Times Microwave Systems announces TF-047 micro-coaxial cable
Times Microwave Systems’ TF-047 micro-coaxial cable offers high performance and reliability in a compact footprint. TF-047 leverages a versatile SwaP-C solution with extensive connector capability for high-density and high-frequency applications including medical device, inside-the-box connectivity, semiconductor test, quantum computing and mobile devices, said the company.
TF-047 is compact and flexible for easy routing in space-constrained areas, claimed the company. It has an overall diameter of 1.40mm (0.055in) and can support bends as tight as 5.08mm (0.20in). TF-047 performs from DC to 50GHz
The lightweight TF-047 micro-coaxial cable (maximum weight of 1.71kg (3.77lbs) per 1,000 feet) is available with a variety of push-on and threaded connectors. It can be used in flexible catheters, medical imaging and patient monitoring applications, for board-to-board, backplane and crossover box-box/inside-the-box connectivity, as well as for bench/production tests, troubleshooting setup, signal fanout and ATE in semiconductor manufacturing. TF-047 will also be useful in quantum computing for external and internal RF lines, and in laptops, tablets and audio/video products.
Times Microwave Systems’ new TF-047 adds another dimension to our lineup of micro-coaxial cables, along with our InstaBend 047, SF-047 and Phasetrack-047 products, said Kai Loh, product solutions manager at Times Microwave Systems. “It allows us to offer a versatile range of micro-coaxial cables for many of today’s more challenging installations.”
Times Microwave Systems’ TF-047 micro-coaxial cable is available now as bulk cable or assemblies, with a short lead time in standard configurations or it can be customised to meet an application’s specific needs.
