In addition to being more compact than individual Feedthrus, Thunderline Multipins will save you valuable time during installation and allow you to maintain critical pitch and spacing dimensions. These multi-pin headers come in a variety of styles from 2 pin up to 16 or more pins. They are built for both DC and RF applications up to 40 GHz and are available with combined RF and DC functionality in the same header. Filtered DC Multipins Filtered DC Multipins eliminate the typical step of having to hardwire capacitors internally to reduce interference. Filtering of unwanted interference is achieved via an integrated capacitor across the DC line. This capacitor can range in value from 10 to 47,000 picofarads. The value of this capacitor is chosen based on the frequency of the spurious signal required to be shunted to ground. Thunderline-Z utilizes proprietary SolderTightTM construction to add this filtering capacitor which allows for a soldering schedule exceeding 300° C. Thunderline Multipins are designed for use in a variety of commercial and military applications where signal purity, build costs and real estate issues are concerns.          RF Specifications   Frequency performance: Up to 40 GHz   Mechanical Specifications   Pin groupings: Up to 16   Material Options: Kovar, Stainless Steel, Steel, Aluminum   Plating Finishes: Nickel (electroless/electrolytic), Gold (hard/soft), Silver, Tin, Copper, Zinc   Temperature Range: -25 to 300° C   Pin Termination Options: straight cut, radiused, flattened, pierced, bent   DC Filtering Specifications   Capacitance Options: 10 to 47,000 pF
