Cabin Interiors & In-Flight Entertainment Applications

A surface mount resistor is a tiny rectangular ceramic body with silver conductive edges on either end. They provide the same functionality as the more traditional axially leaded resistors but has a lower power dissipation capacity and oftentimes a lower stray inductance and capacity.

Custom multicore cables are unique designs manufactured against specific customer needs for functionality and performance for aerospace, military ground systems and marine applications.

A through-hole resistor is a fixed resistor that has long, pliable leads that can be stuck into a breadboard or hand- or wave-soldered into a printed circuit board. A through-hole resistor is used to reduce the flow of electrical current within a circuit. It’s typically composed of carbon film, metal film, metal oxide film, thick film, or wirewound.

TE’s CeeLok FAS-T connector was designed to perform in some of the most extreme environments in the industry, while providing substantial size and weight savings in small form factor shell sizes. The T-shaped noise-cancelling contact configuration minimizes crosstalk.

A trimmer resistor is a type of variable resistor or adjustable potentiometer that can adjust, tune, and calibrate circuits. It is meant to never be seen or adjusted by the device’s user.

TE has developed a Next Generation ARINC 600 receptacle connector that offers the “perfect solution” for avionics manufacturers seeking reduced cost and weight savings.

A potentiometer is a manually adjustable variable resistor that allows you to change and regulate the current flowing through a resistor.

A multi-signal contact system consisting of two differential pairs (for matched impedance) used with quadraxial Ethernet and Fibre Channel cables. Available in shell size 8 (keyed); 24 AWG pin and socket contacts, Hex Crimp version as well as pin PCB tail solderable versions.

Probe pads are incorporated in circuitry to avoid damage to sensitive tiny electronic circuits in surface mount devices. Probe pads enable safe probing of circuitry when adjusting, setting up, measuring, or repairing tiny electronic circuitry.

TE ruggedized fiber optics brings the benefits of optical technology to the challenging environments and weight savings demands of aerospace applications.

Standardized in European Standard EN4165, DMC-M connectors provide a modular, flexible, and reliable system. The connectors are available in both multi-cavity and single-module configurations, using the same modules, to provide compact, lightweight connectivity. Today this connector continues to attract new users and applications because of its modularity, space/weight savings and robustness. In addition, it has evolved to include composite housings, aluminum wire capability, fiber optics, higher densities, and shunting configurations.

A DIP switch is a manual electronic package that is composed of a series of tiny switches. It has a rectangular casing and two parallel rows of connecting terminals. A SIP switch is a computer chip package that has a single row of connection pins.

Tactile switches provide tactile feedback to the user when the switch or button makes contact with the control panel underneath, which is usually a printed circuit board.
