‘Surface Mounting’

An Electronicstalk guide

Start with the news release Oscillator achieves ultra-low phase noise from Z-Communications, which we summarised at the time by saying "Z-Communications has announced an RoHS-compliant VCO (voltage-controlled oscillator) in S-band for digital radio and fixed wireless applications that require ultra-low phase noise performance. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Valve connector simplifies manufacturing process from Molex: "Molex has expanded its range of externally threaded Brad mPm DIN valve connectors with the addition of Form C and Form Micro housings for hydraulics and pneumatics systems.".
 
In December 2010, we covered the news from Tyco Electronics - take a look at Tyco announces JEDEC-based memory module which says: "Tyco Electronics has introduced a very low-profile (VLP) double-data-rate 3 (DDR3) dual in-line memory module (DIMM) socket designed around JEDEC industry standards. ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Binder, Binder adds rear-mount receptacles to M8 range, as well as Carling switches target transportation industry from Master Distributors, and Foremost offers Emobility charging connectors from Foremost Electronics.
