectors and Nano Connectors specifications:

Connector Type

	Connector Type
	Your choices are...
	Circular / Cylindrical Connector		Circular connectors and cylindrical connectors are multi-pin connectors used primarily for external interfacing. In general, they are used in military applications and comply with military specifications. Their design takes into account the need to protect the connection from environmental factors, which allows them to be used in military and aerospace applications.
	Coaxial Connector		Coaxial cables are composed of an insulated central conducting wire wrapped in another cylindrical conductor (the shield). The cable is usually wrapped in another insulating layer and an outer protective layer. Coaxial cables have the capacity to carry vast quantities of information. They are typically used in high-speed data and CATV applications.
	Hospital Grade / Medical		Conforms to rigorous safety standards associated with official hospital grade certification; testing includes prevention of inadvertent plug disengagement from outlet and increased shock and impact ratings.
	Military Connector		Military connectors (MIL-SPEC) are shell-type connectors built in accordance with military specifications. Their design protects the connection from environmental factors, allowing them to be used in military and aerospace applications.
	Other		Other unlisted, specialized or proprietary connector.

Specifications

	Gender
	Your choices are...
	Male / Plug		Male connectors or plugs are often referred to as header or free connectors. In coaxial RF connectors, the plug is normally the movable portion and is usually attached to a cable or removable sub-assembly. In shell-type, multiple-contact connectors, the plug usually contains the socket contacts and is mounted on the "hot" (rack) side of the system. Plugs mate with receptacles, jacks, outlets, etc.
	Female / Jack		Female connectors or jacks are connecting devices into which plugs are inserted to make circuit connections.
	Search Logic:		All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
	Geometry
	Your choices are...
	Straight		The connector does not bend.
	Right Angle		The connector is bent at a right angle.
	Other		Other unlisted geometry.
	Search Logic:		All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.

Performance The maximum current or maximum voltage defined by an approval organization may differ from the supplier's maximums. In many cases, the product can be used safely at an unapproved level. Check with the supplier for specific usage details.

	Contact Pitch		The contact pitch is the distance between pins in the connector.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
	Number of Contacts		The number of contacts is the number of conductive elements that mate with a corresponding element to provide an electrical path.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
	Voltage Rating		Voltage rating is the maximum operating voltage.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
	Current Rating		Current rating is the maximum, recommended, continuous flow of electrical current.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
