EMI/EMP - The connector solution

State-of-the-art electronics subject to severe EMI/EMP require the solution of problems in system connectors rather than within the system itself. On the basis of 20 years' experience with EMI filter pin connectors, a line of connectors has been developed which contains transient protection devices with or without EMI filtering. Attention is given to how transient suppression devices and/or filters can be packaged into the same connectors.
