Types of board-to-board connectors and their advantages

A. Types of board-to-board connectors

1, plug and socket connectors

Plug and socket connectors are the most commonly used board-to-board connectors, they are usually composed of two parts of the plug and socket, the plug part can be inserted into the socket in a fixed position in the small hole. Plug and socket connectors usually use metal pins as the connection interface, earlier connectors use direct plug connection, modern connectors use SMT surface mount technology.Round connector

2.Brush blade connector

Brush blade connectors consist of a number of brushes, these brushes are usually made of metal material, they are very thin and can be bent. Each board has a point on the board, when the board is docked, these brushes will be in contact with the brushes on the other board, thus forming a connection.Square pin row female connector

3.Solder connectors

A solder connector is a connector assembled using metal materials and electro-thermal welding technology. Solder connectors solder the pins of the connector to the board, and then the pins are used to achieve a board-to-board connection. The electro-thermal welding technology used can be manually or automatically operated according to the requirements of the welding process.Board to board connection cable

4.Flexible circuit board connectors

Flexible circuit board connectors are usually composed of flexible circuit boards and metal connectors. Flexible circuit boards usually have a flexible component that can be compressed when entering the connector and create a tight contact to achieve a board-to-board connection. Choose this connector type, usually used in an environment where bending is required between boards.

Second, the advantages of board-to-board connectors

1, board-to-board connectors have good reliability.

When board-to-board connectors are fully inserted in the socket, they can identify and ensure correct wiring, so the connector has good reliability.

2, board-to-board connectors are easy to use.

Plug and socket connectors are easy to use, they simply plug into the socket to make the connection, so they are very practical in any application that requires frequent disassembly and connection.

3, board-to-board connectors powerful.

Board-to-board connectors are suitable for a variety of applications, from low voltage to high voltage, from low power to high power. They can transmit data, signals and power, and are widely used in a variety of industries.

4, board-to-board connectors are used in a wide range of applications.

Board-to-board connectors have a wide range of applications, such as industrial automation, automotive manufacturing, medical equipment and home appliances.
