There is provided a connector including a signal pin that stretches in a first direction and transmits a signal, a substrate that has one surface on which the signal pin is formed, and an electric conductor layer that has ground potential, the electric conductor layer being formed on an opposite surface of the surface of the substrate on which the signal pin is formed.

Connector system capable of mitigating signal deterioration

There is provided a wire connection device including an outer frame that has a tubular shape, and a plurality of contacts that are provided in the outer frame, and that have a plurality of pairs of differential contacts to which a plurality of pairs of differential signals are respectively allocated, and a plurality of ground contacts each to which ground is allocated. When viewed from a direction along a central axis of the outer frame, the plurality of contacts are arranged side by side in two rows in a manner that the differential contacts of each pair can be adjacent to each other and in a manner that the number of the ground contacts adjacent to one of the differential contacts of each pair is equal to the number of the ground contacts adjacent to the other one of the differential contacts of the pair.

Wire connection device, camera head and endoscopic device

To be able to further reduce deterioration in signal quality, there is provided a connector including: a signal pin () that is connected to a wiring pattern () on a mounted substrate () and that transmits a signal to an inside and an outside of any apparatus, the mounted substrate () having an end disposed in the apparatus; and a shell () that is formed of an electric conductor and grounded to ground potential on the mounted substrate (), in a manner that the shell () covers the signal pin () in a region in which the signal pin () stretches toward the mounted substrate ().

Connector, data transmitting apparatus, data receiving apparatus, and data transmitting and receiving system

To provide a connector enabling high quality signal transmission while maintaining compatibility with the current HDMI connector, in a new HDMI interface using pins assigned to a shield, as a data pair. Each of signal electrode pins is arrayed near a shell (grounding conductor) so as to couple with the shell, and differential signals are transmitted with single end. A ground plane is disposed between multiple signal electrode pins of a first stage and the plurality of signal electrode pins of a second stage within a dielectric. Also, connection conductors electrically connecting the ground plane and the grounding conductor are disposed between each of the signal electrode pins of each of the stages within the dielectric. With a pair of signal electrode pins transmitting differential signals, crosstalk from other signal electrode pins can be reduced, and high quality signal transmission is enabled.
