Bridging the Gaps Between RF and High-Speed Digital Connector Technology

In today’s episode we feature an interesting conversation with Steve McGeary of Samtec, who has a rich technical background in RF/MW connectors. He talks about technology drivers that have caused the lines between HS Digital and RF/MW to blur. Over the past 5-10 years this has driven Samtec into the RF/MW connector technologies to meet the demands of increasingly complex systems design
