AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing communication systems, cable-to-board edge connectors occupy space on the circuit board, increasing the overall area and providing additional mating interfaces, resulting in high costs and insufficient reliability.

Method used

By using cable socket connectors, the need for edge connectors is eliminated by directly mating the cable socket connector with the edge of the mating circuit board. Reliable electrical connection is achieved using signal contacts and cable conductors, reducing signal path length and number of interfaces.

Benefits of technology

It reduces the cost and overall size of the communication system, while providing reliable electrical connections and shielded signal paths, reducing circuit trace length and mating interfaces.

Abstract

A communication system (100) includes a circuit board assembly (104) comprising a mating circuit board (110) having a mating edge (114) and a plurality of mating pads (120) at the mating edge, and the circuit board assembly having electrical components (106) electrically connected to the mating circuit board. The communication system includes a cable receptacle connector (102) removably coupled to the mating edge of the mating circuit board. The cable receptacle connector includes a connector housing (140) having a connector cavity (142) and a slot (150). A cable (160) extends from the connector housing. The cable receptacle connector includes signal contacts (170), each signal contact having a mating end (144) mating with a corresponding mating pad and a termination end (176) electrically connected to a cable conductor (664) of the cable.
