Abstract :
This paper presents the state of the technology of surface mounted connectors with a coaxial interface. The benefits of a novel design are discussed. This SMCC has an integrated transition from the coaxial structure to the planar structure. Fundamentals and new equipment used to perform accurate measurements on planar structures are also presented. The very good measurement results of the new surface mounted connectors indicate the success of the novel SMCC concept and the new developed SMT-connector testify the very good viability of this new concept.
