Filter Connectors
Filter connectors have been used for many years as a cost effective and space saving solution to EMI issues in a wide range of aerospace, defence type applications.
A low pass filter connector incorporates capacitors and ferrite inductors generally within a standard connector body. Most filter types L, C, LC, Pi and T filters can be incorporated. In addition to this, more specific configurations using Diodes, Metal Oxide Veristors (MOV’s) and various Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) devices to provide protection against EMP/ NEMP/ LEMP/ HEMP and ESD threats.
In conjunction with our partners we can offer an extensive range of standard and customised filtered connectors including EMC and EMP protection for sensitive circuits used on a wide range of applications within military and civil aerospace, C4i systems, Vetronics, industrial and power distribution systems.
LPA can also supply filtered versions of application specific products as well as custom and integrated system solutions.
The integration of the filter elements into the connector, rather than a board-level solution, results in many advantages to the user:
- Reduction in space and weight
- Reduction in inspection and assembly
- Improved high-frequency EMI performance by elimination of parasitic effects associated with board level filters
- Full interface compliance to all common connector specifications
- Superior shielding effectiveness
- D38999 series 1, D38999 series 2, D38999 series 3
- Arinc 404, Arinc 600
- Micro D
- Hermetic sealed
- EN4165 SIM
- Temperature Shock MIL-STD-810G, Method 503.5, -55°C to +125°C
- Vibration EN2591-403, 1g²/Hz, 50Hz – 2000Hz
- Shock MIL-STD-810G, method 516.6: procedure 1, 20g, 11ms Humidity EIA-364-31, Test Method IV Salt Spray 500 Hours NaCl dependent upon connector finish
- Aerospace – Civil and Military
- Fixed wing and Rotary wing aircraft
- Defence
- Marine
- Rail
- Industrial
