Patent number: 9209581Abstract: An electrical connector includes a dielectric housing with a plurality of filtering modules therein. Each filtering module has a housing and a magnetics assembly including transformer cores with wires wrapped therearound. An array of pins extend from the module housing for connection to the wires. A plurality of tails extend from the module housing for interconnection to a circuit board upon which the connector may be mounted. An interconnection is provided between the pins and tails that may include filtering or other signal modifying circuitry. A circuit member having an enhanced layout is also provided for use in or upon which the connector may be mounted.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2015Date of Patent: December 8, 2015Assignee: Molex, LLCInventors: Brian P. O'Malley, Michael R. Kamarauskas, Timothy R. McClelland, Emanuel G. Banakis, Johnny Chen, Kent E. Regnier

Patent number: 9153897Abstract: A connector with a port is provided that includes a first and second terminal, the first and second terminal configured to function as a differential pair and receive a differential signal. The differential pair is coupled a conditioning module. The conditioning module can be configured to provide an improved transformer. A common-mode circuit can be used to determine a level of common mode energy on the differential pair so as to provide feedback to an associated ASIC.Type: GrantFiled: November 4, 2010Date of Patent: October 6, 2015Assignee: Molex, LLCInventors: Johnny Chen, Brian P. O'Malley, Eliza L. Conant

Patent number: 7322856Abstract: A high speed connector includes a plurality of wafer-style components in which two columns of conductive terminals are supported in an insulative support body, the body including an internal cavity disposed between the two columns of conductive terminals. The terminals are arranged in horizontal pairs, and the internal cavity defines an air channel between each horizontal pair of terminals arranged in the two columns of terminals. The terminals are further aligned with each other in each row so that horizontal faces of the terminals in the two rows face each other to thereby promote broadside coupling between horizontal pairs of terminals.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2006Date of Patent: January 29, 2008Assignee: Molex IncorporatedInventors: John C. Laurx, Craig A. Bixler, Kent E. Regnier, David E. Dunham, Brian P. O'Malley

Publication number: 20040224559Abstract: A connector assembly is suitable for connecting circuit boards together. The connector assembly includes a series of ground and signal terminal sets assembled in terminal assemblies held within a housing. The ground terminals sets include a set of flat contact blades that are aligned together in abutting contact to form a line of ground contacts blades and the signal terminals are arranged in sets on opposite sides of the ground terminal contact blades. The signal terminals have general L-shapes that are arranged in sets of two pairs of contacts to form a cruciform pattern with an associated ground contact blade in the midst of the pattern of four. The terminal assemblies are formed from housings that have interfitting projections on their exterior sides, and the ground terminal housing is plated with a conductive material. This effectively surrounds each signal terminal in its extent through the signal terminal housing.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2003Publication date: November 11, 2004Inventors: Richard A.
