QuickLink twist-to-lock compression mount connector replaces surface mount connectors that require a receptacle on the PCB. Mounts directly to the PCB with a twist-to-lock footprint design that requires two small through-holes and a gold pad for the connector to land on. Footprints reportedly can be placed anywhere on the board to permit access to any channels from the device without having to solder on SMA or SMP surface mount receptacles. Low loss to 70GHz; meets bandwidth requirements of PAM4 signaling and Ka/Ku band applications. No threading or tools required.

4040 vapor phase soldering system installs in virtually any workspace, without need for complex ductwork and external venting. Efficient heat transfer and gentle conditions are said to generate minimal exhaust that is easily managed by any low-cost, self-contained, fume extraction system. Power rating of less than 3kW (75 to 80% less than small convection ovens). Multi-chamber design and automatic board handling system. Illuminated processing chamber includes 14" viewing window and is completely isolated during soldering. Fluid recovery system collects and filters condensate during cooldown. Cycle times range from 6 to 9 min. or less. Extra-large (18" x 16") work holder for batch soldering of multiple boards. Soldering programs can be created automatically in seconds, without profiling. Thermocouple connector accessory monitors actual board temperature throughout soldering cycle, for fine-tuning soldering programs can be fine-tuned for increased efficiency and energy savings. Thermal profile data can be recorded, saved and exported through built-in SD card slot, for SPC traceability.

Dual-Simultaneous Programmable Pitch is for Select Coat SL-940 conformal coating. Two of the same conformal coating applicators are installed and operate simultaneously, coating two parts at the same time. Automatically repositions applicators to match programmed pitch. Reportedly reduces conformal coating process time by 50%. The pitch is programmed and will adjust automatically. Easy Coat software lets user program when to use one or both applicators.
