Hyperboloid
Hypertac is a superior performing hyperboloidcontact technology designed for use in harsh
and demanding environments where highreliability and safety are critical. The inherentelectrical and mechanical characteristics ofthe Hypertac hyperboloid contact ensuresunrivaled performance in terms of reliability,number of mating cycles, low contact force andminimal contact resistance.
Spring Probes
Spring probes are designed to optimize performance
in high reliability, multi-cycle applications. Spring
probes are compliant contacts which makes them
ideal for blind mate applications as they self-correct
for x, y, z, rotational and angular misalignment of the
target. Offered in compressed heights less than 2
mm and utilized on pitches as tight as 0.4mm, they
are well-suited for high density, board-to-board,
battery contact, and high frequency applications.
EMI/EMP Filter
capacitor arrays together with inductive materials
networks. They can be combined with high energy
TVS diode technology to achieve high level lightning
and EMP transient protection.
