The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

I was wondering if anyone has any information on this question.

I need the smallest connector available for RF. It will be a board-to-board connection and the specs are below:

DC - 3 GHz
positive retention (SMA has a screw to retain the connection)

Any information will help.

Is this a case where the two PCBs mate to each other through a connector rather than use a cable?

Do you want a screw connection, or a push-on?

Board to Board connector use Coaxial? I have no seen that. Maybe some Board to Board series such JAE's (A Japanese Co.) products will satisfy your requirement.

once upon a time Sealectro made a slide-in slide out-out miniature coaxial connector with berylium copper finger-stock. Not sure if it went up to 3GHz, but for sure up to 1Ghz min. Anyways, maybe H&S regs killed it off due to hazardous material restrictions.

You could try looking for the RF Connectors you need on everything RF http://www.everythingrf.com/rf-microwave-connectors

There are thousands of connectors listed from multiple manufacturers, and you an narrow down by specification.
