更具體而言，圖67為根據一實施例的實例高速纜線總成側邊建置器UI。側邊建置器UI藉由提示使用者選擇或指定一或多個cable assembly產品相關參數(例如，category(類別)、family、interconnect type(互連類型)、pitch、positions、signal type(信號類型))來起始為使用者產生解決方案的程序。在經由下拉式選單輸入選擇之後，側邊建置器呈現cable assembly解決方案連同對額外資訊(例如，pin mapping(接腳映射)、assembled length、latching option(閂鎖選項))之提示以界定所要解決方案。More specifically, FIG. 67 is an example high speed cable assembly side mounter UI, in accordance with an embodiment. The side builder UI prompts the user to select or specify one or more cable assembly product related parameters (eg, category, family, interchange type, pitch, positions, signal type) )) to initiate a program that produces a solution for the user. After entering the selection via the drop-down menu, the side builder presents the cable assembly solution along with hints for additional information (eg, pin mapping, assembled length, latching option) to define the desired solution.
在輸入或選擇額外選項之後，側邊建置器呈現解決方案頁面，其包括cable assembly解決方案連同使用者可藉以存取或下載cable assembly解決方案之額外資訊或資料且請求樣本的連結。圖68為根據一實施例的實例側邊建置器解決方案頁面，其呈現cable assembly解決方案及至該解決方案之額外資訊的連結。實施例之額外資訊包括如本文中所描述之Specs Kit以及discrete wire解決方案之眾多不同模型及製圖，但不限於此。圖69A至圖69E展示根據一實施例的經由cable assembly解決方案頁面上之連結存取的實例資料。圖70展示根據一實施例的經由cable assembly解決方案頁面上之連結存取的cable assembly解決方案之實例技術規格。After entering or selecting additional options, the Side Builder presents a solution page that includes a cable assembly solution along with additional information or materials that the user can access or download the cable assembly solution and request a link to the sample. 68 is an example side implementation in accordance with an embodiment.The solution page, which presents a link to the cable assembly solution and additional information to the solution. Additional information for embodiments includes many different models and drawings of the Specs Kit and discrete wire solutions as described herein, but is not limited thereto. 69A-69E show example material via a linked access on a cable assembly solution page, in accordance with an embodiment. Figure 70 shows an example technical specification of a cable assembly solution via a linked access on a cable assembly solution page, in accordance with an embodiment.
側邊建置器cable assembly解決方案頁面亦呈現cable assembly解決方案之模擬資料連同用以啟動Simulator之圖示(「Launch Full Simulator(啟動全模擬器)」)，如本文中詳細描述。另外，亦提供用於聯繫Samtec代表之連結。The side mount cable assembly solution page also presents simulation data for the cable assembly solution along with a graphical representation for launching the Simulator ("Launch Full Simulator"), as described in detail herein. In addition, links to the Samtec representative are also provided.
如本文中所描述，Solutionator側邊列工具包括眾多執行個體，其中Solutionator之各執行個體通常對應於一產品集合。具體而言，除Solutionator側邊列(「Solutionator」)及混合側邊建置器外，Solutionator執行個體亦包括RF Solutionator及Acclimate Solutionator。As described herein, the Solutionator sidebar tool includes a number of execution individuals, where each execution individual of the Solutionator typically corresponds to a collection of products. Specifically, in addition to the Solutionator side column ("Solutionator") and the hybrid side builder, the Solution Executive entity also includes the RF Solutionator and the Acclimate Solutionator.
更具體而言，RF Solutionator供應用於RF interconnect之設計指導，當使用者在RF類別中選擇產品時，可購自Samtec之組合由RF Solutionator顯著減少。此決策將呈現給使用者之組件選項減少至僅RF相關組件，且實施例使用RF Solutionator作為至Samtec之銷售渠道(以報價形式)及RF類別中之產品之免費樣本的實體進入點。因此，RF Solutionator包括許多定製零件、纜線長度及已經篩選以僅包括RF相關零件及零件組配的其他非標準Samtec零件組配。此情形允許Samtec經由RF Solutionator供應免費樣本而不會招致過大成本或生產時間，且提供確保產品之選擇的資料集，使得典型使用者可找到在定製組配之狀況下獲得報價或在標準選項之狀況下獲得其解決方案之樣本的可接受起點。More specifically, RF Solutionator supplies design guidelines for RF interconnects, and when a user selects a product in the RF category, the combination available from Samtec is significantly reduced by the RF Solutionator. This decision reduces the component options presented to the user to only RF related components, and the embodiment uses the RF Solutionator as a physical entry point to a free sample of Samtec's sales channels (in the form of quotes) and products in the RF category. Therefore, the RF Solutionator includes many custom parts, cable lengths and has been screened toIncludes only non-standard Samtec part assemblies for RF related parts and part assemblies. This situation allows Samtec to supply free samples via RF Solutionator without incurring excessive cost or production time, and provides a data set that ensures product selection, allowing typical users to find quotes or standard options under custom combinations. An acceptable starting point for obtaining a sample of its solution.
在實例操作中，使用者經由預先指定之路由(例如，http：//www.samtec.com→Connectors/Cable Systems(連接器/纜線系統)→RF Interconnects(RF互連)→50Ohm(50歐姆)/75Ohm(75歐姆)/Original Solutions(原始解決方案)→此等類別內之所有連結)導覽至RF Solutionator。或者，使用者藉由導覽至指定網址(例如，http：//rf.samtec.com)而到達RF Solutionator。自此進入點，RF Solutionator引導使用者進行組配程序。圖71為根據一實施例的RF Solutionator組配程序之流程圖。下文在操作實例之上下文中詳細描述在此實例流程圖中詳述之程序。In the example operation, the user via a pre-designated route (for example, http://www.samtec.com→Connectors/Cable Systems→RF Interconnects→50Ohm (50 ohms) ) /75Ohm (75 ohms) / Original Solutions (all links in these categories) to the RF Solutionator. Alternatively, the user arrives at the RF Solutionator by navigating to a specified web address (eg, http://rf.samtec.com). From this point of entry, the RF Solutionator guides the user through the assembly process. Figure 71 is a flow diagram of an RF Solutionator assembly procedure in accordance with an embodiment. The procedures detailed in the flowchart of this example are described in detail below in the context of an operational example.
實施例之RF Solutionator包括用於50Ohm及75Ohm系統之選項，此係因為此等選項為RF工業中最常見的，然而，替代實施例可包括具有替代阻抗之系統。另外，將實施例中之樣本的最大纜線長度設定為一(1)公尺，以便最小化樣本生產成本，但實施例不限於此。歸因於樣本之複雜性，亦可自初始供應物中省略諸如ganged(成組)、connector/RF combinations(連接器/RF組合)及extremely high-density(極高密度)選項之一些較少商品化解決方案，但替代實施例可包括此等解決方案。The RF Solutionator of the embodiment includes options for 50 Ohm and 75 Ohm systems because these options are the most common in the RF industry, however, alternative embodiments may include systems with alternative impedances. Further, the maximum cable length of the sample in the embodiment is set to one (1) meter in order to minimize the sample production cost, but the embodiment is not limited thereto. Due to the complexity of the sample, some fewer items such as ganged, connector/RF combinations, and extreme high-density options may be omitted from the initial supply. Solution,However, alternative embodiments may include such solutions.
圖72為根據一實施例的用於開始RF Solutionator之解決方案組配程序的實例UI。RF Solutionator之此實例UI頁面為增加RF Solutionator導致新導程(lead)之可能性的逐步程序之進入點。UI包括以下連結中之一或多者：返回至Samtec.com首頁之頁首連結；直接至Samtec.com上之RFsystems頁面的頁首連結；用以將反饋提供至網路小組之反饋連結；用以經由聊天直接聯絡RF工程師之頁首連結；包含用以直接聯繫Samtec之電話號碼的頁尾連結。72 is an example UI of a solution assembly procedure for starting an RF Solutionator, in accordance with an embodiment. This instance UI page of the RF Solutionator is the entry point for a step-by-step procedure that increases the likelihood that the RF Solutionator will result in a new lead. The UI includes one or more of the following links: return to the top link on the Samtec.com homepage; go directly to the top of the RFsystems page on Samtec.com; use the feedback link to provide feedback to the web team; Contact the RF engineer's top link directly via chat; include a link to the end of the phone number to directly contact Samtec.
實施例之RF Solutionator程序中的第一步驟涉及使用者使用阻抗自解決方案之全集篩選選擇。使用者藉由選擇系統之阻抗額定值(50或75歐姆)來進行篩選。由此，僅在最終結果集合中考慮帶有選定阻抗之產品。The first step in the RF Solutionator program of an embodiment involves the user using a full set of impedance self-solution screening options. The user screens by selecting the impedance rating of the system (50 or 75 ohms). Thus, products with selected impedances are only considered in the final result set.
在選定阻抗之情況下，使用者接著移至第二步驟(RF纜線系統組配)，其中其將末端選項界定為其系統之插孔或插頭、纜線類型及樣式以及纜線長度。圖73為根據一實施例的用於RF Solutionator之RF cable system組配程序的實例UI。在此系統組配步驟處呈現之UI包括基於使用者選擇而變化之Samtec產品的代表性影像。此等代表性影像包括足以向使用者提供對解決方案之理解的細節，同時亦具有足夠一般性以便不會令使用者困惑。此逼真方法允許在整個RF Solutionator上對產品進行清楚圖形表示。除在此UI上呈現之組件選擇控制項外，此系統組配步驟亦包括在使用者需要關於纜線供應物之更多資訊的情況下至纜線圖表之連結(在「Cable(纜線)」面板上之「What are these(此等為何纜線)？」)。圖74為根據一實施例的回應於啟動資訊連結而呈現之實例纜線細節圖表。With the impedance selected, the user then moves to a second step (RF cable system assembly) where it defines the end options as the jack or plug of the system, the cable type and style, and the cable length. Figure 73 is an example UI of an RF cable system assembly procedure for an RF Solutionator, in accordance with an embodiment. The UI presented at this system assembly step includes representative images of Samtec products that vary based on user selection. Such representative images include details sufficient to provide the user with an understanding of the solution, while also being sufficiently general so as not to confuse the user. This realistic approach allows for a clear graphical representation of the product throughout the RF Solutionator. In addition to the component selection controls presented on this UI, this system assembly step also includes a cable chart where the user needs more information about the cable supply.Link ("What are these?" on the "Cable" panel). Figure 74 is a detailed diagram of an example cable presented in response to activating an information link, in accordance with an embodiment.
在此第二步驟中由使用者作出之選擇為創新的，此係因為其不需要線性的左至右選擇程序。實情為，RF Solutionator允許選擇系統之組件，而不管該組件為纜線抑或連接器，且根據該選擇來篩選剩餘組件選項。因為並不強制使用者首先選取特定選項，所以此選擇提供設計選項之靈活性。The choice made by the user in this second step is innovative because it does not require a linear left to right selection procedure. In fact, the RF Solutionator allows the selection of components of the system, whether the component is a cable or a connector, and filters the remaining component options based on this selection. This option provides flexibility in design options because the user is not forced to select specific options first.
當選擇組配選項時，使用者基於其RF系統需要連接至其設計之方式而選取用於第一末端(「End 1(末端1)」面板)之第一連接器選項。使用者可選取jack或plug選項。若使用者首先選取cable type，則將篩選此等選項以進行匹配。When the assembly option is selected, the user selects the first connector option for the first end ("End 1" panel) based on how the RF system needs to be connected to its design. Users can choose the jack or plug option. If the user first selects the cable type, these options will be filtered for matching.
關於纜線選擇，使用者自包括double ended(雙端)、strip and tin(剝離及錫)以及blunt cut(鈍切)之三個纜線樣式(「Cable」面板)中選擇。針對在各末端上具有RF連接器之纜線來選擇double-ended選項。針對在一個末端上具有RF連接器且在另一末端上曝露導體之小部分的纜線選擇的strip and tin選項允許使用者在不必自己剝開纜線之情況下附接其自身之連接器。針對在一個末端上具有RF連接器且在另一末端上具有RF電線之整齊切口的纜線選擇blunt cut選項，且該選項常常在添加另一連接器之前用於纜線路由目的。Regarding cable selection, the user selects from three cable styles ("Cable" panels) including double ended, strip and tin, and blunt cut. Select the double-ended option for the cable with the RF connector on each end. The strip and tin option for cable selection with an RF connector on one end and a small portion of the conductor exposed on the other end allows the user to attach their own connector without having to strip the cable by itself. The blunt cut option is selected for cables that have an RF connector on one end and a neat cutout of the RF wire on the other end, and this option is often used for cable routing purposes before adding another connector.
在double-ended系統中，使用者基於其RF系統需要連接至其設計之方式而選取用於第二末端(「End 2(末端2)」面板)之第二連接器選項。使用者可選取jack或plug選項。若使用者首先選取cable type，則將篩選此等選項以進行匹配。In a double-ended system, the user selects a second connector option for the second end ("End 2" panel) based on how the RF system needs to be connected to its design. Users can choose the jack or plug option. If the user first selects the cable type, these options will be filtered for matching.
RF Solutionator之系統組配步驟提供藉由允許添加板級配合來建立完全系統的能力。因而，RF Solutionator克服習知組配工具中之缺點，該習知組配工具僅供應建置纜線之能力但不考慮將纜線連接至板所需之連接器。The RF Solutionator system assembly step provides the ability to build a complete system by allowing the addition of board-level mates. Thus, the RF Solutionator overcomes the shortcomings of conventional assembly tools that only supply the ability to build a cable but do not consider the connectors needed to connect the cable to the board.
系統組配步驟之後接著為第三步驟(確認)。圖75為根據一實施例的用於RF Cable System確認之實例UI。在確認時，向使用者呈現根據其在阻抗選擇及系統組配步驟期間之選擇而組配的系統之原型表示。若可用，則向使用者呈現定價，以及在先前步驟中選擇之纜線選項及末端選項。亦向使用者呈現檢視製圖(「View Engineering Drawing(檢視工程製圖)」)之選項，且繼續獲得報價、樣本或聯繫銷售商以購買其系統(例如，「Get Samples,Quote and Buy(獲得樣本、報價且購買)」、「Get Samples,Simulate,Quote and Buy(獲得樣本、模擬、報價且購買)，等等」)及少數其他小組配選項。The system assembly step is followed by a third step (confirmation). Figure 75 is an example UI for RF Cable System validation, in accordance with an embodiment. Upon validation, the user is presented with a prototype representation of the system that is assembled according to their selection during the impedance selection and system assembly steps. If available, the user is presented with pricing, as well as the cable options and end options selected in the previous steps. The user is also presented with the option to view the drawing ("View Engineering Drawing") and continue to receive quotes, samples or contact the vendor to purchase their system (eg "Get Samples, Quote and Buy", Quotation and purchase), "Get Samples, Simulate, Quote and Buy, etc.") and a few other team options.
若定價可用於由使用者組配之零件，則確認UI以標準數量分解增量1-99、100-249、250-499、500-999及1,000-10,000來顯示資訊，但可在替代實施例中使用任何增量。此處可藉由聯繫Samtec來獲得定製體積定價。價格不包括板級配合，但實施例不限於此。If the pricing is available for parts that are assembled by the user, the confirmation UI displays the information in standard number decomposition increments of 1-99, 100-249, 250-499, 500-999, and 1,000-10,000, but may be in an alternate embodiment. Use any increments in . Custom volume pricing can be obtained here by contacting Samtec. Price is notThe board level mating is included, but the embodiment is not limited thereto.
關於纜線總成，向使用者提供Features(特徵)表，其包括其系統組配之準確零件編號以及選定組配選項。Features表以易於讀取方式顯示使用者選擇之選項，其中列出了對零件之描述。雖然習知應用可使用零件編號來標識使用者組配選擇，但Features表包括呈更直觀地向使用者顯示經組配解決方案之描述欄位的細節。With regard to the cable assembly, the user is provided with a Features table that includes the exact part number of the system combination and the selected assembly options. The Features table displays the user-selected options in an easy-to-read manner, with a description of the parts. While conventional applications may use part numbers to identify user group selections, the Features table includes details that show the description fields of the assembled solution more intuitively to the user.
經由Features表向使用者呈現兩個額外的組配選項。在第一選項中，使用者可輸入將應用於纜線總成之定製標籤(「Labels(標籤)」)。作為第二額外選項，使用者可選擇熱收縮顏色(「Heat Shrink(熱收縮)」)(例如，黑色、紅色、綠色、藍色、黃色等)。除Features表之外，亦向使用者呈現包括纜線及末端選項之經組配系統的圖形原型。由此，使用者可藉由選擇所呈現之連結(「View Engineering Drawing」)來在Samtec網站上檢視工程製圖。圖76為根據一實施例的回應於對工程製圖連結之選擇而呈現的實例工程製圖。動態地組配在實施例中呈現之工程製圖，但不限於此。舉例而言，實施例組合組件之兩個或兩個以上工程製圖，以便產生展示所展示之各連接器之尺寸的工程製圖。此幫助使用者藉由在訂購其系統之前查看系統之確切尺寸來確保其設計中存在足夠的空間。Present two additional assembly options to the user via the Features table. In the first option, the user can enter a custom label ("Labels") that will be applied to the cable assembly. As a second additional option, the user can select a heat shrink color ("Heat Shrink") (eg, black, red, green, blue, yellow, etc.). In addition to the Features table, a graphical prototype of the assembled system including the cable and end options is presented to the user. Thus, the user can view the engineering drawings on the Samtec website by selecting the presented link ("View Engineering Drawing"). 76 is an example engineering drawing presented in response to selection of an engineering drawing link, in accordance with an embodiment. The engineering drawing presented in the embodiment is dynamically assembled, but is not limited thereto. For example, an embodiment combines two or more engineering drawings of components to produce an engineering drawing that shows the dimensions of the various connectors shown. This helps the user to ensure that there is enough space in their design by looking at the exact dimensions of the system before ordering its system.
確認UI亦包括在經組配解決方案具有免費樣本之情況下警示使用者之標誌(「Free Sample Available(免費樣本可用)」)。使用此標誌避免了代替用以警示使用者其可獲得免費樣本之最小程度但明顯之方式而在頁面上有解釋免費樣本的過多複本。The Confirmation UI also includes a warning to the user ("Free Sample Available") if the combined solution has a free sample. Use this flag to avoid the use of a warning to alert the userThe minimum but obvious way to get a free sample is to have too many copies of the free sample on the page.
確認UI包括經選擇以使得使用者能夠請求樣本及報價之連結，且提供用於聯繫銷售代表以購買經組配零件之方法。若使用者想要獲得其組配之系統之免費樣本，則其可藉由核取一方塊來請求樣本。亦可要求使用者確認其對樣本之請求。同樣地，使用者可藉由核取所請求方塊來請求其組配之系統的正式報價。使用者鍵入其聯繫資訊以便提供樣本及/或報價細節。提供註解欄位，在該註解欄位中，使用者可鍵入連同樣本或報價請求一起提供至Samtec代表之註解。使用者發送具有其在RF Solutionator程序期間提交之所有資訊的電子郵件(包括其系統細節之PDF附件)，且Samtec代表隨後將關於銷售程序進行跟進。The validation UI includes a selection to enable the user to request a link to the sample and the offer, and a method for contacting the sales representative to purchase the assembled part. If the user wants to obtain a free sample of the system they are assembling, they can request a sample by checking a square. The user may also be asked to confirm their request for the sample. Similarly, the user can request a formal offer for the system they are assembling by checking the requested block. The user types their contact information to provide sample and/or quotation details. A comment field is provided in which the user can type in an annotation provided to the Samtec representative along with the sample or request for quotation. The user sends an email with all the information submitted during their RF Solutionator program (including a PDF attachment to their system details), and the Samtec representative will follow up on the sales process.
Acclimate Solutionator提供密封I/O及面板設計解決方案。實施例包括Acclimate Solutionator，其為獨立於Samtec主網站之漸進的逐步程序，其令使用者集中注意力於選擇完全纜線總成解決方案。更特定而言，Acclimate Solutionator為藉以回應於指定所要解決方案之最少輸入而向使用者提供Full Cable Assembly Solution(完全纜線總成解決方案)之應用程式。Acclimate Solutionator之輸入涉及漸進的逐步程序，該程序產生輸出，該輸出為標準零件編號或定製解決方案設計，經由其可提交對建立之請求，但實施例不限於此。Acclimate Solutionator offers sealed I/O and panel design solutions. Embodiments include theAcclimate Solutionator , which is a progressive step-by-step procedure independent of Samtec's main website, which allows the user to focus on selecting a complete cable assembly solution. More specifically, the Acclimate Solutionator is an application that provides the Full Cable Assembly Solution to the user in response to the minimum input specifying the desired solution. The input to the Acclimate Solutionator involves a progressive step-by-step procedure that produces an output that is a standard part number or custom solution design by which a request for setup can be submitted, but embodiments are not limited thereto.
使用者經由預先指定之路由(例如，http：//www.samtec.com→Homepage→Cable Systems→Panel & I/O(面板及I/O)→Sealed Circular and Rectangular→Design Solutions(並非「Get Solutions」))導覽至Acclimate Solutionator。或者，使用者可藉由轉入http：//sealedIO.samtec.com而到達Acclimate Solutionator。自此進入點，Acclimate Solutionator引導使用者進行組配程序。圖77A至圖77D展示根據一實施例的Acclimate Solutionator程序之流程圖。下文在操作實例之上下文中詳細描述在此等實例流程圖中詳述之程序。The user routes via a pre-designation (for example,Http://www.samtec.com→Homepage→Cable Systems→Panel & I/O→Panelled Circular and Rectangular→Design Solutions (not “Get Solutions”)) to the Acclimate Solutionator. Alternatively, the user can reach the Acclimate Solutionator by going to http://sealedIO.samtec.com. From this point of entry, the Acclimate Solutionator guides the user through the assembly process. 77A-77D show a flow chart of an Acclimate Solutionator program in accordance with an embodiment. The procedures detailed in the flowcharts of these examples are described in detail below in the context of an operational example.
一般而言，將Acclimate Solutionator之導覽元素置放於UI顯示畫面之頂部及底部，選擇準則在中央。可將導覽元素置放於螢幕上任何處，只要共同意圖為推進程序即可。此Acclimate Solutionator中之導覽元素為動態的，且基於由使用者選擇之路徑而改變。In general, place the navigation elements of the Acclimate Solutionator on the top and bottom of the UI display and select the criteria in the center. The navigation elements can be placed anywhere on the screen as long as the common intent is to advance the program. The navigation elements in this Acclimate Solutionator are dynamic and change based on the path selected by the user.
Acclimate Solutionator界定在客戶選擇產品類別「Panel & I/O/Sealed/Design Solutions(面板及I/O/密封/設計解決方案)」時的篩選步驟，此係因為僅將展示彼等相關聯之組件。自此進入點，Acclimate Solutionator使用商業邏輯或規則自動地執行產品系列之額外篩選及分群。Acclimate Solutionator defines the screening steps when customers select the product category "Panel & I/O/Sealed/Design Solutions" because they will only show their associated components. . From this point of entry, Acclimate Solutionator automatically performs additional screening and grouping of product lines using business logic or rules.
實施例之邏輯包括依據Locking Mechanism(鎖定機制)(Bayonet Locking(卡口鎖定)或Threaded Locking(螺紋鎖定))及Shape(形狀)(Circular(圓形)或Rectangular(矩形))之實體特性進行的分群。該邏輯亦避免不改變產品之電氣完整性的可選附加組件。產品中未包括類似Latches(閂鎖)、Guide Posts(導柱)及Packaging(封裝)考慮事項之實體選項，以便向客戶提供相對基本之產品。此產品意欲為客戶之起點，且可在已進行取樣/查詢之後受到組配。The logic of an embodiment includes performing physical properties according to a Locking Mechanism (Bayonet Locking or Threaded Locking) and a Shape (Circular or Rectangular). Grouping. This logic also avoids optional add-ons that do not alter the electrical integrity of the product. The product does not include a similar latches,The physical options of the Guide Posts and Packaging considerations to provide customers with relatively basic products. This product is intended to be the starting point for customers and can be assembled after sampling/inquiry.
另外，該邏輯促進得到最具成本效益的產品(Standards(標準))。非目錄中標準選項為可用的，但非標準供應會導致較長前置時間及無免費樣本。因此，Acclimate Solutionator®之所有篩選/解決方案導致使用一種最終解決方案。In addition, this logic facilitates the most cost-effective products (Standards). Standard options in non-catalogs are available, but non-standard offerings result in longer lead times and no free samples. Therefore, all of the screening/solutions of Acclimate Solutionator® lead to the use of a final solution.
圖78為根據一實施例的Acclimate Solutionator之實例UI。此實例UI為用於基於形狀/鎖定類型之Acclimate解決方案之設計的進入點(本文中亦稱為Step 1(步驟1))。使用者基於如下鎖定機制及形狀來選擇系統：Figure 78 is an example UI of an Acclimate Solutionator, in accordance with an embodiment. This example UI is the entry point for the design of the shape/lock type based Acclimate solution (also referred to herein as Step 1 (step 1)). The user selects the system based on the following locking mechanisms and shapes:
a. Sealed Bayonet Circulars(密封卡口圓形)(本文中詳細描述的Bayonet Path(卡口路徑))。a. Sealed Bayonet Circulars (Bayonet Path detailed in this article).
b. Sealed Threaded Circulars(密封螺紋圓形)(本文中詳細描述的Threaded Path(螺紋路徑))。b. Sealed Threaded Circulars (Threaded Path detailed in this article).
c. Sealed Rectangulars(密封矩形)(本文中詳細描述的Rectangulars Path(矩形路徑))。c. Sealed Rectangulars (Rectangulars Path detailed in this article).
此等路徑中之各者將使用者導向獨特的密封解決方案，而各路徑基於初始選擇而不同(例如，步驟數目，定製等)。此外，各路徑為漸進的，使得選擇程序隨著使用者在程序中進一步前進而逐步地縮減，以致各後續選擇由先前篩選器選擇判定。進行此操作以限制篩選器中之選項，且確保篩選器集合不會導致零個解決方案。在設計程序期間之任何時間，提供使用者可藉以聯絡密封IO專家之聊天選項。聊天選項向Samtec代表提供至由使用者組配之當前設計的連結，但不限於此。Each of these paths directs the user to a unique sealing solution, and each path differs based on the initial selection (eg, number of steps, customization, etc.). In addition, the paths are progressive such that the selection process is progressively reduced as the user progresses further through the program, such that each subsequent selection is determined by a previous filter selection. Do this to limit the options in the filter and ensure that the filter collection does not result in zero solutions. In the design processAt any time during the sequence, the user is provided with a chat option to contact the sealed IO expert. The chat option provides the Samtec representative with a link to the current design that is assembled by the user, but is not limited thereto.
回應於在Step 1選擇Sealed Bayonet Circulars介面，Acclimate Solutionator呈現使用者藉以進一步界定Sealed Bayonet系統之UI。圖79展示根據一實施例的用於界定Sealed Bayonet系統之使用者介面(UI)的實例組件。在此step 2(步驟2)，實施例之Bayonet Path提示使用者開始設計Bayonet System。此路徑為漸進路徑，且構成此程序之選項環環相扣。此實例之UI包括四個(4)區或面板，在其處鍵入選擇。第一區(Panel 1(面板1))詢問使用者以界定第一面板纜線之端接方式。第二區(External Cable(外部纜線))詢問使用者以界定外部纜線之端接及組配方式。Field Termination Kits(現場端接套件)可用作選項，且要求使用者決定其是否想要添加散裝纜線。第三區(Panel 2(面板2))類似於Panel 1輸入，但所呈現之選項基於外部纜線輸入而受限制。In response to the selection of the Sealed Bayonet Circulars interface in Step 1, the Acclimate Solutionator presents the UI that the user further defines for the Sealed Bayonet system. Figure 79 shows example components for defining a user interface (UI) of a Sealed Bayonet system, in accordance with an embodiment. In this step 2 (step 2), the Bayonet Path of the embodiment prompts the user to start designing the Bayonet System. This path is a progressive path and the options that make up this program are interlocking. The UI for this example includes four (4) zones or panels where you type a selection. The first zone (Panel 1) asks the user to define the termination of the first panel cable. The second zone (External Cable) asks the user to define the termination and assembly of the external cable. Field Termination Kits are available as an option and require the user to decide if they want to add a bulk cable. The third zone (Panel 2) is similar to the Panel 1 input, but the options presented are limited based on external cable input.
Acclimate Solutionator之非常獨特的要素為藉由選擇電力遞送方向而自動地判定或篩選連接器性屬的能力。因而，此選項使得使用者能夠基於電力在哪一方向上流動而判定哪一連接器將為插口或端子(例如，將不對Terminal Pins(端子接腳)供電以進行觸摸)。因此，用於界定Sealed Bayone系統、Power Delivery Direction之UI之第四區使得使用者能夠藉由決定電力將在哪一方向上流經連接器而以單次點選來界定連接器性屬。將不對端子連接器供電。圖80為根據一實施例的Sealed Bayonet UI之實例Power Delivery Direction選擇器。A very unique element of the Acclimate Solutionator is the ability to automatically determine or screen connector genus by selecting the direction of power delivery. Thus, this option enables the user to determine which connector will be a jack or terminal based on which side of the power is flowing upward (eg, the Terminal Pins will not be powered for touch). Thus, the fourth zone of the UI used to define the Sealed Bayone system, Power Delivery Direction, enables the user to define the connector genre by a single click by determining which side of the power will flow up through the connector. Will not supply terminal connectorsElectricity. Figure 80 is an example Power Delivery Direction selector for a Sealed Bayonet UI, in accordance with an embodiment.
一般而言，在UI之任何區中選擇任何選項縮減剩餘的可用選擇。舉例而言，使用者選擇External cable的選項判定了可在Panel 2(Board Connector(板連接器))中選擇何內容。若涉及纜線，則大多數選項將需要外部纜線長度輸入，但若不涉及纜線，則Acclimate Solutionator®自動地自UI移除長度輸入方塊。在此步驟期間，UI顯示反映使用者輸入之代表性影像，且界定所作出之選擇。此UI亦包含單位(吋/毫米)轉換器。In general, select any option in any area of the UI to reduce the remaining available choices. For example, the user's option to select the External cable determines what content can be selected in the Panel 2 (Board Connector). If a cable is involved, most options will require an external cable length input, but if no cable is involved, Acclimate Solutionator® automatically removes the length input block from the UI. During this step, the UI displays a representative image reflecting the user input and defines the choices made. This UI also contains a unit (吋/mm) converter.
在Step 2，在UI上供應實體特性及材料作為最終決策。UI藉由展示圖形及尺寸影像(使用者可自其進行選取)來簡化程序。圖81展示根據一實施例的用以指定Sealed Bayonet之殼體大小及材料選擇器的UI之實例組件。藉由此UI，使用者具有決定其是否需要塑膠或金屬產品(「Choose Shell Material(選取殼體材料)」)之能力。另外，使用者選擇纜線末端之大小(「Choose Shell Size(選取殼體大小)」)。此UI呈現視覺圖形及尺寸以幫助使用者，以及呈現接腳組配選項(當選擇「Details(細節)」時)。In Step 2, the physical properties and materials are supplied on the UI as the final decision. The UI simplifies the program by presenting graphics and size images that the user can select from. Figure 81 shows example components of a UI for specifying a Shell size and material selector for Sealed Bayonet, in accordance with an embodiment. With this UI, the user has the ability to determine whether he or she needs a plastic or metal product ("Choose Shell Material"). In addition, the user selects the size of the end of the cable ("Choose Shell Size"). This UI renders the visual graphics and dimensions to assist the user, as well as the presentation of the pin assembly options (when "Details" is selected).
使用Acclimate Solutionator來簡化對接腳計數之選擇。圖82為根據一實施例的用於界定Sealed Bayonet系統接腳計數之實例使用者介面(UI)。一旦在Step 2已選定殼體大小及材料，便可在此Step 3(步驟3)將可用Standard(標準)及Modified(修改)接腳組配提供至使用者。此處連同近似安培值一起顯示帶索引標籤之選項以幫助使用者作出選擇。根據兩個索引標籤(例如，「Standard Lead Styles(標準引線樣式)」及「Modified Lead Styles(修改引線樣式)」)來將實施例之接腳組配分群。若使用者未看到所需接腳計數，則其可點選標示為「selected shell size(選定殼體大小)」之連結，以返回且選取不同殼體大小。在選擇接腳計數後，在UI上以網格形式顯示選定接腳組配之細節。此外，顯示線規及近似Pin Amperage(接腳安培數)以幫助使用者選擇組配。Use the Acclimate Solutionator to simplify the selection of the docking pin count. 82 is an example user interface (UI) for defining a Sealed Bayonet system pin count, in accordance with an embodiment. Once the housing size and material have been selected in Step 2, the available Standard and Modified pin sets can be provided to the user in Step 3 (Step 3). Here together with the approximateThe value of the index together shows the option to index the label to help the user make a choice. The pins of the embodiment are grouped according to two index labels (for example, "Standard Lead Styles" and "Modified Lead Styles". If the user does not see the required pin count, it can be clicked on the link labeled "selected shell size" to return and select a different shell size. After selecting the pin count, the details of the selected pin combination are displayed in a grid on the UI. In addition, the line gauge and approximate Pin Amperage are displayed to help the user select the combination.
在Sealed Bayonet系統UI之實施例中呈現給使用者之最終決策為對其經組配解決方案之Standard或Modified版本之選擇(亦稱為Step 4(步驟4))。圖83為根據一實施例的用於選擇Bayonet System Solution之實例使用者介面(UI)。經由呈現於此UI上之圖示可得到對應於Standard Solution(標準解決方案)及Modified Solution(修改解決方案)之模擬結果。經由本文中詳細描述之Simulator產生及呈現模擬結果。此外，提供Pin Count資訊(例如，接腳計數、組配影像等)以傳達固持器主體內之接腳置放。若自先前UI畫面選擇Standard Solution(Step 3)，則此時不必要作出選擇，此係因為僅呈現Standard Solution。若選擇Modified Solution，則向使用者呈現並列的修改及標準解決方案，以輔助基於價格/樣本/遞送優點作出決策。The final decision presented to the user in the embodiment of the Sealed Bayonet System UI is the selection of the Standard or Modified version of its provisioned solution (also known as Step 4 (Step 4)). Figure 83 is an example user interface (UI) for selecting a Bayonet System Solution, in accordance with an embodiment. Simulation results corresponding to Standard Solution and Modified Solution are obtained via the icons presented on this UI. The simulation results are generated and presented via the Simulator described in detail herein. In addition, Pin Count information (eg, pin counts, assembled images, etc.) is provided to convey pin placement within the holder body. If you select Standard Solution (Step 3) from the previous UI screen, it is not necessary to make a selection at this time, because only Standard Solution is presented. If Modified Solution is selected, a side-by-side modification and standard solution is presented to the user to assist in making decisions based on price/sample/delivery advantages.
圖84為根據一實施例的用於確認及檢查Bayonet System Solution之實例使用者介面(UI)。此時(亦稱為Step 5(步驟5))，Acclimate Solutionator在組配程序中呈現最終畫面，其包括完整組配之圖形一覽連同經設定尺寸之圖形及文字細節。此外，此時供應定製選項。舉例而言，實施例在用於定製請求之快顯畫面中呈現「Plating(電鍍)」及「Keying(鍵鎖)」選項，但實施例不限於此。圖85為根據一實施例的用於Bayonet System Solution之實例Plating Options UI快顯畫面。圖86為根據一實施例的用於Bayonet System Solution之實例Keying Options(鍵鎖選項)UI快顯畫面。Figure 84 is an example user interface (UI) for validating and checking Bayonet System Solution, in accordance with an embodiment. At this time (also known as Step5 (Step 5)), Acclimate Solutionator presents the final screen in the assembly program, which includes a complete set of graphical overviews along with the graphical and textual details of the sized settings. In addition, customization options are available at this time. For example, the embodiment presents "Plating" and "Keying" options in the quick display for customizing the request, but the embodiment is not limited thereto. 85 is an example of a Plating Options UI quick display for Bayonet System Solution, in accordance with an embodiment. 86 is an example of a Keying Options UI quick display for Bayonet System Solution, in accordance with an embodiment.
用於確認及檢查之使用者介面(UI)亦包括用以呈現對應於設計解決方案之組件(例如，Panel 1、External Cable、Panel 2等)之額外細節及圖形的可擴展區段(「Expand Details(擴展細節)」)。圖87為根據一實施例的可擴展區段之實例，該可擴展區段包括用於經組配System Assembly之額外細節及圖形。在此Step 5，亦向使用者呈現用以請求各件總成或特定個別件之樣本及正式報價的選項。在完成Acclimate Solutionator程序後，使用者接收具有其設計的確切細則之電子郵件，且被提供了至經組配解決方案之電子連結。The user interface (UI) for validation and inspection also includes an expandable section for presenting additional details and graphics corresponding to components of the design solution (eg, Panel 1, External Cable, Panel 2, etc.) ("Expand Details (extension details)"). Figure 87 is an illustration of an expandable section that includes additional details and graphics for assembling a System Assembly, in accordance with an embodiment. In Step 5, the user is also presented with the option to request samples of each component or specific individual pieces and a formal offer. Upon completion of the Acclimate Solutionator program, the user receives an email with the exact details of their design and is provided with an electronic link to the assembled solution.
返回至Step 1，參看圖78，現呈現基於使用者對Sealed Threaded Circulars之選擇的另一實例。在Step 2，實施例之Threaded Path藉由提示使用者在USB或Ethernet(乙太網路)之間選擇來提示使用者開始Threaded System之設計。Returning to Step 1, see Figure 78, another example based on the user's choice of Sealed Threaded Circulars is presented. In Step 2, the Threaded Path of the embodiment prompts the user to start the design of the Threaded System by prompting the user to select between USB or Ethernet (Ethernet).
Acclimate Solutionator UI接著向使用者呈現對應的Step 3，其為漸進的路徑，對於該路徑，構成此程序之選項環環相扣。此實例之UI包括三個(3)區或面板，在其處鍵入選擇。第一區(Panel 1)要求使用者界定第一面板纜線之端接方式，且進一步自可用之若干USB/Ethernet版本界定其所要介面。又，Ethernet選擇器提示使用者首先界定纜線大小。第二區(External Cable)提示使用者界定外部纜線之端接及組配方式。Field Termination Kits可用作選項，且提示使用者判定其是否想要添加散裝纜線。第三區(Panel 2)類似於Panel 1選擇，但所呈現之選項基於Panel 1及External Cable面板處之輸入或選擇而受限制。The Acclimate Solutionator UI then presents the user with the corresponding Step 3, which is a progressive path for which the options that make up the program are interlocking. The UI for this example includes three (3) zones or panels where you type the selection. The first zone (Panel 1) requires the user to define the termination of the first panel cable and further define the desired interface from a number of available USB/Ethernet versions. Also, the Ethernet selector prompts the user to first define the cable size. The External Cable prompts the user to define the termination and assembly of the external cable. Field Termination Kits can be used as an option and prompt the user to determine if they want to add a bulk cable. The third zone (Panel 2) is similar to the Panel 1 selection, but the options presented are limited based on the inputs or selections at Panel 1 and the External Cable panel.
在UI之任何區中選擇任何選項會縮減剩餘的可用選擇。舉例而言，使用者選擇External cable的選項判定了可在Panel 2(Board Connector)中選擇何內容。若涉及纜線，則大多數選項使用外部纜線長度輸入，但若不涉及纜線，則Acclimate Solutionator自動地自UI移除長度輸入方塊。在此步驟期間，UI顯示反映使用者輸入且界定所作出之選擇之代表性影像。此UI上亦包含單位(吋/毫米)轉換器。Selecting any option in any area of the UI will reduce the remaining available choices. For example, the user's option to select the External cable determines what content can be selected in the Panel 2 (Board Connector). If a cable is involved, most options use an external cable length input, but if no cable is involved, the Acclimate Solutionator automatically removes the length input block from the UI. During this step, the UI displays representative images that reflect user input and define the choices made. This unit also contains a unit (吋/mm) converter.
在實施例中呈現給使用者之最終決策為對其所要產品之Standard或Modified版本的選擇。若自先前UI畫面選擇Standard Solution(Step 3)，則不必要作出選擇，此係因為不呈現Modified Solution。若選擇Modified Solution，則向使用者呈現並列的修改及標準解決方案，以輔助基於價格/樣本/遞送優點作出決策。The final decision presented to the user in an embodiment is the selection of a Standard or Modified version of the desired product. If Standard Solution (Step 3) is selected from the previous UI screen, it is not necessary to make a selection because the Modified Solution is not presented. If Modified Solution is selected, a side-by-side modification and standard solution is presented to the user to assist in making decisions based on price/sample/delivery advantages.
此時，Acclimate Solutionator呈現最終畫面，其包括完整組配之圖形一覽連同經設定尺寸之圖形及文字細節。At this point, the Acclimate Solutionator presents the final picture, which includes a complete set of graphical overviews along with the graphical and textual details of the sized settings.
在此步驟，亦向使用者呈現用以請求各件總成或特定個別件之樣本及正式報價的選項。在完成Acclimate Solutionator程序後，使用者接收具有其設計的確切細則之電子郵件，且被提供了至經組配解決方案之電子連結。At this step, the user is also presented with the option to request samples of each piece or specific pieces and a formal offer. Upon completion of the Acclimate Solutionator program, the user receives an email with the exact details of their design and is provided with an electronic link to the assembled solution.
返回至Step 1，參看圖78，現呈現基於使用者對Sealed Rectangular介面之選擇的另一實例。在Step 2，實施例之Rectangulars Path藉由提示使用者在USB、Ethernet或Pins/Sockets(接腳/插口)之間選擇來提示使用者開始Threaded System之設計。Returning to Step 1, see Figure 78, another example based on the user's choice of the Sealed Rectangular interface is presented. In Step 2, the Rectangulars Path of the embodiment prompts the user to start the design of the Threaded System by prompting the user to select between USB, Ethernet or Pins/Sockets.
Acclimate Solutionator UI接著向使用者呈現Step 3，其為漸進的路徑，對於該路徑，構成此程序之選項環環相扣。此實例之UI包括三個(3)區或面板，在其處鍵入選擇。第一區(Panel 1)要求使用者界定第一面板纜線之端接方式，且進一步自可用之若干USB/Ethernet版本界定其所要介面。又，Ethernet選擇器提示使用者首先界定纜線大小，且Pin/Socket選擇器呈現組配具有或不具有閂鎖之連接器的選項。第二區(External Cable)要求使用者界定外部纜線之端接及組配方式。Field Termination Kits可用作選項，且要求使用者決定其是否想要添加散裝纜線。第三區(Panel 2)類似於Panel 1選擇，但所呈現之選項基於Panel 1及External Cable面板處之輸入或選擇而受限制。The Acclimate Solutionator UI then presents the user with Step 3, which is a progressive path for which the options that make up the program are interlocking. The UI for this example includes three (3) zones or panels where you type the selection. The first zone (Panel 1) requires the user to define the termination of the first panel cable and further define the desired interface from a number of available USB/Ethernet versions. Again, the Ethernet selector prompts the user to first define the cable size, and the Pin/Socket selector presents the option to assemble a connector with or without a latch. The External Cable requires the user to define the termination and assembly of the external cable. Field Termination Kits are available as an option and require the user to decide if they want to add a bulk cable. The third zone (Panel 2) is similar to the Panel 1 selection, but the options presented are limited based on the inputs or selections at Panel 1 and the External Cable panel.
當使用者在step 2選擇Pin/Socket時，Acclimate Solutionator UI在step 3向使用者呈現額外面板。該額外面板提示使用者在繼續至上文所描述之其他三個面板之前選擇接腳計數。鄰近於各接腳計數選項而呈現連結(「view details(檢視細節)」)，且對此連結之選擇導致呈現細節畫面，其包含對應Sealed Rectangular總成之細節。When the user selects Pin/Socket in step 2, the Acclimate Solutionator UI presents an additional panel to the user in step 3. This additional panel prompts the user to select the pin count before proceeding to the other three panels described above. A link is presented adjacent to each pin count option ("view details"), and the selection of this link results in a detailed view containing details corresponding to the Sealed Rectangular assembly.
在UI之任何區中選擇任何選項縮減剩餘的可用選擇。舉例而言，使用者選擇External cable的選項判定了可在Panel 2(Board Connector)中選擇何內容。若涉及纜線，則大多數選項將要求外部纜線長度輸入，但若不涉及纜線，則Acclimate Solutionator自動地自UI移除長度輸入方塊。在此步驟期間，UI顯示反映使用者輸入之代表性影像，且界定所作出之選擇。此UI上亦包含單位(吋/毫米)轉換器。Select any option in any area of the UI to reduce the remaining available choices. For example, the user's option to select the External cable determines what content can be selected in the Panel 2 (Board Connector). If a cable is involved, most options will require an external cable length input, but if no cable is involved, the Acclimate Solutionator automatically removes the length input block from the UI. During this step, the UI displays a representative image reflecting the user input and defines the choices made. This unit also contains a unit (吋/mm) converter.
在實施例中呈現給使用者之最終決策為對其所要產品之Standard或Modified版本的選擇。若自先前UI畫面選擇Standard Solution(Step 3)，則不必要作出選擇。若選擇Modified Solution，則向使用者呈現並列的修改及標準解決方案，以輔助基於價格/樣本/遞送優點作出決策。The final decision presented to the user in an embodiment is the selection of a Standard or Modified version of the desired product. If Standard Solution (Step 3) is selected from the previous UI screen, it is not necessary to make a selection. If Modified Solution is selected, a side-by-side modification and standard solution is presented to the user to assist in making decisions based on price/sample/delivery advantages.
此時，Acclimate Solutionator呈現最終畫面，其包括完整組配之圖形一覽連同經設定尺寸之圖形及文字細節。At this point, the Acclimate Solutionator presents the final picture, which includes a complete set of graphical overviews along with the graphical and textual details of the sized settings.
在此步驟，亦向使用者呈現用以請求各件總成或特定個別件之樣本及正式報價的選項。在完成Acclimate Solutionator程序後，使用者接收具有其設計的確切細則之電子郵件，且被提供了至經組配解決方案之電子連結。At this step, the user is also presented with the option to request samples of each piece or specific pieces and a formal offer. After completing the Acclimate Solutionator program, the user receives the exact details of their design.Email and is provided with an electronic link to the combined solution.
實施例之Acclimate Solutionator包括提供對由使用者組配之Cable Assembly之即時模擬的Simulator。Simulator考慮纜線長度、接腳大小/安培數及端接法，且接著判定解決方案可處置之最大載流容量。在螢幕上以圖形表示來展示由模擬產生之所有值。由於所表示之資料及擷取方法皆為獨特的，因此可發生螢幕變化。本文中詳細描述Simulator。The Acclimate Solutionator of the embodiment includes a Simulator that provides an instant simulation of the Cable Assembly assembled by the user. The Simulator considers cable length, pin size/amperage, and termination methods, and then determines the maximum current carrying capacity that the solution can handle. A graphical representation of all values produced by the simulation is shown on the screen. Screen changes can occur because the information and methods of capture are unique. The Simulator is described in detail in this article.
實施例之Solutionator包括如本文中參考Solutionator之各種執行個體而描述之Simulator或至Simulator之耦接。Simulator包含在不需要手上實體地具有產品以供測試的情況下供使用者存取由Solutionator產生的解決方案之即時模擬資料的工具。實施例之Simulator為僅在Samtec.com上提供的線上工具，以使得工程師能夠產生對藉由Solutionator組配之解決方案之電氣特性的即刻理解。Simulator呈現解決方案之電氣特性的詳細資訊，而不需要使用者定位及解密可能或可能不涵蓋給定電氣情形之準確特性的複雜測試報告，或甚至不需要在知曉產品是否將在給定應用中起作用之前在手上具有實體產品。The Solution of an embodiment includes a Simulator or a coupling to the Simulator as described herein with reference to various execution entities of the Solution. Simulator includes tools for users to access real-time simulation data of solutions generated by Solutionator without the need to physically have products for testing. The Simulator of the embodiment is an online tool provided only on Samtec.com to enable engineers to generate an immediate understanding of the electrical characteristics of the solution assembled by the Solutionator. The Simulator presents detailed information on the electrical characteristics of the solution without requiring the user to locate and decrypt complex test reports that may or may not cover the exact characteristics of a given electrical situation, or even knowing if the product will be in a given application. Have a physical product on hand before it works.
將實施例之Simulator作為另一應用程式(例如，Solutionator)之組件及/或作為獨立應用程式來加以存取，但不限於此。當(例如)作為另一應用程式(類似Solutionator)之組件來加以存取時，使用者首先組配解決方案，且接著選擇由Solutionator連同解決方案一起呈現之「Simulate(模擬)」圖示或按鈕，以便模擬解決方案之效能。圖88為根據一實施例的實例Solutionator UI畫面，其展示連同對Simulator之存取(「Simulate Performance(模擬效能)」)一起呈現的解決方案。選擇Simulator圖示令使用者進入Simulator，其中在Simulation中組配解決方案之零件編號。The Simulator of the embodiment is accessed as a component of another application (eg, a Solution) and/or as a stand-alone application, but is not limited thereto. When accessed, for example, as a component of another application (like a Solution), the user first assembles the solution and then selects the "Simulate" that is presented by the Solution together with the solution.Simulate or icon to simulate the effectiveness of the solution. Figure 88 is an example Solution Operator UI screen showing a solution presented along with access to the Simulator ("Simulate Performance"), in accordance with an embodiment. Select the Simulator icon to get the user into the Simulator, where the solution part number is assembled in Simulation.
Simulator向使用者呈現對應的經組配解決方案之眾多操作特性。此外，Simulator使得使用者能夠改變操作環境之選擇特性(例如，溫度、電流等)以用於對解決方案執行模擬。圖89為根據一實施例的Simulator之實例輸出，其展示經組配解決方案之模擬操作特性。經由SealedIOSolutionator(例如，參見URL：http：//sealedio.samtec.com)存取此特性實例，但實施例不限於此。眾多其他實例可用於由Solutionator提供之解決方案。此實例實施例(例如，SealedIOSolutionator)之Simulator於強制回應彈出視窗中進行顯示，以便避免中斷使用者的零件組配流程，但不限於此。The Simulator presents the user with numerous operational features of the corresponding assembled solution. In addition, the Simulator enables the user to change the selected characteristics of the operating environment (eg, temperature, current, etc.) for performing simulations on the solution. Figure 89 is an example output of a Simulator showing the simulated operational characteristics of the assembled solution, in accordance with an embodiment. This property instance is accessed via a SealedIOSolutionator (see, for example, the URL: http://sealedio.samtec.com), but the embodiment is not limited thereto. Numerous other examples are available for solutions provided by the Solutionator. The Simulator of this example embodiment (eg, SealedIOSolutionator) is displayed in a forced response pop-up window to avoid interrupting the user's part assembly process, but is not limited thereto.
作為上文針對SealedIOSolutionator描述之Simulator存取的替代例，圖90為根據一實施例的用於存取Integrated Cable Solutionator之Simulator的UI之實例呈現。Integrated Cable Solutionator使得使用者能夠組配如本文中詳細描述之高速纜線解決方案(例如，參見http：//www.samtec.com/cable-systems/high-speed/assemblies.aspx)。當使用者在Integrated Cable Solutionator中選擇Launch Full Simulator圖示時，呈現包括full Simulator且使得使用者能夠選擇或改變(僅列舉幾項)輸入參數、存取串擾、插入損失及眼圖(Eye Diagram)之UI。As an alternative to the Simulator access described above for the SealedIOSolutionator, FIG. 90 is an example representation of a UI for accessing an Integrator of an Integrated Cable Solutionator, in accordance with an embodiment. The Integrated Cable Solutionator enables users to assemble high speed cable solutions as described in detail herein (see, for example, http://www.samtec.com/cable-systems/high-speed/assemblies.aspx). When the user selects the Launch Full Simulator icon in the Integrated Cable Solutionator, the presentation includes full Simulator and makesThe user can select or change (just a few) the UI of the input parameters, access crosstalk, insertion loss, and Eye Diagram.
圖91為根據一實施例的Full Simulator之實例呈現，Full Simulator為integrated Cable Solutionator之特徵。此實例之High-Speed Cable Simulator顯示於新視窗中，此係因為輸出相對更複雜，但不限於此。此UI使得使用者能夠使用核取方塊及下拉式選單來切換設計解決方案之各不同組件，藉此使得使用者能夠判定完整解決方案之各組件之個別影響。91 is an example representation of a Full Simulator, which is a feature of an integrated Cable Solutionator, in accordance with an embodiment. The High-Speed Cable Simulator for this example is displayed in a new window because the output is relatively more complex, but not limited to this. This UI enables the user to switch between the various components of the design solution using the checkbox and drop down menus, thereby enabling the user to determine the individual impact of the various components of the complete solution.
Simulator使得使用者能夠經由UI(例如，Simulator UI之左側對應於SealedIO版本，Simulator UI之頂部對應於High Speed Cable版本)容易地輸入測試條件，且作為回應，被呈現包含模擬結果之輸出顯示畫面。亦連同模擬結果一起顯示包括零件編號之測試條件。UI亦包括儲存及/或列印輸出以及聯繫Samtec代表尋求支援之選項。The Simulator enables the user to easily enter test conditions via the UI (eg, the left side of the Simulator UI corresponds to the SealedIO version, the top of the Simulator UI corresponds to the High Speed Cable version), and in response, is presented with an output display containing simulation results. The test conditions including the part number are also displayed along with the simulation results. The UI also includes options for storing and/or printing output and contacting Samtec representatives for support.
如本文中所描述，亦將Simulator作為獨立應用程式來加以存取。在此實施例中，使用者藉由導覽至經由網頁呈現之對應UI來存取Simulator，經由UI鍵入零件編號或一或多個操作參數，且檢視對應於操作參數之Simulator結果。Simulator之此版本亦使得使用者能夠選擇或改變應用程式內之Simulation之要素(例如，纜線長度，連接器末端等)。As described in this article, the Simulator is also accessed as a standalone application. In this embodiment, the user accesses the Simulator by navigating to the corresponding UI presented via the web page, typing the part number or one or more operational parameters via the UI, and viewing the Simulator results corresponding to the operational parameters. This version of the Simulator also allows the user to select or change the elements of the simulation within the application (eg cable length, connector end, etc.).
使用者可藉由點選邀請使用者試用Solutionator設計工具之「Introducing the Solutionator(介紹Solutionator)」圖示(在Samtec首頁上)上之任何處來採用自Samtec首頁至上文所描述之產品頁面中的任一者的替代路由。點選該圖示令使用者登陸Solutionator頁面，其呈現關於各對應產品可用之一或多個Solutionator執行個體。實施例之Solutionator頁面包括至供應Solutionator執行個體之各產品頁面的熱連結。然而，替代實施例可包括至一或多個產品頁面之其他電子路徑或連結。The user can click on the "Introducing the Solutionator" to invite the user to try the Solutionator design tool.The Solutionator) icon (on the Samtec homepage) uses alternate routes from any of the Samtec homepages to the product pages described above.

一般而言，在實施例中Solutionator UI使用帶圓圈之詞及文字來呈現產品之類別，以突出顯示「大桶」的產品類別清單。因而，Solutionator建立表示一萬億個以上零件編號排列的相對清楚或簡化之呈現。此外，在實施例之介面中使用的措辭對應於對應列印目錄中之措辭，藉此使呈現更為無縫，且輔助先前經由目錄搜尋組件之使用者，但實施例不限於此。Solutionator產品類別呈現亦使用對應於各種產品類別之方塊，且該等方塊包括與對應列印目錄之彼等影像類似或相同的等角影像。圖102為根據一實施例的對應於「Connectors」產品類別之實例Solutionator呈現。圖103為根據一實施例的對應於「Cable Systems」產品類別之實例Solutionator呈現。In general, in the embodiment, the Solutionator UI uses circled words and text to present the category of the product to highlight the list of product categories for the "bucket." Thus, the Solution establishes a relatively clear or simplified representation of the arrangement of more than one trillion part numbers. Moreover, the phrase used in the interface of the embodiment corresponds to the wording in the corresponding print directory, thereby making the presentation more seamless and assisting the user who previously searched for the component via the directory, but the embodiment is not limited thereto. The Solutionator product category presentation also uses blocks corresponding to various product categories, and the blocks include isometric images that are similar or identical to their respective images in the corresponding print directory. Figure 102 is an illustration of a Solution Operator presentation corresponding to a "Connectors" product category, in accordance with an embodiment. Figure 103 is a diagram corresponding to "Cable Systems" according to an embodiment.The example of the product category is presented by the Solutionator.
另外，Solutionator呈現與色彩或色彩背景相關聯之產品類別，以便改良關聯性(例如，Connectors對應於橙色，Cables對應於紫色，Optics and Sealed I/O cables(光學器件及密封I/O纜線)對應於綠色，RF products(RF產品)(纜線及連接器)對應於灰色，等等)。如本文中所描述，由Solutionator使用之產品類別/色彩關聯性對應於對應列印目錄中之產品類別/色彩關聯性，但實施例不限於此。In addition, the Solutionator presents product categories associated with color or color backgrounds to improve relevance (eg, Connectors correspond to orange, Cables correspond to purple, Optics and Sealed I/O cables) Corresponding to green, RF products (cables and connectors) correspond to gray, etc.). As described herein, the product category/color relevance used by the Solutionator corresponds to the product category/color association in the corresponding print directory, but embodiments are not limited thereto.
Solutionator產品類別呈現亦使用方塊或區塊，其具有與對應列印目錄之彼等影像相同的等角影像，具有色彩背景以改良關聯性。經由使用不易察覺之邊緣陰影來使區塊「彈出」，且使用不同色彩字型、不同大小字型及/或不同字型使眼睛僅關注產品呈現之最相關的區別特徵，但實施例不限於此。圖104為根據一實施例的對應於「Mezzanine」產品之另一實例Solutionator呈現。The Solutionator product category presentation also uses squares or blocks that have the same isometric image as their respective images of the corresponding print directory, with a color background to improve relevance. By popping the block "without imperceptible edge shadows, and using different color fonts, different size fonts, and/or different fonts, the eye only focuses on the most relevant distinguishing features of the product presentation, but embodiments are not limited this. Figure 104 is another example of a Solutionator presentation corresponding to a "Mezzanine" product, in accordance with an embodiment.
圖105為根據一實施例的對應於「Q Strip High Speed Interconnects」產品之實例Solutionator介面頁面。對於此產品實例且考慮上文關於經組配以使使用者集中注意力之Solutionator呈現的描述，如本文中所描述來突出顯示各產品之產品識別符(例如，「QSH」、「QTH」、「QTE」等)，此係因為當與大量技術術語比較時，使用者更需要記住此等識別符(例如，「QSH」與對應技術描述「0.5mm Q-strip high speed ground plane socket strip(0.5mm Q條帶高速接地平面插口條帶)比較；該描述在使用者首次遇到其時為有用的，但隨著名稱「QSH」變成由客戶主要使用以參考產品之關鍵零件名稱時變得相關性不大)。Figure 105 is an example Solution Operator interface page corresponding to a "Q Strip High Speed Interconnects" product, in accordance with an embodiment. For this product example and considering the above description of the Solutionator presentation that is assembled to focus the user, the product identifiers for each product are highlighted as described herein (eg, "QSH", "QTH", "QTE", etc., because users need to remember these identifiers when compared with a large number of technical terms (for example, "QSH" and corresponding technical description "0.5mm Q-strip high speed ground plane socket strip( 0.5mm Q strip with high speed ground plane socket strip) comparison; this description is useful when the user first encounters itHowever, it became less relevant when the famous "QSH" became the key part name used by the customer to refer to the product.
繼續涉及QSH產品之實例，一旦使用者已選擇且導覽至QSH系列之資訊(自Solutionator之「Q Strip High Speed Interconnects」介面)，Solutionator便移除任何外來擾亂(而非以資訊淹沒使用者)使得使用者得以獲得廣泛範疇的所有可用類別之資訊。圖106為根據一實施例的對應於「QSH」系列之實例Solutionator呈現。Continuing with the QSH product example, once the user has selected and navigated to the QSH series of information (from the Solution Strip's "Q Strip High Speed Interconnects" interface), the Solution removes any external disturbances (rather than flooding the user with information) This allows users to access information on all available categories in a wide range of categories. Figure 106 is an illustration of an example Solution present corresponding to the "QSH" series, in accordance with an embodiment.
Solutionator令使用者能夠在不導覽離開當前頁面之情況下請求與產品有關之額外資訊(例如，對應於QSH系列之目錄頁面、詳細報告等)。Solutionator使用新視窗或索引標籤快顯畫面呈現所請求資訊，藉此保持使用者停留在請求啟動所來自之頁面(例如，QSH系列頁面)。圖107為根據一實施例的實例Solutionator介面(「QSH series」)，其具有顯示額外資訊之快顯視窗。Solutionator回應於使用者將游標懸停於系列頁面上之「series」連結中的任一者上而呈現快顯視窗，且該快顯視窗顯示(例如)可能配合零件之影像，但實施例不限於此。The Solutionator allows the user to request additional information about the product without having to navigate away from the current page (for example, corresponding to the QSH series of catalog pages, detailed reports, etc.). The Solutionator uses the new window or index tab to quickly display the requested information, thereby keeping the user stuck on the page from which the request was initiated (eg, the QSH series page). Figure 107 is a diagram of an example Solution Operator interface ("QSH series") with a pop-up window displaying additional information, in accordance with an embodiment. The Solutionator renders a pop-up window in response to the user hovering the cursor over any of the "series" links on the series page, and the pop-up window displays, for example, an image that may fit the part, but embodiments are not limited this.
參看「series」頁面(例如，圖106之「QSH series」)，Solutionator呈現「series」介面頁面以在頁面之區中包括「類索引標籤」選單。在此實例中，在介面之最左區中呈現索引標籤選單，但不限於此。圖108為根據一實施例的隨「series」介面呈現之實例「類索引標籤」選單。該選單包含包括(但不限於)Series Overview(系列綜述)、Product Tools(產品工具)、Models(型號)、Test Reports(測試報告)、Technical Library(技術程式庫)、Break Out Region(斷裂區)及Quality Information(品質資訊)之選項。組配此等選項以便向使用者呈現多種組件相關資訊(例如，技術、品質等)，但不限於此。Referring to the "series" page (for example, "QSH series" in Figure 106), the Solution presents the "series" interface page to include the "Class Index Tab" menu in the area of the page. In this example, the index tab menu is presented in the leftmost area of the interface, but is not limited thereto. Figure 108 is a diagram of an example "class index tag" menu presented with the "series" interface, in accordance with an embodiment. This menu includes (but is not limited to) Series Overview, ProductOptions for Tools, Models, Test Reports, Technical Library, Break Out Region, and Quality Information. These options are combined to present the user with various component related information (eg, technology, quality, etc.), but are not limited thereto.
至實施例之Solutionator的替代路由為經由圖像搜尋組件。Samtec網站平台包括呈現可購自Samtec之組件解決方案之視覺表示的圖像搜尋功能性。作為圖像搜尋功能性之實例，使用者導覽至Samtec網站之圖像搜尋區域。圖92為根據一實施例的實例圖像搜尋UI。舉例而言，該UI根據類別(例如，Micro Systems(微系統)、Signal Integrity、Rugged Systems(耐用系統)等)來呈現組件，但在替代實施例中可使用替代呈現格式或分群。An alternative route to the Solution of the embodiment is via an image search component. The Samtec website platform includes image search functionality that presents a visual representation of component solutions available from Samtec. As an example of image search functionality, the user navigates to the image search area of the Samtec website. Figure 92 is an example image search UI, in accordance with an embodiment. For example, the UI renders components according to categories (eg, Micro Systems, Signal Integrity, Rugged Systems, etc.), but alternative rendering formats or groups may be used in alternative embodiments.
當使用者將游標移至呈現於圖像搜尋UI上之零件類別上方時，突出顯示彼零件類別，而將所有其他類別解除突出顯示或淡化，(例如)藉由減小彼等其他類別相對於選定類別之對比度。圖93為根據一實施例的實例圖像搜尋UI，其具有回應於置放於類別上之游標而突出顯示的零件類別(「Signal Integrity」)。當使用者藉由用游標在類別上點選來選擇零件類別時，UI顯示彼選定類別之內容的分解圖。圖94為根據一實施例的在選擇零件類別(「Signal Integrity」)之後的實例圖像搜尋UI。When the user moves the cursor over the part category presented on the image search UI, the part category is highlighted, and all other categories are un-highlighted or faded, for example by reducing their other categories relative to The contrast of the selected category. Figure 93 is an example image search UI having a part category ("Signal Integrity") highlighted in response to a cursor placed on a category, in accordance with an embodiment. When the user selects a part category by clicking on the category with the cursor, the UI displays an exploded view of the contents of the selected category. Figure 94 is an example image search UI after selecting a part category ("Signal Integrity"), in accordance with an embodiment.
當使用者將游標移至選定零件類別內之零件子類別上方時，突出顯示彼零件子類別，而將所有其他零件子類別解除突出顯示或淡化，(例如)藉由減小其他所顯示子類別內之零件相對於選定子類別之對比度。圖95為根據一實施例的實例圖像搜尋UI，其具有回應於置放於零件子類別上之游標而突出顯示的零件子類別(「High Speed Cables」)。當使用者用游標選擇零件子類別時，UI顯示根據選定零件子類別而分類之組件的分解圖。圖96為根據一實施例的在選擇零件子類別(「High Speed Cables」)之後的實例圖像搜尋UI。When the user moves the cursor over the sub-category of the part within the selected part category, the sub-category of the sub-part is highlighted, and all other parts areThe subcategories are un-highlighted or faded, for example by reducing the contrast of the parts within the other displayed sub-categories relative to the selected sub-category. Figure 95 is an example image search UI having a sub-category ("High Speed Cables") highlighted in response to a cursor placed on a sub-category of a part, in accordance with an embodiment. When a user selects a sub-category of a part with a cursor, the UI displays an exploded view of the components sorted according to the selected sub-category of the part. Figure 96 is an example image search UI after selecting a sub-category ("High Speed Cables"), according to an embodiment.
當使用者將游標移至顯示於選定零件子類別內之組件上方時，突出顯示彼組件，而將所有其他組件解除突出顯示或淡化，(例如)藉由減小該子類別中之組件相對於選定組件之對比度。圖97為根據一實施例的實例圖像搜尋UI，其具有回應於置放於組件上之游標而突出顯示的組件(「Micro Flyover System」)。當使用者用游標選擇組件時，UI顯示組件快顯視窗，其包含至對應於選定組件之額外資訊之連結。圖98為根據一實施例的回應於對組件(「Micro Flyover System」)之選擇而顯示的圖像搜尋UI之實例組件快顯視窗。When the user moves the cursor over the component displayed within the selected part subcategory, the component is highlighted and all other components are unhighlighted or faded, for example by reducing the components in the subcategory relative to The contrast of the selected component. Figure 97 is an example image search UI having components ("Micro Flyover System") highlighted in response to a cursor placed on a component, in accordance with an embodiment. When the user selects a component with a cursor, the UI displays a component pop-up window that contains a link to additional information corresponding to the selected component. Figure 98 is an example component quick view window of an image search UI displayed in response to selection of a component ("Micro Flyover System"), in accordance with an embodiment.
至選定組件之額外資訊的電子連結包括至Solutionator之連結。選擇Solutionator圖示將使用者輸送至網站平台的包括Solutionator之部分或頁面，該Solutionator對應於選定組件以及選定組件為成員之選定零件子類別(例如，「High Speed Cable Assemblies」)之代表性組件。圖99為根據一實施例的包括Solutionator UI之實例組件頁面。Solutionator之此執行個體根據本文中之Solutionator描述而操作。The electronic link to the additional information for the selected component includes a link to the Solutionator. The Solution icon is selected to convey the user to a portion or page of the website platform including the Solution, which corresponds to the selected component and the selected component is a representative component sub-category of the member (eg, "High Speed Cable Assemblies"). Figure 99 is an example component page including a Solutionator UI, in accordance with an embodiment.surface. This execution entity of the Solutionator operates according to the Solutionator description herein.
如本文中所描述，基於可用Samtec產品詳細目錄及產品選項，可能有超過一萬億個零件組合及組配。根據一項實施例，Solutionator側邊列解決方案經設計以輔助使用者基於有限數目個使用者輸入且使用一系列直觀之下拉式選單來識別零件及組件，該等下拉式選單將可用詳細目錄之巨大陣列縮減至單一產品。Solutionator實施將使用者導引至可行產品選擇之一系列邏輯規則、篩選器及商業規則，如下文進一步描述的。下文描述篩選實施，且該等篩選實施包括邏輯文件、使用者介面考慮事項及寫碼演算法。As described in this article, there may be more than one trillion parts combinations and assemblies based on available Samtec product inventory and product options. According to one embodiment, the Solutionator sidebar solution is designed to assist the user in identifying parts and components based on a limited number of user inputs and using a series of intuitive pull-down menus that will be available in the inventory list. The huge array is reduced to a single product. The Solutionator implements a series of logic rules, filters, and business rules that guide the user to a viable product selection, as further described below. The screening implementations are described below, and such screening implementations include logical files, user interface considerations, and code writing algorithms.
實施例之Solutionator包括Dashboard。圖101為根據一實施例的Solutionator之實例Dashboard。Dashboard提供用於直接存取在Solutionator工作階段期間產生之解決方案的連結。舉例而言，Dashboard包括以下類型之連結中的一或多者，但不限於此：My Saved Parts(所儲存零件)；My Cart(購物車)；Sample Status(樣本狀態)；Order Status(訂單狀態)；Request A Sample(請求樣本)；Place an Order(下訂單)(例如，零件編號等)；Pricing and Delivery(定價及遞送)。The Solution of the embodiment includes a Dashboard. Figure 101 is an example Dashboard of a Solutionator in accordance with an embodiment. Dashboard provides links for direct access to solutions generated during the workflow phase of the Solutionator. For example, Dashboard includes one or more of the following types of links, but is not limited to: My Saved Parts; My Cart; Sample Status; Order Status ); Request A Sample; Place an Order (for example, part number, etc.); Pricing and Delivery.
邏輯文件Logical file
根據一項實施例，應用一系列商業決策以基於商業決策假設/最佳化與隱式及顯式使用者輸入之組合來篩選Samtec產品之可用集合。根據一實施例，應用以下篩選器/規則。According to one embodiment, a series of business decisions are applied to screen for available sets of Samtec products based on a combination of business decision hypothesis/optimization and implicit and explicit user input. According to an embodiment, the following filters/rules are applied.
1. 自Samte首頁，可能有超過一萬億個零件組合/組配。1. From the Samte homepage, there may be more than one trillion parts combination/assembly.
2. 預先篩選器：2. Pre-filter:
a. 根據一實施例，在客戶選取產品類別時已界定一個篩選步驟，亦即，將各側邊列預先篩選至在彼導覽類別範圍內之產品及/或零件系列，且展示與此類產品相關聯之彼等系列。換言之，出現在下拉式篩選器選單中之組配選項對應於預先篩選之產品的集合。此篩選步驟與Samtec網站之導覽邏輯一致，該導覽邏輯提供將使用者導引至產品頁面及對應Solutionator工具之直觀網站地圖策略。導覽至產品頁面將限制Solutionator側邊列解決方案之預先篩選器應用於對應於經特徵化之產品頁面的零件系列。a. According to an embodiment, a screening step is defined when the customer selects a product category, that is, each side column is pre-screened to a product and/or part series within the scope of the navigation category, and the display is such The products are associated with their series. In other words, the combination options that appear in the drop-down filter menu correspond to a collection of pre-screened products. This screening step is consistent with the navigation logic of the Samtec website, which provides an intuitive website mapping strategy that directs the user to the product page and the corresponding Solutionator tool. The Navigate to Product page limits the pre-filters for the Solutionator sidebar solution to the part family that corresponds to the characterized product page.
b. 根據一實施例，使用由銷售人員、工程人員、行政人員及/或其他Samtec決策者提供之商業邏輯自動地完成對產品系列之進一步篩選。根據一實施例，此邏輯可包括：b. According to an embodiment, further screening of the product line is done automatically using business logic provided by sales personnel, engineers, administrators, and/or other Samtec decision makers. According to an embodiment, the logic may include:
i. 避免包括差分對、屏蔽等之技術性更強之產品組配。根據一實施例，「技術性更強」係指極敏感環境所需之應用。此等技術產品組配常常為僅在使用者非常深入產品選擇程序時才需要的較高端選項。由於Solutionator意欲主要為向使用者指出正確方向之高層級銷售工具，因此已消除此等較複雜選項以簡化產品供應。作為實例，差分對及屏蔽可藉由最小化串擾以及來自其他電流之干擾來提高信號完整性。此操作最小化整個連接器系統中之信號損失及降級。然而，Solutionator可為了使用者取消此等技術組配。作為實例，使用者選擇RF系列意謂僅RF纜線為使用者之應用最可能需要的。因此，Solutionator方法假設使用者不需要差分對、雙絞線、屏蔽雙絞線、帶狀IDC纜線、離散電線或電源纜線。i. Avoid more technical product combinations including differential pairs, shielding, etc. According to an embodiment, "more technical" refers to the applications required for extremely sensitive environments. These technical product combinations are often higher-end options that are only needed when the user is deeply involved in the product selection process. Since the Solutionator is intended primarily to present high-level sales tools in the right direction to the user, these more complex options have been eliminated to simplify product availability. As an example, differential pairs and masking can improve signal integrity by minimizing crosstalk and interference from other currents. This operation minimizes signal loss and degradation in the entire connector system. However, the Solution can cancel these technical combinations for the user. As an example, the user chooses the RF series to mean only the RF cable is used.The application of the person is most likely to be needed. Therefore, the Solutionator method assumes that the user does not need a differential pair, twisted pair, shielded twisted pair, ribbon IDC cable, discrete wire or power cable.
ii. 避免不改變產品之電氣完整性的可選附加組件。此等實體選項包括Latches、Guide Posts及Packaging考慮事項，且自產品除去此等選項以便向使用者/客戶提供最基本之產品。此產品意欲為客戶之起點，且可在已進行取樣/查詢之後組配。Ii. Optional add-ons that avoid electrical integrity of the product. These physical options include Latches, Guide Posts, and Packaging considerations, and these options are removed from the product to provide the most basic product to the user/customer. This product is intended to be the starting point for customers and can be assembled after sampling/inquiry.
iii. 已基於電鍍可用性選取/預先篩選最具成本效益之產品。用以建立電子連接器中之電導性的貴金屬為昂貴的。金屬愈厚且使用金屬之處愈多，則必須使用之材料愈多，以便達成所要電鍍等級。因為此情形，所以商業規則已將Solutionator選擇限制至將對大多數應用起作用之標準電鍍等級，且已消除超過大多數客戶將可能能夠將就使用之選項的選項。Iii. The most cost-effective products have been selected/pre-screened based on plating availability. Precious metals used to establish electrical conductivity in electrical connectors are expensive. The thicker the metal and the more metal is used, the more materials must be used in order to achieve the desired plating grade. Because of this situation, business rules have limited the Solutionator selection to the standard plating level that will work for most applications, and have eliminated options that exceed the options that most customers will likely be able to use.
電鍍考慮事項引入複雜的成本考慮事項之集合。所有電連接器係由銅合金製成。存在兩種主要的銅合金金屬：BeCu或鈹銅；及PhosB或磷青銅。兩種銅皆提供優良的銅導電性；然而，兩種材料皆生銹或產生氧化物。因此，對該等材料進行電鍍。首先，可用純銅對此等材料進行電鍍以填補微觀孔隙，且接著用鎳障壁層來進行電鍍。接著，根據一項實施例，用類似錫或錫鉛之非貴金屬或類似金之貴金屬來對此等金屬進行電鍍。錫選項為相對廉價的，但此外，需要更多材料來保護基底金屬，此意謂需要更多法向力來擦拭出清潔表面以進行電接觸。根據替代實施例，使用金。金為貴重金屬，此意謂其不會生銹或氧化。使用金之實施例可電鍍極薄層，此係因為無需太多材料來保護鍍層下方之材料。當然，必須鑒於配合循環來考慮電鍍等級。在各配合及非配合期間，移除小部分鍍層。因此，配合循環不會過快地磨掉鍍層且曝露底層並曝露基底金屬為關鍵的。因此，較小連接器及緊密間距型連接器或提供較低法向力之彼等連接器通常使用金鍍層。基於上文之論述，高級電鍍選項引入較大成本。因此，Solutionator之實施例將Solutionator選擇限制至將對大多數應用起作用之標準電鍍等級。Electroplating considerations introduce a collection of complex cost considerations. All electrical connectors are made of copper alloy. There are two main copper alloy metals: BeCu or beryllium copper; and PhosB or phosphor bronze. Both coppers provide excellent copper conductivity; however, both materials rust or produce oxides. Therefore, the materials are plated. First, the materials can be plated with pure copper to fill the microscopic pores, and then plated with a nickel barrier layer. Next, according to one embodiment, the metals are electroplated with non-noble metals such as tin or tin-lead or precious metals such as gold. The tin option is relatively inexpensive, but in addition, more material is needed to protect the base metal, which means more methods are neededThe force is applied to wipe the clean surface for electrical contact. According to an alternative embodiment, gold is used. Gold is a precious metal, which means it will not rust or oxidize. The use of the gold embodiment can plate very thin layers because it does not require too much material to protect the material under the coating. Of course, the plating grade must be considered in view of the fit cycle. A small portion of the plating is removed during each of the mating and non-mating periods. Therefore, it is critical that the compounding cycle does not wear off the coating too quickly and expose the underlying layer and expose the base metal. Therefore, smaller connectors and closely spaced connectors or connectors that provide lower normal force typically use gold plating. Based on the above discussion, advanced plating options introduce significant costs. Thus, the embodiment of the Solutionator limits the choice of the Solutionator to a standard plating level that will work for most applications.
iv. 自總產品清單省略非目錄中標準選項。此等選項為包括於產品列印文件上但伴隨有額外費用且因此未在目錄頁面上廣告的選項。目錄及產品列印文件兩者皆列出：組配零件之方式、可用於該等零件之選項，及與使用者/購買者相關之許多其他筆技術資訊。差異為目錄頁面經設計為視覺上更悅目的。目錄頁面含有來自列印文件之最相關資訊，且以全色專業地設計以用作行銷推廣品。產品列印文件含有關於產品之最詳細資訊，但在設計時考慮工程師的需求。此等列印文件本質上為技術性極強的，通常為黑色及白色，且包括未在目錄中列出之多種資訊。簡言之，列印文件為工程參考。目錄頁面為銷售參考。根據Solutionator方法之實施例，自經由各別Solutionator執行個體可得到之總產品清單省略包括於產品印刷文件中但不包括於目錄頁面中的標準產品供應物。此方法與選擇產品之最基本起點且繼續進行組配之意圖一致。Iv. Omit the standard options in the non-catalog from the total product list. These options are options that are included on the product print file but are accompanied by additional charges and are therefore not advertised on the catalog page. Both the catalog and the product print file are listed: the way the parts are assembled, the options available for those parts, and many other pen technical information related to the user/purchaser. The difference is that the catalog page is designed to be visually more pleasing. The Catalog page contains the most relevant information from the printed documents and is professionally designed in full color for use as a marketing promotion. The product print file contains the most detailed information about the product, but is designed with the engineer in mind. These printed documents are technically very strong, usually black and white, and include a variety of information not listed in the catalog. In short, the printed document is an engineering reference. The catalog page is a sales reference. According to an embodiment of the Solutionator method, the total product list available from the individual execution through the respective Solution is omitted from the product print file but not includedStandard product offerings included in the catalog page. This method is consistent with the intent to select the most basic starting point for the product and continue to assemble.
v. 根據一實施例，作出最終「商業使用者」決策以在傳回2個以上配合集合解決方案時篩選產品。此決策基本上為「相互最佳適配」決策。此意謂當面對2個以上配合集合時，「商業使用者」方法藉由依據以下各者(包括但不限於)決定哪一零件對於雙方(亦即，使用者/客戶及商業企業)將為相互最佳的而篩除額外匹配組配：Quality(品質)、Gross Profit(毛利)、Simplicity(簡單性)、Price(價格)。作為一個實例，Solutionator選擇之集合可產生大量產品選項(甚至在應用上文所描述之邏輯原則之後)。作為一個實例，剩餘產品之集合可供應一系列接腳長度選項。企業體驗可指示較短接腳較強健且較耐用，而較長接腳傾向於在操作中彎曲且藉此引入品質問題。因此，相對於較長接腳解決方案，推薦較短接腳解決方案。根據替代實施例，可將分數或權重指派至產品類別以便產生計分量度，以作為用於挑選獲勝產品解決方案之手段。v. According to an embodiment, a final "commercial user" decision is made to screen products when more than two matching set solutions are returned. This decision is basically a "best fit" decision. This means that when faced with more than two matching sets, the "commercial user" method determines which parts are for both parties (ie, users/customers and commercial enterprises) by relying on each of the following (including but not limited to) Additional matching combinations will be screened for mutual best: Quality, Gross Profit, Simplicity, Price. As an example, the set of choices of the Solutiontor can produce a large number of product options (even after applying the logic principles described above). As an example, a collection of remaining products can be supplied with a range of pin length options. The enterprise experience may indicate that the shorter pins are stronger and more durable, while the longer pins tend to bend during operation and thereby introduce quality issues. Therefore, a shorter pin solution is recommended over a longer pin solution. According to an alternative embodiment, a score or weight may be assigned to a product category in order to generate a gauge component as a means for selecting a winning product solution.
vi. 根據一實施例，藉由僅提供2至5個篩選器選項以提供至多2個配合集合解決方案為動機，應用所有篩選。根據一項實施例，關於可用篩選器之上限可基於觀察到的終端使用者體驗。此等體驗可指示增加篩選器之數目會增加組配選項，但以使普通使用者困惑沮喪為代價。牢記此結果，Solutionator旨在使用儘可能少的篩選器以獲得解決方案。Vi. According to an embodiment, all screenings are applied by providing only 2 to 5 filter options to provide up to 2 coordinated set solutions. According to an embodiment, the upper limit on the available filters may be based on the observed end user experience. Such experiences may indicate that increasing the number of filters increases the collocation options, but at the expense of the average user being confused. With this in mind, the Solution is designed to use the fewest filters possible to get the solution.
vii. 根據一實施例，一些篩選器將另外互斥之篩選器組合成單一下拉式選單。因為產品複雜性，根據一實施例，零件可具有堆疊高度或定向，但並不具有其兩者。在許多狀況下，已將此等篩選器組合為一個篩選器，此係因為該等篩選器為互斥的。經識別產品之堆疊高度包含自板側互連至配合互連集合之頂部的距離。產品可包含堆疊高度選擇之陣列。然而，當配合集合以水平(共面)或垂直定向互連時，堆疊高度為不相關的。換言之，共面或垂直定向取消了堆疊高度之概念。用於堆疊高度及定向(垂直或共面)之兩個篩選器之呈現將會將互斥之選項集合不必要地剖析成兩個篩選器。因此，Solutionator執行個體之實施例將定向及高度選擇之集合組合成單一篩選器。參見圖40的在給定總計208個接腳之先前輸入的情況下呈現高度及定向選項之互斥且詳盡之集合的高度/定向篩選器之實例4010。Vii. According to an embodiment, some filters combine additional mutually exclusive filters into a single pull down menu. Because of product complexity, according to an embodiment, the parts may have a stack height or orientation, but not both. In many cases, these filters have been combined into one filter because they are mutually exclusive. The stack height of the identified product includes the distance from the board side interconnect to the top of the mating interconnect set. The product can include an array of stack height options. However, when the mating sets are interconnected in a horizontal (coplanar) or vertical orientation, the stack height is irrelevant. In other words, coplanar or vertical orientation eliminates the concept of stack height. The presentation of two filters for stack height and orientation (vertical or coplanar) will unnecessarily split the set of mutually exclusive options into two filters. Thus, the embodiment of the Solution Execution Individual combines the set of orientation and height selection into a single filter. Referring to Figure 40, an example 4010 of a height/orientation filter that presents a mutually exclusive and exhaustive set of height and orientation options given a previous total of 208 pins.
上文所描述之方法僅組合在緊接著列出時將為冗餘的兩個步驟。作為另一實例，若某一連接器具有72個位置，則其不可為單列連接器，因此組合之篩選器值將為72個位置(2列)。在一個篩選器中可仍存在許多此等位置-列數選項，但此「組合方法」消除對接下來呈現接腳篩選器及列數篩選器之需要，此係因為所有列數選項可在呈現互斥選項之完整集合的篩選器中與位置選項組合。The methods described above combine only the two steps that will be redundant immediately following the listing. As another example, if a connector has 72 locations, it cannot be a single-column connector, so the combined filter value will be 72 locations (2 columns). There are still many such position-column options in a single filter, but this "combination method" eliminates the need to render the pin filter and column filter next, because all column options are available in the mutual The filter is combined with the location option in the filter of the full set of options.
圖28展示根據一實施例的側邊列初始資料集之決策。步驟2802包括包含一萬億個以上零件之整個Samtec產品集合。作為一般原理，各步驟表示將整個產品集合篩選至分別與各別產品類別或子類別相關聯或對應於各別產品類別或子類別之較小集合。步驟2804及2806包含分別根據產品類別及子類別應用的篩選。步驟2808、2810自產品集合篩選掉包含不必要之實體選項的零件系列。步驟2812、2814自產品集合篩選掉包含外來技術考慮事項之零件系列。步驟2816、2818自產品集合篩選掉包含非目錄中標準選項之零件系列。步驟2820、2822基於電鍍可用性篩選零件系列以包括最具成本效益之剩餘產品。在上文所描述之程序傳回2個以上配合集合解決方案的情況下，篩選程序應用「商業使用者」方法且執行「相互最佳適配」決策(2824、2826)。根據一實施例，「相互最佳適配」意謂：在面對兩個以上配合集合時，「商業使用者」藉由依據品質、毛利、簡單性及價格排定對於雙方將為相互最佳之零件的優先次序來消除產品選擇。步驟2828表示最終側邊列資料集。28 shows a decision of a side-column initial data set, in accordance with an embodiment. Step 2802 includes the entire Samtec containing more than one trillion partsProduct collection. As a general principle, each step represents screening the entire collection of products to a smaller set that is associated with a respective product category or subcategory or that corresponds to a respective product category or subcategory. Steps 2804 and 2806 contain screenings that are applied according to product categories and subcategories, respectively. Steps 2808, 2810 filter out the series of parts containing unnecessary entity options from the product collection. Steps 2812, 2814 filter out the series of parts containing foreign technical considerations from the product collection. Steps 2816, 2818 filter out the part series containing the standard options in the non-catalog from the product collection. Steps 2820, 2822 screen the part series based on plating availability to include the most cost effective remaining product. In the case where the above described procedure returns more than two matching set solutions, the screening program applies the "commercial user" method and performs the "mutual best fit" decision (2824, 2826). According to an embodiment, "best fit for each other" means that when facing more than two matching sets, the "commercial user" will be optimal for each other by quality, gross profit, simplicity and price. Prioritize parts to eliminate product choices. Step 2828 represents the final sidebar data set.
使用者介面：用以設計配合集合解決方案之篩選器決策User Interface: Filter Decisions to Design a Matching Collection Solution
根據一實施例，Solutionator解決方案以下拉式選單之形式來實施篩選器。當使用者/客戶導覽至產品頁面時，發生對整個Samtec產品庫之篩選，且該篩選對檢視者透通。使用者可接著使用呈現於Solutionator側邊列中之一系列下拉式選單來選擇零件選項。該等下拉式選單用於雙重目的。其基於先前篩選程序顯示可用零件組配，且表示應用於組配集合之剩餘集合的使用者指導之篩選器。使用者指導之篩選器為使用者對零件選項之選擇，其接著被應用以計算組配之剩餘集合及後續篩選器選項。Solutionator執行個體實施使用者介面選單，如下文進一步描述的。According to an embodiment, the Solutionator solution implements the filter in the form of a pull-down menu. When the user/customer navigates to the product page, a screening of the entire Samtec product library occurs and the screening is transparent to the viewer. The user can then select a part option using a series of drop-down menus presented in the Sidebar of the Solutionator. These drop-down menus serve a dual purpose. It displays available part combinations based on previous filters and representsA user-directed filter applied to the remaining sets of the set. The user-directed filter is the user's choice of part options, which are then applied to calculate the remaining set of combinations and subsequent filter options. The Solutionator executes an individual implementation user interface menu, as further described below.
1. 根據一實施例，給定側邊列在螢幕上將具有至少2個篩選器，但不多於5個。1. According to an embodiment, a given side column will have at least 2 filters on the screen, but no more than 5.
a. 五個以上篩選器將Solutionator轉換成產品建置器而非設計解決方案。a. More than five filters convert the Solutionator into a product builder instead of a design solution.
2. 根據一實施例，各產品族系對應於其自身獨特的篩選器集合。彼情形意謂High Speed Board to Board Solutionator側邊列可具有與Discrete Wire Cable建置器相同或不同之篩選器。2. According to an embodiment, each product family corresponds to its own unique set of filters. In other instances, the High Speed Board to Board Solutionator sidebar may have the same or a different filter than the Discrete Wire Cable builder.
a. 根據一實施例，此等篩選器選項由商業使用者基於產品類別而手動挑選為最適用篩選器。a. According to an embodiment, these filter options are manually selected by the business user as the most suitable filter based on the product category.
3. 根據一實施例，各篩選器集合在設計上為漸進的。此情形意謂篩選以自上而下之設定次序進行，且在使用者自頂部選單至頂部選單來選擇選單選項時漸進地應用於組配選項之當前集合。根據一實施例，各後續篩選器由先前篩選器建置。此漸進縮減有目的地限制後續篩選器中之選項，以確保無篩選器集合將導致零個解決方案。3. According to an embodiment, each filter set is progressive in design. This scenario means that the screening is done in a top-down set order and is progressively applied to the current set of collocation options as the user selects the menu option from the top menu to the top menu. According to an embodiment, each subsequent filter is built by a previous filter. This progressive reduction has a purpose to limit the options in subsequent filters to ensure that no filter collection will result in zero solutions.
4. 根據一實施例，若僅一個值可用於給定篩選器，則將預先選定彼篩選器。4. According to an embodiment, if only one value is available for a given filter, the filter will be pre-selected.
5. 對於一些篩選器，給定產品集合可能不具有可用值。對於此等產品，呈現「Standard」之預設選項，且彼「Standard」選擇表示較佳供應之替代方案。作為一個實例，使用者輸入可產生Impedance on High Density Arrays Sidebar(高密度陣列上阻抗側邊列)(500個接腳、17mm堆疊高度、0.050間距)之某一組配，其導致供應標準對非標準組配之最終篩選器。基於上文參考之選擇，向使用者呈現在標準阻抗與85歐姆阻抗之間選取的選項。85歐姆阻抗表示特殊供應物，而標準阻抗未經量測/未經市場化且表示產品之標準屬性。換言之，除替代或較佳選項外，產品亦可包含標準選項。返回至上文所闡述之實例，使用者可產生Impedance on High Density Array(高密度陣列上阻抗)Solutionator側邊列之某一組配(40個接腳、7,00mm堆疊高度、0,80mm間距)，其將可用產品組配縮減至具有標準阻抗供應物之彼等組配。由於屬於經識別產品集合(在此實例中基於先前使用者輸入)之產品僅包含標準阻抗屬性，因此Solutionator用預設「標準」選擇填入阻抗側邊列篩選器。5. For some filters, a given product collection may not have a value available. For these products, the default option of "Standard" is presented, and"Standard" chose an alternative that represents a better supply. As an example, user input can produce a combination of Impedance on High Density Arrays Sidebar (500 pins, 17 mm stack height, 0.050 pitch), which results in a supply standard The standard filter is the final filter. Based on the selections referenced above, the user is presented with an option to choose between a standard impedance and an 85 ohm impedance. The 85 ohm impedance represents a special supply, while the standard impedance is unmeasured/not marketed and represents the standard properties of the product. In other words, in addition to alternative or preferred options, the product may also include standard options. Returning to the example described above, the user can generate a combination of the Impedance on High Density Array side of the Solutionator (40 pins, 7,00 mm stack height, 0,80 mm pitch) It reduces the available product combinations to their combination with standard impedance supplies. Since the product belonging to the identified product collection (in this case based on previous user input) contains only the standard impedance properties, the Solution uses the default "standard" selection to fill in the impedance sidebar filter.

圖32為描述根據一實施例的在導覽Solutionator至一或多個產品結果時之使用者體驗的流程圖。步驟3202包括向使用者呈現一系列下拉式組配選單之初始Solutionator側邊列。步驟3202表示基於本文中所描述之使用者輸入及邏輯/商業規則的產品篩選。步驟3206呈現向使用者推薦之單一產品，藉此側邊列體驗進行至步驟3208。步驟3204包括向使用者呈現多於單一結果的結果。步驟3210表示使用者基於提供至使用者之技術及圖形資訊自兩個推薦解決方案選擇產品。在此選擇之後，使用者可選擇(3208)接收樣本或規格套件，且完成程序(3212)。若使用者未識別/選擇產品，則使用可自開始再次重新起始Solutionator程序(3214)。Solutionator側邊列將使用者引導至至多兩個配合集合解決方案，但不限於此。然而，產品頁面可展示多個組件作為單一經識別解決方案之零件(如下文關於離散電線產品進一步描述的)。此外，實施例之Solutionator包括允許使用者重設導覽至一或多個產品結果之程序的「Reset Choices(重設選擇)」功能(未圖示)。32 is a flow diagram depicting a user experience in navigating a Solutionator to one or more product results, in accordance with an embodiment. Step 3202 includes presenting the user with an initial set of initiator side columns of a series of pull-down assembly menus. Step 3202 represents product screening based on user input and logic/business rules as described herein. Step 3206 presents a single product that is recommended to the user, whereby the side-by-side experience proceeds to step 3208. Step 3204 includes presenting the result to the user more than a single result. Step 3210 indicates that the user selects a product from two recommended solutions based on technical and graphical information provided to the user. After this selection, the user can select (3208) to receive the sample or specification kit and complete the program (3212). If the user does not recognize/select the product, the application can be restarted again from the beginning (3214).

However, the product page can display multiple components as part of a single identified solution (as further described below with respect to discrete wire products). In addition, the Solution of the embodiment includes a "Reset Choices" function (not shown) that allows the user to reset the program that navigates to one or more product results.
呈現考慮事項Presentation considerations
各側邊列Solutionator經設計以置於標準網頁之右側或左側，作為用於產品設計及導覽之可選來源。將Solutionator解決方案表示為當前頁面之覆疊，且意欲置於當前檢視之產品頁面的現有內容上。Solutionator呈現包含設計師元素及結果畫面元素，如下文進一步描述。Each Side Array Solution is designed to be placed on the right or left side of a standard web page as an optional source for product design and navigation. The Solution solution is represented as a overlay of the current page and is intended to be placed on the existing content of the currently viewed product page. The Solutionator render contains designer elements and result screen elements, as further described below.
1. 設計師元素：根據一實施例，Solutionator包含可以任何格式定位從而允許使用者選取預先指定之數目個篩選器或篩選器範圍(其兩者皆包含下拉式選單)之垂直矩形。作為一實例，實施例之Solutionator使得使用者能夠選取2個與5個之間的數目個篩選器，但篩選器之此等數目僅為實例，且實施例不限於此數目或篩選器數目之範圍。選單可為具有或不具有框線之正方形，只要篩選器/選單表示篩選器解決方案及將進行之動作即可。根據一實施例，將進行之一個給定動作包括令使用者進入對應於經組配產品之結果畫面的「Get Solutions」動作。1. Designer Elements: According to an embodiment, the Solutionator can includeAny format positioning allows the user to select a vertical rectangle of a pre-specified number of filters or filter ranges, both of which contain drop-down menus. As an example, the Solution of the embodiment enables the user to select a number of filters between 2 and 5, but the number of filters is only an example, and the embodiment is not limited to this number or the number of filters . The menu can be a square with or without a border, as long as the filter/menu represents the filter solution and the action that will be taken. According to an embodiment, a given action to be performed includes a "Get Solutions" action that causes the user to enter a result screen corresponding to the assembled product.
2. 結果畫面：結果畫面可呈如下文所描述之2個不同格式，但實施例不限於此。2. Result Screen: The result screen may be in two different formats as described below, but the embodiment is not limited thereto.
a. 第一格式(圖31)包括一個配合集合解決方案。此畫面意欲表示一個最佳適配使用者之篩選器選擇的解決方案。根據一實施例，當表示一個解決方案時，以下內容在螢幕上即刻可用：a. The first format (Figure 31) includes a mate set solution. This screen is intended to represent a solution that best fits the user's filter selection. According to an embodiment, when representing a solution, the following content is immediately available on the screen:
i. 產品影像(3112、3114)i. Product image (3112, 3114)
ii. 產品零件編號(3116、3118)Ii. Product part number (3116, 3118)
iii. 技術文件(3102、3104)Iii. Technical documents (3102, 3104)
iv 動作：Iv action:
1. 規格套件請求(3106)1. Specification Kit Request (3106)
2. 樣本請求(3110)2. Sample request (3110)
3. 與工程師聊天(3108)3. Chatting with the engineer (3108)
b. 第二格式供應2個配合集合解決方案。此畫面意欲展示匹配使用者篩選器之兩個配合集合。根據一實施例，當表示兩個解決方案時，以下內容在螢幕上即刻可用：b. The second format provides two mating set solutions. This screen is intended to show two matching sets that match the user filter. According to an implementationFor example, when representing two solutions, the following is immediately available on the screen:
i. 產品影像(2906、2908)i. Product Image (2906, 2908)
ii. 產品零件編號(2940、2950)、族系描述(2910、2912)Ii. Product part number (2940, 2950), family description (2910, 2912)
iii. 技術文件(2914、2916)Iii. Technical documents (2914, 2916)
iv. Select(選擇)選項(2918、2920)Iv. Select option (2918, 2920)
3. 結果畫面之變化包括：3. Changes in the results screen include:
a. 在一些情況下(例如，Discrete wire產品等)，展示兩個以上產品組件係可能的。在此等狀況下，在同一畫面上以網格格式展示所有可用產品組件(圖33)。然而應注意，根據此實施例，Solutionator已識別單一推薦產品，其中單一產品自身包含產品組件之集合。如上文已指示，Solutionator側邊列將使用者引導至兩個或兩個以上配合集合解決方案。然而，產品頁面可展示多個組件作為單一經識別解決方案之部分。a. In some cases (for example, Discrete wire products, etc.), it is possible to display more than two product components. In these cases, all available product components are displayed in a grid format on the same screen (Figure 33). It should be noted, however, that according to this embodiment, the Solutionator has identified a single recommended product, where a single product itself contains a collection of product components. As indicated above, the Solutionator sidebar directs the user to two or more mate collection solutions. However, the product page can display multiple components as part of a single identified solution.
b. 在一些情況下，展示兩個以下產品係可能的(類似單件介面)。在此狀況下，將產品展示為獨立解決方案(圖34)。b. In some cases, it is possible to display two of the following products (similar to a one-piece interface). In this case, the product is presented as a stand-alone solution (Figure 34).
Solutionator側邊列解決方案在提供Solutionator組配工具時實施以下寫碼演算法中之一或多者：The Solutionator sidebar solution implements one or more of the following code algorithms when providing the Solutionator assembly tool:
1. 技術文件擷取-經由下文所描述之查找表實現針對對應於經識別產品之文件的文件擷取。此等文件可包括Pads、3D模型及技術報告。注意，在Solutionator篩選程序結束時，在產品登陸頁面上之連結以易於察看且易於存取的連結將使用者導引至此等文件。根據一項實施例，技術規格連結提供至技術規格頁面之點選路徑，該技術規格頁面含有用於對應零件系列之技術文件的全方位集合，如下文進一步描述。1. Technical File Capture - File retrieval for files corresponding to identified products is accomplished via a lookup table as described below. These documents may include Pads, 3D models, and technical reports. Note that at the end of the Solutionator filter, the links on the product landing page are easy to see and easy to access.The link directs the user to these files. According to one embodiment, the specification link is provided to a point-by-point path to a technical specification page that contains a comprehensive set of technical documents for the corresponding part series, as further described below.
根據一實施例，用以將零件編號與檔案/報告匹配之邏輯係基於有效匹配字元。此實施例對特定零件編號之各段執行匹配。根據一實施例，零件之各段可由破折號(-)分隔符號來定界，但不限於此。擷取程序比較經識別零件編號與對應的用分隔符號標記之位置中之條目。舉例而言，零件編號「QTH-040-01-L-P-A」在第一、第三、第四及第六位置中匹配編號「QTH-030-01-L-A-A」。注意，該等段僅在其在相同定界位置中匹配時才匹配。在上文實例中，第一檔案之在第六位置中的「A」不產生與第二檔案之第五位置中之「A」的匹配。According to an embodiment, the logic used to match the part number to the archive/report is based on valid matching characters. This embodiment performs a match on each segment of a particular part number. According to an embodiment, the segments of the part may be delimited by a dash (-) delimiter, but are not limited thereto. The capture program compares the identified part number with the corresponding entry in the location marked with the separator. For example, the part number "QTH-040-01-L-P-A" matches the number "QTH-030-01-L-A-A" in the first, third, fourth, and sixth positions. Note that the segments match only when they match in the same delimited position. In the above example, the "A" in the sixth position of the first file does not produce a match with "A" in the fifth position of the second file.
零件命名慣例可使用X作為萬用字元。當報告檔名含有X時，將彼等字元視為無意義的且忽略。並不將其作為「未命中」來計數，但亦不將其作為匹配來計數。演算法移至零件編號之下一段，且試圖與報告檔名之下一區塊匹配。傳回最佳匹配報告作為匹配。Part naming conventions can use X as a universal character. When the report file name contains X, the characters are considered meaningless and ignored. It is not counted as a "miss", but it is not counted as a match. The algorithm moves to a section below the part number and attempts to match a block below the report file name. Return the best match report as a match.
考慮對照下文所闡述之檔名將搜尋演算法應用於零件編號QTH-030-01-L-D-A。Consider applying the search algorithm to part number QTH-030-01-L-D-A against the file names described below.
1. QTH-040-01-L-P-A1. QTH-040-01-L-P-A
2. QTH-030-01-L-P-A2. QTH-030-01-L-P-A
3. QTH-030-01-L-D-A3. QTH-030-01-L-D-A
4. QTH-030-01-X-D-X4. QTH-030-01-X-D-X
為了易於參考，向上文之檔名指派編號1至4。如上文所指示，將X字元視為無意義的。在此實例中，關於萬用字元之匹配並非未命中，且亦不作為匹配來計數。熟習此項技術者將理解，可關於根據不同實例可作為匹配或未命中來計數之萬用字元來進行各種方法。如上文所指示，Solutionator方法藉由完整零件編號來識別配合集合解決方案。然而，資料庫參考可遇到可能能或可能不能用萬用字元來考慮之遺漏值。應注意，熟習此項技術者可以各種方式處理遺漏值(例如，作為匹配、非匹配或以其他方式)。For ease of reference, the file names are assigned numbers 1 through 4 for the text. As indicated above, X characters are considered meaningless. In this example, the match for the mega character is not a miss and is not counted as a match. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that various methods can be performed with respect to universal characters that can be counted as matches or misses according to different instances. As indicated above, the Solutionator method identifies the mating set solution by the full part number. However, the database reference may encounter missing values that may or may not be considered in the universal character. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can process missing values in various ways (eg, as a match, non-match, or otherwise).
返回實例，搜尋演算法將QTH-030-01-L-D-A與下文所闡述之零件編號匹配。Returning to the example, the search algorithm matches QTH-030-01-L-D-A with the part number described below.
1. QTH-040-01-L-P-A1. QTH-040-01-L-P-A
2. QTH-030-01-L-P-A2. QTH-030-01-L-P-A
3. QTH-030-01-L-D-A3. QTH-030-01-L-D-A
4. QTH-030-01-X-D-X4. QTH-030-01-X-D-X
參考(或經識別)零件「QTH-030-01-L-D-A」在第一位置中與QTH序列上的各資料庫參考匹配。因此，各檔案接收針對匹配之「1」命中及「0」未命中(亦即，1-0)的計分。參考零件在第二位置上匹配資料庫檔名2至4，藉此所有此等零件在命中欄中接收額外計分增量1，從而針對此各檔案達成總分數「2-0」。檔案1之在同一位置之非匹配產生未命中及分數「1-1」。參考零件在第三位置處匹配各檔案1至4，且各檔案之「命中」計分遞增1，從而使得檔案1具有分數「2-1」，且檔案2至4具有各別分數「3-0」。參考零件在第四位置處匹配每個資料庫檔案1至4。注意，歸因於萬用字元條目「X」，參考零件在第四位置中匹配零件4。如上文所指示，將X字元視為無意義的且忽略。並不將其作為「未命中」來計數，但亦不將其作為匹配來計數。因此，將檔案1計分為「3-1」，且將檔案2至3計分為「4-0」檔案4不經歷分數改變，且保留在「3-0」。繼續該演算法，參考零件在第五位置處未命中檔案1至2，但匹配檔案3至4。因此，將檔案1計分為「3-2」，將零件2計分為「4-1」，將零件3計分為「5-0」且將零件4計分為「4-0」。參考零件在最後位置中匹配所有資料庫檔案，但歸因於此位置中之萬用字元X而匹配檔案4。因此，檔案1至4之最終分數分別為「4-2」、「5-1」、「6-0」及「4-0」。因此，檔案3為獲勝者且被傳回。技術文件擷取程序可包括用以在未識別完美匹配之情況下傳回次最佳匹配的規則，及在用於分數相等之檔案之間分出高下的規則。The reference (or identified) part "QTH-030-01-L-D-A" matches the database references on the QTH sequence in the first position. Therefore, each file receives a score for a matching "1" hit and a "0" miss (ie, 1-0). The reference part matches the database file names 2 to 4 in the second position, whereby all such parts receive an additional score increment of 1 in the hit bar, thereby achieving a total score of "2-0" for each of the files. The non-matching of the file 1 at the same location results in a miss and a score of "1-1". The reference part matches each file 1 to 4 at the third position, and the "hit" score of each file is incremented by 1, thereby making file 1Has a score of "2-1", and files 2 to 4 have respective scores of "3-0". The reference part matches each of the database files 1 to 4 at the fourth position. Note that the reference part matches part 4 in the fourth position due to the universal character entry "X". As indicated above, X characters are considered meaningless and ignored. It is not counted as a "miss", but it is not counted as a match. Therefore, the file 1 is scored as "3-1", and the files 2 to 3 are classified into "4-0" files. 4 The score is not changed, and is retained at "3-0". Continuing with the algorithm, the reference part misses files 1 through 2 at the fifth position, but matches files 3 through 4. Therefore, the file 1 is divided into "3-2", the part 2 is divided into "4-1", the part 3 is divided into "5-0", and the part 4 is divided into "4-0". The reference part matches all database files in the last position, but matches the file 4 due to the universal character X in this position. Therefore, the final scores for files 1 to 4 are "4-2", "5-1", "6-0" and "4-0" respectively. Therefore, file 3 is the winner and is returned. The technical file retrieval program may include rules for returning the next best match without identifying a perfect match, and rules for separating the scores between files for equal scores.
技術文件搜尋及擷取對照維持於Samtec資料庫中之零件編號來執行上文參考之搜尋。根據一項實施例，以手動方式使技術文件與零件編號相關聯，且儲存於此等資料庫中。注意，技術文件可能或可能不與確切零件編號相關聯。如上文所指示，零件編號可包括萬用字元條目或可編碼關於特定型號之特定資訊的其他標識。搜尋可產生匹配(如上文所描述)或可經設計成對零件系列中之經特殊設計/編碼條目執行匹配，或對文數字條目及分隔符號之特定串連執行匹配。技術文件擷取程序可根據檔案類型且進一步根據檔案格式來搜尋。商業使用者決策可縮減或界定與使用者/客戶應用需要及/或購物體驗最相關的文件/資訊之集合。本文中所描述之Solutionator程序在Solutionato選擇程序結束時經由向使用者呈現之產品頁面上的連結來提供對經識別文件、報告及技術資訊之存取。The technical documentation searches and retrieves the part numbers maintained in the Samtec database to perform the search referenced above. According to one embodiment, the technical file is manually associated with the part number and stored in such a database. Note that the technical documentation may or may not be associated with the exact part number. As indicated above, the part number may include a universal character entry or other identification that may encode specific information about a particular model. The search may produce a match (as described above) or may be designed to perform a match on a specially designed/encoded entry in the part series, or on a numeric entry and a separator symbol.Set the join to perform the match. The technical file capture program can be searched based on the file type and further based on the file format. Business user decisions can reduce or define a collection of files/information that are most relevant to the user/customer application needs and/or shopping experience. The Solution program described herein provides access to identified documents, reports, and technical information via a link on the product page presented to the user at the end of the Solutionato selection process.
2. 篩選器集合-各側邊列具有其自身的獨特預定義篩選器集合，其根據一實施例由數值實體識別。根據一項實施例，以下步驟可應用於側邊列之擷取及格式化。2. Filter Sets - Each side column has its own unique set of predefined filters, which are identified by numerical entities in accordance with an embodiment. According to an embodiment, the following steps can be applied to the capture and formatting of the side columns.
a. Get<Sidebar>FilterByFilterType-對於各側邊列，基於數值判定相關聯之篩選器且擷取篩選器。判定側邊列之類型且轉譯彼資料類型(數值型、字母型、組合型)之資料。在此階段，已應用預先篩選器。基於對應於由使用者選擇之產品類別的類別來預先篩選各Solutionator。在使用者篩選開始之前，在初始資料集中僅存在用於彼類別之資料。a. Get<Sidebar>FilterByFilterType - For each side column, the associated filter is determined based on the value and the filter is retrieved. Determine the type of the side column and translate the data of the data type (numeric, alphabetic, combined). At this stage, a pre-filter has been applied. Each of the Solutions is pre-screened based on the category corresponding to the product category selected by the user. Only data for each category exists in the initial data set before user screening begins.
b. 自上而下對值進行排序(數值/字母次序)b. Sort values from top to bottom (numeric/alphabetic order)
c. 組合互斥之篩選器(堆疊/定向)-對於一些篩選器，組合來自兩個不同類型的互斥之資料集。此步驟在一個下拉式選單中提供2個篩選器。c. Combining mutually exclusive filters (stacking/orientation) - For some filters, combine data sets from two different types of mutually exclusive. This step provides 2 filters in a drop-down menu.
d. 判定是否需要核取方塊或下拉值(布林值或清單)。若存在布林值，則展示「YES(是)」或「NO(否)」之文字方塊。d. Determine if you need to check the box or drop-down value (Bulin value or list). If there is a Boolean value, a text box of "YES" or "NO" is displayed.
3. 連結至現有Samtec_Part資料庫-根據一實施例，Solutionator連結至現有Samtec資料庫以確保產品有效性或過時性。經由此方法，Solutionator連結至現有Samtec零件資料庫，使得根據一項實施例，當企業工業工程小組消除產品時，即刻自側邊列消除該產品。在關係資料庫中，零件攜載唯一識別符，該識別符又將id號碼(及因此，對應零件)連結至散佈於關係資料庫機制之表中的資訊。如上文所指示，Solutionator連結至現有Samtec資料庫。若企業決策(商業/工程)中斷生產零件，則自資料庫移除唯一id，且對Samtec資料庫之查詢不再獲得用於此零件之唯一id。因此，側邊列查詢反映詳細目錄之當前狀態；因此，資料庫查詢不會傳回不存在之組配選項。以類似方式，已改變/中斷生產之產品(及產品選項)將以改變的格式出現在Solutionator側邊列解決方案中，或自中斷生產之時起將不再可用。3. Link to the existing Samtec_Part database - according to an implementationFor example, the Solutionator links to an existing Samtec database to ensure product validity or outdated. In this way, the Solutionator is linked to an existing Samtec part database such that, according to one embodiment, when the enterprise industrial engineering team eliminates the product, the product is immediately removed from the sidebar. In the relational database, the part carries a unique identifier that in turn links the id number (and, therefore, the corresponding part) to the information scattered in the table of the relational database mechanism. As indicated above, the Solution is linked to the existing Samtec database. If the enterprise decision (commercial/engineering) interrupts the production of the part, the unique id is removed from the repository and the query for the Samtec database no longer obtains the unique id for this part. Therefore, the side column query reflects the current state of the inventory; therefore, the database query does not return a non-existing grouping option. In a similar manner, products that have changed/interrupted production (and product options) will appear in the changed side format in the Solutionator sidebar solution or will no longer be available from the time the production is interrupted.
4. 篩選器改變-當篩選器改變時，實施例需要對過時資料之再新/展示覆疊。當使用者藉由改變篩選器選項中之一者來改變其初始篩選器集合時，例如因為使用者不滿意傳給其之產品，就必須以某種方式停用當前顯示之資料。此將避免使用者認為來自先前結果集合之資料對其新篩選器條目有效。為了獲得其新結果，使用者必須藉由再次點選Get Solutions按鈕來再新其資料。Solutionator設計避免了以下可能推論：新篩選器選擇對應於螢幕上產品。強制再新用對應於已更改的篩選器選擇之經識別產品來填入畫面。根據一實施例，已改變篩選器值可產生螢幕上訊息，其提示使用者再次按壓「Get Solutions」按鈕，以便達到由新篩選器選擇識別之產品。基於經修訂輸入，Solutionator可取消不再對應於已更改篩選器輸入之後續篩選器選擇。在此情況下，「Get Solutions」按鈕不再可操作以識別/擷取推薦的產品。因此，使用者可需要鍵入新的後續篩選器選擇以便重新啟用「Get Solutions」按鈕之功能性。根據替代實施例，在Solutionator程序期間向使用者呈現之解決方案可隨使用者改變篩選器選擇而動態地改變。4. Filter Changes - When the filter changes, the embodiment requires a new/display overlay of obsolete data. When a user changes their initial filter set by changing one of the filter options, for example because the user is dissatisfied with the product being passed to it, the currently displayed material must be deactivated in some way. This will prevent the user from thinking that the data from the previous result set is valid for its new filter entry. In order to get new results, the user must re-create his or her profile by clicking the Get Solutions button again. The Solutionator design avoids the following possible inference: the new filter selection corresponds to the on-screen product. Force the new to fill in the screen with the identified product corresponding to the changed filter selection. According to an embodiment, the filter value has been changed to generate a message on the screen.It prompts the user to press the "Get Solutions" button again to reach the product identified by the new filter selection. Based on the revised input, the Solution can cancel subsequent filter selections that no longer correspond to the changed filter input. In this case, the "Get Solutions" button is no longer operational to identify/retrieve the recommended product. Therefore, the user may need to type in a new follow-up filter selection to re-enable the functionality of the "Get Solutions" button. According to an alternative embodiment, the solution presented to the user during the Solutionator program can be dynamically changed as the user changes the filter selection.
5. 預設值-實施例提供當在篩選器中僅有一個資料點可用時之預設值。5. Presets - The embodiment provides a preset value when only one data point is available in the filter.
6. 零件影像-實施例試圖顯示實際零件影像，且當確切產品影像不可用時回退到系列預設影像上。首先在零件主影像表中查找，接著在確切零件不存在於主影像表中之情況下預設至系列層級表。6. Part Image - The embodiment attempts to display the actual part image and rewinds onto the series preset image when the exact product image is not available. First look in the part's main image table, then preset to the series level table if the exact part does not exist in the main image table.

如上文已指示，根據各種實施例，Samtec網站向使用者提供規格套件(「Specs Kit」)文件。根據一項實施例，Specs Kit為向網站使用者提供技術文件以便輔助使用者作出關於其正考慮用於其應用之零件的明智決策的快速且簡單之方式。Specs Kit概念解決互連網站上之常見問題。習知互連網站強制使用者導覽困難的介面工作流程以存取與使用者所關注之零件/組件相關的技術資訊及文件。使用者可能甚至不能夠使用習知網站找到所要資訊。As indicated above, according to various embodiments, the Samtec website provides a specification kit ("Specs Kit") file to the user. According to one embodiment, the Specs Kit provides technical documentation to the website user to assist the user in makingA quick and easy way to make informed decisions about the parts it is considering for its application. The Specs Kit concept addresses common issues on the Internet. The Known Interconnect website forces users to navigate through difficult interface workflows to access technical information and documentation related to the parts/components that the user is interested in. The user may not even be able to find the desired information using the conventional website.
Samtec將Specs Kit概念實施至Solutionator執行個體中以促進使用者存取技術資訊，且藉此增加Samtec產品將被設計至客戶應用中之可能性。Samtec implements the Specs Kit concept into the Solutionator implementation to facilitate user access to technical information and thereby increase the likelihood that Samtec products will be designed into customer applications.
Specs Kit提供可用於經識別零件/組件之技術資訊。當用於零件之完整資訊集合可用(亦即，Specs Kit處於全容量下)時，根據一實施例，Specs Kit包括以下元素：Specs Kit provides technical information on identified parts/components. When a complete set of information for a part is available (ie, the Specs Kit is at full capacity), according to an embodiment, the Specs Kit includes the following elements:
˙工程製圖̇Engineering drawing
˙產品佔據面積̇ product footprint
˙呈IGES、Parasolid及STEP(三個最常見3D模型格式)形式之3D模型3D models in the form of IGES, Parasolid and STEP (three most common 3D model formats)
˙PADS程式庫̇PADS library
˙至額外技術規格之連結Link to additional technical specifications
根據一項實施例，上文之資訊表示典型使用者判定零件是否適配於使用者之應用所需要之內容的95%。亦可藉由使用與Samtec網站上之每個產品相關聯的技術規格連結來存取額外資訊。According to one embodiment, the above information indicates that a typical user determines whether the part is adapted to 95% of the content required by the user's application. Additional information can also be accessed by using a technical specification link associated with each product on the Samtec website.
根據一項實施例，Specs Kit包括至詳述對應於全部零件編號之資訊之文件的連結。換言之，Specs Kit提供對應於特定零件編號之技術資訊。根據替代實施例，Specs Kit可用作不限於特定零件編號而是在產品決策程序中之較高層級處可用的交付項目。舉例而言，Samtec可在系列層級(例如，QSE、TSW、BCS及ERM8系列)上提供高階Specs Kit，其將幫助使用者判定使用者是否應該用此系列繼續，而非要求使用者仔細察看使用者通常將經由額外點選導覽存取之若干獨立文件。According to one embodiment, the Specs Kit includes links to files detailing information corresponding to all part numbers. In other words, the Specs Kit provides technical information corresponding to a specific part number. According to an alternative embodiment, SpecsThe Kit can be used as a delivery item that is not limited to a specific part number but is available at a higher level in the product decision process. For example, Samtec offers high-end Specs Kits at the serial level (eg, QSE, TSW, BCS, and ERM8 series) that will help users determine if users should continue with this series, rather than requiring users to take a closer look at them. A number of separate files will typically be accessed via an additional click.
Specs Kit聚集及捆綁原本將跨越多個獨立位置而散佈之技術資訊。根據一項實施例，Specs Kit以單一便利集束呈現此資訊，使用者可使用單一介面在該集束中存取技術文件之零碎內容。使用者可使用該介面來在不導覽離開捆綁資訊之情況下查找單筆技術資訊。當使用者查找或擷取用於特定零件編號之一筆技術資訊時，根據一實施例，該介面保持對使用者可用，從而提供對可用技術資訊之整個集合的持續且無縫的存取。實施例之所擷取資訊包括電子文件(例如，PDF文件等)、3D模型格式、word文件及影像檔案，且可經由電子郵件或經由網頁來遞送。Specs Kit aggregates and bundles technical information that would otherwise be spread across multiple independent locations. According to one embodiment, the Specs Kit presents this information in a single convenient bundle, and the user can access the fragmented content of the technical file in the bundle using a single interface. Users can use this interface to find a single technical message without browsing away from the bundled information. When a user finds or retrieves pen technical information for a particular part number, according to an embodiment, the interface remains available to the user, providing continuous and seamless access to the entire collection of available technical information. The captured information of the embodiment includes an electronic file (eg, a PDF file, etc.), a 3D model format, a word file, and an image file, and can be delivered via email or via a web page.
根據一實施例，在螢幕上將Specs Kits作為在由使用者經由Solutionator識別之組件旁側出現的可點選連結之群集來遞送。在替代實施例中，亦可經由電子郵件遞送Specs Kit。Specs Kit之用電子郵件發送之版本複製螢幕上版本之功能性，其中差異為此等連結在電子郵件呈現中可用。According to an embodiment, the Specs Kits are delivered on the screen as a cluster of clickable links that appear on the side of the component identified by the user via the Solutionator. In an alternate embodiment, the Specs Kit can also be delivered via email. The version of the Specs Kit's emailed version replicates the functionality of the on-screen version, with the differences being available for these links in email rendering.
圖53展示根據一實施例的Specs Kit之螢幕上版本。根據一實施例，在圖53中右方之藍色連結(5302至5312)表示用於「LSS-110-01-L-DV-A」零件號之完整螢幕上Specs Kit。根據一實施例，使用者可簡單地點選各連結，由此Samtec網站立即遞送對應文件。Drawings(製圖)(5302)及Footprints(佔據面積)(5304)可在瀏覽器視窗中開啟，因此使用者可立即檢視其。選擇3D模型檔案(5308、5310)可將下載排入使用者電腦之佇列，之後使用者可使用對應的3D模型化軟體來開啟所請求檔案。Specs Kit亦提供至用於彼產品之額外技術規格(5312)的連結。使用者亦可藉由使用圖53左側之E-mail Address(電子郵件地址)工具(5314)來請求Specs Kit之電子郵件複本。電子郵件選項遞送具有列於螢幕上之相同文件的詳細電子郵件，其中具有重新返回至確切網頁(使用者自其請求用電子郵件發送之Specs Kit)之習知連結。圖54提供根據一實施例的Specs Kit之電子(電子郵件)版本。Figure 53 shows an on-screen version of a Specs Kit, in accordance with an embodiment. According to an embodiment, the blue link on the right in FIG. 53 (5302 to 5312)Indicates the full screen Specs Kit for the "LSS-110-01-L-DV-A" part number. According to an embodiment, the user can select each link in a simple location, whereby the Samtec website immediately delivers the corresponding file. Drawings (5302) and Footprints (5304) can be opened in the browser window so users can view them immediately. Selecting the 3D model file (5308, 5310) can be downloaded into the user's computer list, after which the user can use the corresponding 3D modeling software to open the requested file. The Specs Kit also provides links to additional technical specifications (5312) for use in its products. The user can also request an email copy of the Specs Kit by using the E-mail Address tool (5314) on the left side of Figure 53. The email option delivers a detailed email with the same files listed on the screen with a custom link back to the exact web page (the Specs Kit that the user requested by email). Figure 54 provides an electronic (email) version of the Specs Kit, in accordance with an embodiment.
可在Samtec網站上之多個位置中得到Specs Kit。如上文已描述，可經由Solutionator執行個體得到Specs Kit。圖53顯示根據一實施例的用於自Solutionator程序輸出的完整零件編號之螢幕上Specs Kit。根據一項實施例，使用者可自Samtec主網站達到螢幕上規格套件。僅作為一個實例，以下路徑將使用者導覽至作為Solutionator程序之輸出的螢幕上Specs Kit：The Specs Kit is available in several locations on the Samtec website. As described above, the Specs Kit can be obtained by executing the individual via the Solutionator. Figure 53 shows an on-screen Specs Kit for the complete part number output from the Solutionator program, in accordance with an embodiment. According to one embodiment, the user can reach the on-screen specification kit from the Samtec main website. As an example only, the following path navigates the user to the Specs Kit on the screen as the output of the Solution program:
˙http：//www.samtec.com→Connectors/Rugged High Speed Stripṡhttp://www.samtec.com→Connectors/Rugged High Speed Strips
￮如下填寫Solutionator®輸入：○ Fill in the Solutionator® input as follows:
￭總接腳數-208■Total pin count -208
￭高度/定向-12,00mm■ Height / orientation -12,00mm
￭間距-0,635mm■ Spacing-0,635mm
隨著配合集合之各零件編號作為Solutionator程序之輸出被傳回(參見圖42)，在Samtec檔案系統中執行查找以找到對應於此各零件編號之可用技術文件。如圖42中所見，以提供至技術資料之連結的螢幕上Specs Kit的形式來展示用於彼零件之可用技術文件。As the part numbers of the mating collection are passed back as outputs of the Solutionator program (see Figure 42), a lookup is performed in the Samtec file system to find the available technical files corresponding to the part numbers. As seen in Figure 42, the available technical documentation for the parts is shown in the form of a Specs Kit on the screen that provides a link to the technical data.
亦可使用Samtec網站之搜尋特徵來得到Specs Kit。搜尋工具允許藉由在位於Samtec網站之右上方的搜尋工具欄位中鍵入零件名稱之一部分的靈活搜尋。圖55展示根據一實施例的位於公司主網站之右上方的互動式搜尋工具，其按照「products」、「subcategory groups」、「product features」、「sites」及「product descriptions」展示含有片語「ERF」之搜尋結果。圖56展示根據一實施例的位於公司主網站之右上方的互動式搜尋工具，其展示含有片語「ERF8」的搜尋結果，其自動地展示所有ERF8產品。You can also use the search features on the Samtec website to get the Specs Kit. The search tool allows for a flexible search by typing a part of the part name in the search tool field located at the top right of the Samtec website. Figure 55 shows an interactive search tool located at the top right of the company's main website, in accordance with an embodiment of the "products", "subcategory groups", "product features", "sites" and "product descriptions". Search results for ERF". Figure 56 shows an interactive search tool located at the top right of the company's main website, showing search results containing the phrase "ERF8", which automatically displays all ERF8 products, according to an embodiment.
搜尋工具允許基於零件編號之特定產品搜尋。搜尋工具之輸出(當找到完全匹配時)提供與作為Solutionator之Specs Kit輸出而傳回的技術文件相同的技術文件。螢幕上顯示可不同。圖57展示根據一實施例的至用於完全匹配零件ERM8-060-08.0-L-DV之技術資訊的螢幕上連結。搜尋結果提供至用於彼零件之可用技術資訊的連結(5710)。根據此實施例，聚集/捆綁連結並不被稱為Specs Kit。在Specs Kit之搜尋版本中提供的連結仍以相同方式開啟及擷取技術資訊，從而允許使用者藉由直接將特定零件編號鍵打至搜尋方塊中來存取技術文件。圖57展示根據一實施例的Specs Kit之搜尋版本。注意，Specs Kit下載選項(5710)在進階P/N(零件/編號)搜尋之右下角。The search tool allows for specific product searches based on part numbers. The output of the search tool (when an exact match is found) provides the same technical file as the technical file returned as the Specs Kit output of the Solution. The display on the screen can be different. Figure 57 shows an on-screen link to technical information for a fully matched part ERM8-060-08.0-L-DV, in accordance with an embodiment. The search results are provided to a link to the available technical information for the part (5710). According to this embodiment, the aggregation/bundling link is not referred to as a Specs Kit. In the Specs KitThe links provided in the search version still open and retrieve technical information in the same way, allowing the user to access technical files by directly typing a specific part number key into the search box. Figure 57 shows a search version of the Specs Kit, according to an embodiment. Note that the Specs Kit download option (5710) is in the lower right corner of the advanced P/N (part/number) search.
Samtec網站亦經由Pricing and Delivery介面供應一版本的Specs Kit。根據一實施例，Specs Kit之實施導致Pricing and Delivery面板實際上與Search Results(搜尋結果)介面中之所顯示技術連結相同，僅在呈現樣式上稍有變化。連結在顯示及擷取資訊中之操作保持相同。圖58展示根據一實施例的Specs Kit技術資訊連結(5810)經由Pricing and Delivery介面之實施。Samtec網站提供至Pricing and Delivery介面之以下路徑：http：//www.samtec.com→Pricing and Delivery→Enter full part numberThe Samtec website also offers a version of the Specs Kit via the Pricing and Delivery interface. According to an embodiment, the implementation of the Specs Kit causes the Pricing and Delivery panel to actually be the same as the displayed technology in the Search Results interface, with only minor changes in the rendering style. The actions in the link to display and retrieve information remain the same. Figure 58 shows an implementation of a Specs Kit Technology Information Link (5810) via a Pricing and Delivery interface, in accordance with an embodiment. The Samtec website provides the following path to the Pricing and Delivery interface: http://www.samtec.com→Pricing and Delivery→Enter full part number
根據另一實施例，亦可經由Build a Part(建置零件)工具組配程序得到Specs Kit，該程序允許使用者經由簡單的線上介面組配Samtec零件編號。一旦使用者完成零件組配，使用者便將具有基於經組配零件編號「Generate a Specs Kit(產生規格套件)」之選項。此方法與上文所描述之Specs Kit實施例稍有不同。使用不同方法之原因可歸因於所傳回之文件對使用者鍵入之零件編號特定的事實。因此，每當輸入零件變化時查詢Samtec網路伺服器將引起過多負擔。根據一實施例，可經由以下路徑存取Build a Part工具：http：//www.samtec.com/→Design Tools→Build a PartAccording to another embodiment, the Specs Kit can also be obtained via the Build a Part tool assembly program, which allows the user to assemble the Samtec part number via a simple online interface. Once the user completes the part assembly, the user will have the option based on the assembled part number "Generate a Specs Kit". This method is slightly different from the Specs Kit embodiment described above. The reason for using different methods can be attributed to the fact that the returned document is specific to the part number entered by the user. Therefore, querying the Samtec network server whenever an input part changes will cause an excessive burden. According to an embodiment, Build a Part can be accessed via the following pathTools: http://www.samtec.com/→Design Tools→Build a Part
其他Specs Kit實施例包括用於個別零件之全方位技術規格頁面。如上文所指示，在Solutionator程序結束時在經識別/推薦產品之呈現旁側向使用者提供技術規格連結。技術規格連結向使用者提供用於零件系列之技術資訊的全方位集合。根據替代實施例，類似技術規格連結/頁面可用於特定零件對零件系列。此替代技術規格頁面可提供於以下環境中：Other Specs Kit examples include a comprehensive technical specification page for individual parts. As indicated above, a technical specification link is provided to the user alongside the presentation of the identified/recommended product at the end of the Solutionator program. The Technical Specifications link provides the user with a comprehensive collection of technical information for the parts range. According to an alternative embodiment, similar technical specification links/pages can be used for a particular part-to-part series. This alternate technical specification page is available in the following environments:
˙全總成Solutionator(亦即，Acclimate Solutionator可提供對替代零件特定技術規格實施例之存取)̇Complete Assembly Solution (ie, Acclimate Solutionator provides access to specific technical specifications for alternative parts)
˙混合Solutionator(例如，Discrete Wire及High Speed Cable混合Solutionator執行個體可供應替代零件特定技術規格實施例；回想混合Solutionator或「Design Solutions」方法供應超出本文中所描述之Solutionator執行個體之「Get Solutions」方法的額外設計元素)̇Mixed Solutionator (for example, Discrete Wire and High Speed Cable Hybrid Solution Execution Individuals can supply alternative parts specific technical specification embodiments; recall the Mixed Solution or "Design Solutions" method to supply "Get Solutions" beyond the Solution Executives described in this article. Additional design elements of the method)

Solutionator之替代實施例可將本文中所描述之Solutionator執行個體抽象化，以允許使用者最初對與組件有關的所要篩選器進行搜尋。根據一實施例，此替代方法可由使用者自Samtec.com首頁得到。替代搜尋方法可允許使用者基於對篩選器類型之選擇而開始搜尋。搜尋程序可基於使用者選擇與使用者之應用或預期搜尋策略最相關的篩選器之類型而進行。作為一個實例，基於對作為篩選器之間距的選擇，Samtec介面可基於彼初始選擇而呈現仍可用之一系列篩選器。換言之，某些篩選器可不再與間距為組配選項之產品集合相關。一旦選定間距，使用者便可選擇堆疊高度作為所關注篩選器。Solutionator可接著漸進地識別仍可用之剩餘產品族系篩選器。Solutionator之此替代實施例允許使用者將對使用者之特定目的或應用需要最重要的篩選器類型設為優先的。An alternate embodiment of the Solutionator can abstract the individual of the Solutionator described herein to allow the user to initially search for the desired filter associated with the component. According to an embodiment, this alternative method is available to the user from the home page of Samtec.com. An alternative search method may allow the user to start searching based on the selection of the filter type. The search process can be based on the type of filter that the user selects most relevant to the user's application or the intended search strategy. As an example, based on the choice as the spacing between the filters, the Samtec interface can render one of the series of filters still available based on his initial selection. In other words, some filters can no longer be associated with a collection of products whose spacing is a combination option. Once the spacing is selected, the user can select the stack height as the filter of interest. The Solutionator can then incrementally identify remaining product family filters that are still available. This alternative embodiment of the Solutionator allows the user to prioritize the type of filter that is most important to the user's particular purpose or application needs.
