HI Experts I want to know about the specifications for Connectors to be used in a high speed design. I know one thumb rule ie. ** Use grounds betweem the signals on a connector to reduce the loop area of the return current which will reduce cross talk & EMI. Are there any other Thumb rules for designing the Connectors or some other design specifications for connecting high speed & fast rise time traces to connectors ?
