Hi,

I need to connect an analog component to a board. From the analog component I have regular pin sticking out. On the board, the connection is female SMA. I have bought male SMA connectors, but I don't know how to attach them. Is there any resource online showing SMA to pin assembly? Would I have to attache 2 wires to the SMA (the signal and the ground)?

Thanks,
 

SMA to pin

Hi,
You have on a coaxial connector (as SMA is too) signal every time to connect to the "midle contact", or others said GND is every time the outer contact, because it has to shield the signal...

center pin to Signal
and the rest four pins to GND

GND Plane should be used !
