The SMP interface is a microminiature interface known for its high performance up to 40 GHz and is a common choice for board-to-board designs. The broad frequency range and small package size allows the SMP to be considered for a wide range of designs including telecommunications, test and measurement and military applications.
A critical element of the SMP board-to-board solution is the ability to tolerate and withstand misalignment when mating. The bullet adapter provides a link between PCB jacks and can compensate for up to four degrees of radial misalignment without affecting performance. The available detent systems - full, limited, and smooth bore - provide respective levels of engagement/disengagement forces.
For a cable-to-board mated pair, right-angle and straight plugs with termination capability to various semi-rigid, conformable or flexible coax cables are available. The receptacles are designed for surface, through hole, or end launch mounting.
The SMP is also available in a non-magnetic material, for use in medical or quantum computing applications.
