EMI/EMC Shielding Gaskets (For Dummies)
Why use an EMI and/or IP gasket in an electrical assembly? The primary aim is to ensure a seal against :- To particles (dust)- And/or fluids (air, water)- And/or electronics (grounding) in the case of EMI (electromagnetic compatibility) shielding joints.This water...
Spring Finger Contacts For Dummies
What is a Spring Finger Contact? A spring finger contact (SMT) is a small mechanical part used to make connection or grounding on electronic projects. These SMT contacts are made to support harsh environment (humidity, temperature, and vibrations). Spring finger...
The what, why and how of elastomeric connectors
Micro-electronic assembly always needs more connection density on reduced spaces.Therefore electronic connections are done by smaller and denser connectors. That for those assemblies that elastomeric connectors has been designed. Elastomeric connectors ensure high...
