Design considerations for 5G connectors
Although the introduction of high-frequency 5G signals provides many solutions for connectors, more problems need to be considered in the design of 5G connectors. The design of 5G connectors requires attention.
If consumer products are required to have the transmission speed stipulated in the 5G standard, for this challenge, the connector needs to be carefully designed and manufactured to minimize the impedance change on the transmission line.
In addition, external signals may also be affected, so 5G connectors need to fully protect the system from electromagnetic interference from external signals and capacitive pickup, and ensure signal integrity and shield electromagnetic interference (EMI) under high-speed transmission. ).
In addition, 5G connectors must also adapt to the miniaturization space of modern mobile devices.
In addition to being limited in shape, 5G connectors must also meet the strict requirements of application parameters, such as voltage standing wave ratio and insertion loss.
Although the introduction of high-frequency 5G signals provides connectors with many solutions, well-designed 5G connectors can effectively reduce signal reflection, degradation, and distortion, and enable them to be fully shielded, thereby effectively reducing EMI.
