Signal Terminators

This Product Selection Guide contains information to help select products in the Signal Terminators category on DigiKey.com

Signal Terminators are designed to provide an electrical end to a signal path to prevent the signal from being reflected back into the circuit and cause interference. The types are Cable, DDCA, SCSI, HVD, SE, LVD, Serial, and USB with the number of terminations being 1, 2, 6, 8, 9, 14, 15, 18, or 27.


SelectionCharacteristics

Type: Defines the primary construction style of the device, indicating which type of part it is and determining its general usage.

Number of Terminations: Indicates the number of independent circuits a device can service concurrently.

Voltage - Supply: Typically represented by a range, this indicates the low and high voltage limits which one can expect standard operation. Voltages outside this range may damage the device and other system components.

Operating Temperature: Recommended operating temperature, typically given in a range or as a maximum. Exceeding these temperatures may affect performance or damage the device and other system components.

Mounting Type: Indicates how the device is attached.

Package / Case: Indicates the type of protective case used on an electronic component to allow easy handling, installation, and protection. This selection was determined to be the closest industry standard applicable to the supplier device packaging. Typically it is best to check the actual dimensions from the datasheet rather than depend on this terminology when designing your circuit.

Supplier Device Package: This is what the manufacturer calls the package of this device. They are manufacturer specific. It is typically best to use the actual dimensions from the datasheets rather than to go by this terminology when designing your circuit.
