Robust woven ribbon cables are described for connecting sensors at low temperatures to higher temperature systems. Woven cables have several advantages over conventional wiring or flat ribbon cables in cryostats: heat sinking is easier; twisted pairs may be used; and miniature multi-way connectors are easily incorporated. Their use is demonstrated in making connections from 131 bolometers in two arrays mounted in a dilution refrigerator at 100 mK. Thermal and electrical properties are discussed, as are other possible applications in cryogenic instruments.

The measured dissipation factor and breakdown strength of liquid nitrogen impregnated polyethylene paper insulation for cryogenic power cable are presented. The effect of screening, and impulse and ac deteriorations are discussed. The tests were carried out using model cable type specimens.
The most important problems which need to be solved if superconducting power cables are to be used on a large scale are connected with the superconducting cable materials and the dielectrics used for insulation. Research work on superconducting materials for ac and dc cables is briefly reviewed tog
Ribbon cables have been widely used as subsystem interconnections in a large number of digital systems, because they can convey numerous bits of a digital signal simultaneously. In this article, finite difference and finite difference time domain (FDTD) methods are used to analyze and optimize the e
