Shielded RF sockets stop EMI leakage

The Centurion RF sockets feature full Faraday shielding to virtually eliminate EMI leakage. The shield cage includes a gimbal-mounted heat sink rated at 10 W (air-cooled) to assist in heat dissipation. An additional EMI gasket seals the aluminum clamshell to complete the Faraday cage for EMI containment.

The sockets provide clean power-and-ground connections with an estimated 0.25-nH inductance per pin. Moreover, impedance-controlled signal contact pins extend socket performance to 10 GHz. Contact pins of proven reliability are rated at 500,000 insertions. The sockets are available for CSP, µBGA, LGA, and QFN package formats, with pitches ranging from 1.0 to 0.4 mm.
