Ironwood: Hi-Performance Elastomer Socket


Eagan, MN — Ironwood Electronics has introduced a high-performance elastomer socket for 0.65 mm (0.026 in.) pitch BGA packages. The SG- BGA-9002 socket is designed for a 25 x 25 mm (0.98 x 0.98 in.) package size and operates at bandwidths up to 30 GHz with less than 1 dB of insertion loss. The contact resistance is typically 20 mW per pin. Network analyzer reflection


measurements for the G-S-S-G case were taken with all except the pins under consideration ter- minated into 50W. The socket is mounted using supplied hard- ware on the target PCB with no soldering, and according to the company, has the smallest foot- print in the industry. The small footprint allows


inductors, resistors and decou- pling capacitors to be placed very close to the device for impedance tuning. The socket also incorporates a simple hardware installation method to change out ICs quickly. The socket is designed for 20W power dissipation using a heatsink compression screw with an axial flow DC fan.

The sockets are constructed


with high-performance and low- inductance elastomer contactors and operate in a temperature range of –35 to +100°C (–31 to +212°F). The pin self inductance is 0.118 nH and have a mutual inductance of 0.025 nH. Capacitance to ground is 0.229


APEM Intros Game-Style Pendant Controller


Vista, CA — APEM, Inc., a manufac- turer of miniature and industrial switches, has introduced its PC series of ergonomic game-style pen- dant controllers. The handheld devices accommodate the com- pany’s TS series of miniature proportional joysticks and pro- vide either analog voltage or USB output. The PC series is designed to be used to control unmanned vehicles, robotics, and for other remote-controlled applications. The controllers were developed to provide a con- trol method that is intuitive and easy to adapt to. Modeled on consumer video game con- trollers, the familiar design allows operators to learn to use it quickly. The PC series is molded from


high-impact, glass-filled nylon and has a modular design to provide OEMs the ability to configure the device as needed. Standard, off-the- shelf configurations can be specified with miniature Hall effect joysticks, snap action pushbuttons and USB interface. Future configuration options will include wireless commu- nications as well as haptic feedback. The PC series can be environ- mentally sealed up to IP67, making

As standard, the PC series pro-


vides a USB 1.1 interface and inte- grates with software applications supporting USB joysticks or mouse inputs with Microsoft DirectX. No device driver or manufacturer specif- ic SDK is required, the PC series is recognized as either a HID-compliant game controller joystick or as a stan-


dard mouse or cursor control device. Contact: APEM, Inc., 970 Park

Grieve Intros Vertical Conveyor Oven


Round Lake, IL — Grieve has intro- duced its No. 959, an electrically-heat- ed, vertical conveyor oven designed for curing electronics. Incoloy- sheathed, 40 kW, tubular elements heat the oven chamber, while a 6,000 CFM, 5 hp recirculating blower provides downward airflow to the workload. The oven’s work-


space measures 36 x 89 x 115 in. (91.4 x 226.1 x 292.1 cm) and has 4 in. (101.6 mm) insulated walls, an aluminized steel interior and exterior, a motor-operated vertical lift door at the loading/ unloading opening, and two independent doors for access to the workspace. The unit has 27


product carrier trays, each 30 x 14 in. (76.2 x 35.6 cm) that are support- ed at each side by a heavy-duty roller chain, driven by a 0.5 hp motor controlled by VFD. Oven controls in clude a digital
