REDFIT IDC SKEDD Connector

he challenge for device developers is to find a way of connecting controls on the front of the housing to USB ports on the back of a device in a space-saving and cost-effective way without reducing signal quality. Therefore, inside the housing, the boards are usually connected with ribbon cables.

During simple signal transmission from a USB to a flat ribbon cable, differential-mode interference occurs between the conductor and the data line. By simply adding two additional ground wires it is possible to convert differential-mode to common-mode interference, which can easily be eliminated with a data line filter. Combined with the advantages of SKEDD technology it is easy to realize highly cost effective and maintenance-friendly connections to USB interfaces.
