Share from OSI | Connectors are not simple, choose the right connector
As a key component for current or signal connection, connectors appear in various forms, building bridges between circuits or other components and assuming the role of current or signal connection.
Connectors are indispensable in any system. They are small parts but play a key role. They are like joints in the human body. Imagine how painful it would be if a person's joints were diseased.
Guide you step by step to choose connector
(Various connectors)
Nowadays, the structure of connectors has become increasingly diverse, and it is difficult to solve the classification and naming problems with a single dimension. Various classification methods have emerged:
1. According to the nature of use:
External connector (for external housing) and internal connector (for internal housing)
(External connector)
2. Differentiate by connector level:
Level 1. Component-to-package interconnection
Level 2. Package-to-substrate interconnection
Level 3. Board-to-board connection
Level 4. Subsystem-to-subsystem connectivity
Level 5. Subsystem to I/O connections
Level 6. System-to-system connectivity
3. By processing method
Crimping type, crimping type is also called puncture type, welding type, zero insertion type
(Piercing connector)
4. By usage
Wire-to-board connectors, board-to-board connector wires, wire-to-wire connectors, sockets, input-output connectors
5. By form
PCB connectors, flat cable connectors, coaxial cable connectors, snap-on connectors, press-on connectors, circular connectors, angle connectors, printed wiring board connectors
6. By structure
General connectors, moisture-resistant and waterproof connectors, environment-resistant connectors, airtight connectors, fire-resistant connectors, and water-resistant connectors
7. According to working frequency
Low frequency and high frequency (bounded by 3MHz)
8. Based on their versatility and relevant technical standards, connectors can be divided into the following categories (categories):
Low frequency circular connectors, rectangular connectors, printed circuit connectors, RF connectors, fiber optic connectors
With so many types, which one is right?
The basic performance of connectors can be divided into three categories: mechanical performance, electrical performance and environmental performance. The digital age has brought about ten times the speed of change, and thus has put forward higher requirements on the function, appearance, performance and use environment of connectors.
1. Miniaturization and integration
Products are developing towards small size, low height, narrow pitch, multi-function, long life, and surface mounting.
2. Intelligence
Electronic connectors are equipped with IC chips and control circuits, so that they can more intelligently grasp the usage status of electronic devices and improve the performance of the connector itself to achieve intelligent wireless bridging.
3. High performance
High-speed transmission, high frequency, high current, anti-signal interference and shielding, resistance to extreme environments, green and environmentally friendly.
4. Beautiful and fashionable appearance, more emphasis on humanization
A good connector should not only be more beautiful and fashionable in appearance, more durable in material, more convenient to operate, but more importantly, the connection design of its core parts should be more refined and precise.

What do you know about connectors?
(Connectors also come in male and female varieties)
In principle, connectors can be divided into two categories: male contact plugs and female contact sockets. Unlike the ancient Chinese term for yin and yang, in the West, there is only a distinction between "male" and "female". What other little-known facts about connectors do you know?
