The industry wide adoption of connector
standards for computer peripherals has helped
facilitate the explosion of consumer electronics
technology. The resulting Universal Serial Bus
(USB) connector allows for high-speed, easy
connection of an ever-increasing range of
peripherals to a PC and to each other.
connectors. The original USB 1.0 has been supplemented by
USB 2.0, which passed in 2000. USB 2.0 allows for significantly
higher data transfer rates, 480 megabits per second (MPS)
vs. only 12 MPS under USB 1.0. Additionally, in 2002 USB
On-The-Go (OTG) was introduced to further extend these
connectors to dual-role devices that can act as a host or
peripheral. All of these standards have yielded devices that
are much easier to install and can be freely connected and
disconnected without rebooting the computer system.
The Need for EMI & ESD Protection
with hot-plug capability is greater risk of system exposure to
electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electrostatic
discharge (ESD). Both of these phenomenon can cause
transmission signal degradation, loss of data, system lock-up,
and permanent hardware damage. As system circuitry has
gotten more complex to accommodate faster transfer speeds
and smaller package sizes, greater potential exists for
damage from EMI and ESD occurrences. The USB 2.0 spec
calls for EMI and ESD protection according to industry
specifications. This protection has become more of a
challenge as less space is available for components and
smaller IC chips are more susceptible to low level damage.
A Better Solution...
Filtering at the Connector
that incorporates EMI and ESD filters into an industry standard
USB package. By moving the EMI filtering or ESD protection to
the USB connector, designers can free-up valuable PC board
space for other components and provide better protection for
the entire device. These connectors are drop-in replacements
for unfiltered connectors making them ideal solutions for the
ongoing miniaturization of peripheral devices. Spectrum’s EMI
filtered and ESD protected USB connectors also can eliminate
the need to redesign PC boards in the event of noncompliance
during either EMC or ESD testing. Various models of these
connectors meet the requirements of USB 1.1 or USB 2.0
specifications and all are RoHS compliant.
