HYBRID PITCH THROUGH HOLE CONNECTOR

Abstract:

Connectors with a hybrid pitch are described. In one example, a connector to couple a card or module to a motherboard includes connector housing and a plurality of pins. The plurality of pins include alternating signal and ground pins. Each of the plurality of pins includes a card or module-facing end to couple with the card or module and a lead to couple with a through hole in the motherboard. A first pitch between leads of a pin and a first adjacent pin is different than a second pitch between leads of the pin and a second adjacent pin.
