Meeting Changing Industry Demands with High Reliability Solutions
Despite facing obstacles such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Smiths Interconnect has responded to the growing demands for interconnection technologies in markets such as medical, and provided solutions for the semiconductor test and aerospace industries. Rachael Morling finds out more from Roberta Rebora, product marketing and communications director, Smiths Interconnect.
Smiths Interconnect connectors drive revolution in automotive testing
Such cutting-edge expectations demand connectors that can perform reliably and consistently in the relentlessly unforgiving test environment, with the resilience to withstand multiple mating cycles over an extended period of time without failure. But, at the same time, they need to be easy to assemble, have a low unit price and be configurable for different applications and models.

Smiths Interconnect helps keep rail passengers informed
Identified the need for more resilient interconnect technology they could incorporate into the design of their PIS cabinets. As well as being robust, lightweight and compact, they needed connectors that are easy to assemble, configurable for different applications and models.
Semiconductor test sockets: Key to shipping quality ICs
Testing during manufacturing plays a key role in ensuring reliable and repeatable performance. A semiconductor fabrication plant combines precise control of every process parameter with testing at each stage of production to weed out faulty parts as early as possible.
The Increasing Threat of Electromagnetic Interference
Design engineers need a way to filter out the unwanted electrical signal, so it doesn’t harm additional components. In order to protect modern electronic systems from the abundance of EMI sources in today’s environments, a combination of approaches is implemented: shielding, filtering, and reduction of EMI at the source (if possible).

Intercompact connector series consolidates the strong partnership with Grafikontrol
Throughout the years, Smiths interconnect has supplied multiple highly reliable PCB connectors to Grafikontrol for their graphic industry equipment which primary objectives were to improve print quality, reduce downtime, and print waste.
Decreasing the cost of ownership for medical devices
Our team began by deconstructing the real-world requirements – both by device manufacturers and patients – and concluded that many connectors have become far more sophisticated, complex, prescriptive and durable than they need to be. Quite simply, they were over-built for their intended application.
Planar Filters Continue to Advance
Microstrip filters are considered planar because they are constructed using flat two-dimensional microstrip resonators on a dielectric substrate. Generally speaking, they offer similar performance to their larger counterparts built with discrete components that must be tuned by hand to achieve the desired results.
Space connectors make historic pass through Sun's atmosphere on board Nasa’s Parker Solar Probe
Smiths Interconnect’s microwave RF components, delivering high reliability and connectivity performance, are used in the data and control transmission systems of the Parker Solar Probe, a NASA robotic spacecraft. Launched in 2018 with the mission of repeatedly probing and making observations of the outer most part of the Sun’s atmosphere, the Parker Solar Probe is one of the most audacious missions ever mounted by the agency.
Cosmic crash may be our proudest space mission yet
Having long been an enabling partner for space voyages, and carefully cultivated a reputation for safety and reliability as well as performance, we’re now part of the first mission where a deliberate full-scale cosmic crash was the primary objective.
