Nanonics Connectors from TE Connectivity Offer Weight and Cost Savings

HARRISBURG, Pa. – June 18, 2015 – TE Connectivity (TE), a world leader in connectivity, announces its new two-row nanominiature rectangular connectors as the latest addition to its line of nanonics connectors. The ultra-compact and weight-saving connectors have been qualified to MIL-DTL-32139 specifications by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime, and are designed to meet the rugged needs for applications within aerospace and defense, test and measurement, marine, and commercial air.

“TE has answered customers’ need for less expensive nanominiature products while providing interchangeability and meeting MIL-DTL-32139 specifications,” said Timothy A. Sheaffer, product manager, Global Aerospace, Defense & Marine, TE Connectivity. “Factory-terminated leads in this new product reduce installation costs and the captive plug jackscrews eliminate the need for additional accessory hardware.” 

Keyed housings also ease installation by virtually eliminating mismatch and stubbing during the mating process, and corrosion-resistant plating helps withstand harsh environments. In addition, the contacts are made of gold-plated copper alloy to withstand voltage from 250V at sea level, and 100V at 70,000 feet.

The new connectors consist of wired products with seven sizes from 9 to 51 positions. They are interchangeable and intermatable with most nanonics connectors including non-TE brands.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
