Molex targets automotive audio, video connections


Sep 8, 2010

LISLE, Ill. -- Molex has introduced its Customer Convenience Port (CCP) modules, designed to provide the automotive (and non-automotive) transportation markets with access to high-speed audio and video connections needed for computers, video displays, CD players, DVD players and video games.

The company says the CCP modules can be designed and supplied with high-level custom options including full I/O integration, passive and active PCB routing and mechanical enclosure design.

“Automotive manufacturers are looking for ways to differentiate their product offering from others on the market. As a result, customization has become increasingly important,” said Gary Manchester, director of marketing, Molex Incorporated. “Our expertise in meeting the design challenges of the connected vehicle has enabled us to create a flexible, technologically advanced solution tailored to meet an engineer’s specific automotive requirements.”

Other features of the Molex CCP modules include:

-- Use of multiple connection types such as HSAutoLink, USB, HDMI, IEEE 1394, Ethernet, SD memory cards, auxiliary jack inputs and more to meet end-system requirements;

-- Power supply and media-bus architectures designed to adapt to customers’ existing application requirements, thereby eliminating or reducing the need for application redesign;

-- Testing and product validation support, including electrical, mechanical, environmental, EMI, ESD and signal integrity evaluations;

-- A complete manufacturing solution including surface-mount or through-hole PCB assembly, final assembly and testing and PPAP (Production Parts Approval Process).
