Making It Work Together Flawlessly
Mission-Critical Flight and Precision Targeting.
While the seeker/guidance section tracks the mission to target, the electronic control box performs the basic function of keeping the missile on track. Flight controls must monitor airframe dynamics and adjust flight parameters. Control systems deal with every section of the missile. They must be well protected against EMI, not only generated within the system but from external countermeasure sources. Increasingly, controls are distributed to bring intelligence closer to the sensors and actuators. Reliable, high-speed communications between various subsystems is critical.
Surface Mount Resistors
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.
DEUTSCH DTS Connectors
Our broad range of MIL-DTL-38999 and 38999-style connectors gives you more choice in shell sizes and materials, inserts for power, signal, and optical needs, filtering and EMI protection, hermetics and other special environmental sealing.
Through-Hole Resistors
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 commonly composed of carbon film, metal film, metal oxide film, thick film, or wirewound.
High-Speed Copper Cable
Complex computing systems require high-speed cable solutions. TE offers a wide range of high-speed protocols including Ethernet, Fibre Channel, IEEE 1394, USB, ESATA, PCI express and DVI, all targeted to improve reliability while driving down size and weight.
Trimmer Resistors
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.
Rugged Optics
Our expanded beam optics design incorporates a ball lens into a ruggedized connector with outstanding reliability and ease of maintainability. Add in an armored cable for the perfect optical assembly package.
Enclosures
TE’s expertise in engineering resins, additive chemistry, EMI, and thermal materials allows strong, composite enclosures that reduce weight (up to 40% over aluminum), improve functionality, and provide a cost effective replacement for aluminum.
Tactile Switches
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.
DIP and SIP Switches
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.
Pushbutton Switches
A pushbutton switch is a non-latching or momentary switch that causes a temporary change of current in an electrical circuit when the button is pressed. A spring returns the switch to its original position immediately afterwards.
Snap Action Switches
A snap action switch is a mechanical switch that sends a rapid transfer of contacts from one position to another. Also known as micro switches, snap action switches can be momentary or maintained contact and come in subminiature, miniature, and standard styles.
TE is helping designers create missile defense systems that are smaller, smarter, lighter, and more reliable. While a missile needs only to work once, every missile must be ready to perform flawlessly at a moment's notice. All subsystems must be reliable and easily maintainable to keep the missile mission ready.
