Amphenol FCI has launched the Minitek MicroSpace Crimp-to-Wire (CtW) Connector Platform. The unique design of Minitek MicroSpace CtW connector platform enables high density (up to 1.27mm) contact pitch while preserving compatibility with the LV214 Severity-2 standard. This makes it a suitable interconnect solution for new and emerging Automotive Electronics applications.

Engineered for the wireless market and suited for applications requiring low PIM (Passive InterModulation), Amphenol RF has announced a full range of 4.3-10 connectors and adapters. 4.3-10 connectors offer the same, robust design as 7/16 connectors but are smaller and up to 40% lighter, allowing for much more dense, lighter weight applications.

  The ATHD series has been enhanced by Amphenol to include stamped and formed contacts for size 12 terminals that are rated to 25A. This heavy duty, single pole, rugged, in-line connection system is designed to replace splices as well as provide power wherever needed.

A medium amperage connection system that is rated to up to 70A of continuous current is now offered by Amphenol Industrial Products Group. The ePower-Lite has an operating voltage of 800VDC. Designed for the hybrid and electric vehicle markets, these connectors feature a lightweight plastic shell and compact design to provide both weight and space savings in vehicle architecture.

An expansion to its line of MCX interconnects has been introduced by Amphenol RF. Recognised for their small package size and dependable performance, MCX connectors are a popular choice among engineers and application designers. The extended line of PCB jacks are available in straight, right-angle, or edge-mount configurations, with options for surface or through-hole mounting. 

A division of Amphenol Industrial Products Group, Amphenol Industrial Operations (AIO), has recently opened Amphenol EEC. This new facility, centrally located in Chicago, Illinois, manufactures connectors and cable assemblies that meet the stringent requirements of the Buy America programme.

Amphenol RF has announced a series of high frequency SMA end launch connectors, offering exceptional VSWR performance up to 26.5GHz. Featuring an optimised end launch design with either through-hole legs or traditional slide-on mounting legs, these connectors are suitable as a PCB connector solution for high frequency applications.

Amphenol RF announces an expansion to its PSMP interface. Building upon the flexibility of PSMP board-to-board designs, four new PSMP cable connectors are now available. These connectors are designed for 0.141 and 0.86" diameter semi-rigid and conformable cables, providing engineers with choices beyond the current board to board options for this versatile interface.

Amphenol Advanced Sensors’ NovaSensor product line announces the extension of the NPA product line to cover the very low pressure ranges of 2” H2O (500 Pa) and 5” H2O (1250 Pa). Utilising NPA packaging platform, Amphenol NovaSensor has designed and incorporated an optimised silicon-micro machined pressure-sensing element to give superior performance for particularly challenging applications, such as HVAC, Respiratory Monito...

Amphenol and Samtec have entered into license agreements for several backplane connector families. Under the agreements, Amphenol will license its intellectual property and detailed design information for the XCede, XCede HD, AirMax, and Paladin families of products. These product families include those acquired with Amphenol’s recent acquisition of FCI Asia.

Enhancing its Max M12 product line, Amphenol has introduced board level connectors that mate to a PCB board with straight or right angle solder pins. The Max M12 is suited for high speed data transmission devices found in harsh environments where there is high vibration, moisture, salt, dirt and debris.

Expanding its PT series, Amphenol Industrial Products has announced a quick disconnect circular connector suited for use in the heavy equipment, transportation, diesel engine and EV markets. Based on Amphenol's 26482 series I, the UPT features a plastic shell with a metal coupling system and crimp termination. This lightweight connector has a smaller footprint and is easy to install in the field once it has been crimped in the facility.

Designed for harsh environments, Amphenol Industrial Products Group's standard shell plating has been enhanced from standard cadmium to Gray ZnNi (gray zinc over electroless nickel). This plating was initially designed for use in marine application but is now used in military and industrial applications or where RoHS-compliant plating is required.

Amphenol RF is pleased to introduce its PSMP interface as a suitable solution for board-to-board applications. With a minimum board spacing of 12.6mm, the compact three-piece design allows maximum flexibility for high-density board spacing and is suited for blind-mating situations.

Expanding the company's SMA product family, Amphenol RF has introduced anti-torque stainless steel connectors and cable assemblies with anti-torque bodies. This allows the user to hold the body with one wrench while simultaneously torqueing down the coupling nut to its mating connector with another. This helps to keep the entire assembly from twisting, thereby preventing damage to both the cable and the connector during installation.
