SMA end-launch (edge-launch) connectors solder to the edge of a PCB for coplanar waveguide or microstrip line launch up to 18 GHz. The transition minimizes impedance discontinuity at the PCB-to-connector interface.
| Pin | Name | Function | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Center Pin | RF signal PCB trace launch | BUS |
| 2 | Ground Tabs | 4-point PCB ground plane connection | GND |
