Molex's NeoPress High-Speed Mezzanine System

Molex's Modular NeoPress High-Speed Mezzanine System enables design flexibility on space-constrained PCBs with tunable differential pairs, low stack heights and compliant-pin terminations while offering data rates up to 28 Gbps.

Features and Benefits:

• Patent-pending modular triad wafer design offers high-speed differential pairs that can be tuned to 85- or 100-Ohm impedances provides a customized system for design flexibility
• Proven Impel pressfit compliant-pin termination design with data rates up to 28 Gbps enables solderless termination with easy board rework without sacrificing data speed
• Options include four triad configurations, high-speed single-ended traces, lowspeed single-ended lines and power contacts, they offer real-estate savings on PCB by supporting requirements for low- and high-speed signals and power within one compact connector
• High-speed triad wafers comprise three pins per differential pair (two signal pins and one shielded ground pin), it provides standalone 28+ Gbps fully shielded differential pairs with dedicated grounds
• Connectors feature a density of 76 differential pairs / triad per square inch. It offers ultra-high-density press-fit signal solution with optimal signal integrity performance
• Durable housing material delivers a robust system with mechanical stability
• Ground plate on upper and lower housings minimizes crosstalk and provides added alignment for pin stitching
• Hermaphroditic interface ensures that the receptacle beams are protected by the plug and shield contacts. It prevents terminal damage by protecting the mating contact interface
• Reliable mating interface with 1.50mm wipe sufficiently and conductively wipe for clean signal transmission and enhanced performance
• Mirror-image triad layout simplifies PCB routing. Lowers system costs by decreasing the number of PCB layers required for signal routing
• Available in 9.00 to 45.00mm mated stack heights addresses engineering constraints in system envelopes
• Staggered footprint within connector ensures zero-skew routing and minimized crosstalk

Applications:

• Telecommunications/Networking
  • Hubs
  • Servers
  • NAS Towers
  • Rack Mount Servers
• Industrial Automation
  • Controller Personality Cards
• Medical
