Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the QTH-030-05-L-D-A-K-TR connector provide, and what is its pitch?
The QTH-030-05-L-D-A-K-TR provides 60 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration with a 0.50 mm pitch, enabling high-density board-to-board connections in a compact PCB footprint suitable for high-speed designs.
At what stacking height does the QTH-030-05-L-D-A-K-TR mate, and how does that affect enclosure design?
This connector mates at a 5.00 mm stacking height, giving designers a predictable board separation of 5.00 mm. That clearance simplifies mechanical enclosure planning for stacked PCB assemblies in telecom and instrumentation equipment.
Which high-speed applications benefit most from the ground plane terminal strip design of this connector?
Applications involving multi-Gbps data rates benefit greatly, including FPGA mezzanine cards, telecom line cards, and data acquisition modules. The ground plane strip reduces crosstalk and improves signal integrity at frequencies above 1 GHz across 60 signal positions.
How does QTH-030-05-L-D-A-K-TR compare to a standard 0.50 mm board-to-board connector without a ground plane?
Unlike standard connectors without a ground plane, the QTH series integrates a dedicated ground strip between signal rows, providing controlled impedance and reduced EMI. This makes it preferable for designs running differential pairs at data rates above 3 Gbps over 60 positions.
