Connector composition and function

1. What is a connector?

The electronic connector generally refers to a connection unit between various electronic components and is mainly used as a chip-to-board board, a circuit board, and a board-to-box electronic signal connection and transmission. In terms of types, it can be divided into a board connector, an angle Connectors, cylindrical connectors, and popular PCMCIA specification connectors, etc.

Although the definition of the electronic connector has not been clear, the scope of its coverage, the general understanding does not include high voltage outside the power plug or socket, high current electrical or electrical connectors, electrical switches are not included. In Japan Most people in the industry use German (Translator) transliteration, sometimes called [continuous], and in China, [electrical plug-in] or [electrical plug-in], including connectors and switches, regardless of the electronic, the broad term for electrical appliances. As far as applications are concerned, most electronic connectors are used in computers, telecommunications, aviation, automobiles, and various instruments.

2. Connector application

The electronic connector is used in electrical products. As the name implies, it acts as a connection for electronic signals or components. It is a multi-component or assembled product and covers key technologies such as metal sheet, surface plating, precision machining, and plastic molding. As the transmission and connection of electronic signals, if there is a problem with the electronic connector, it will cause the electronic components or even the entire device to fail. The whole connector includes two main parts of the terminal and the plastic. In addition to the selection of the materials, the plating and the die are good. Will affect the quality of the product, of course, the plastic part is the same reason.

III. Manufacture of connectors

The manufacture of electronic connectors, from design to finished product, can be divided into two parts: metal and plastic. In addition to the material selection, the metal part is the main work of electroplating and die; the work of the mold is the mold design, mold opening, injection Forming, and then forming a metal connector with a metal component. The electronic connector is used in electrical products. As the name implies, it acts as a connection for electronic signals or components. It is a multi-component or assembled product and is covered with a metal sheet. Key technologies such as surface plating, precision machining, and plastic molding. As the transmission and connection of electronic signals, if there is a problem with the electronic connector, it will lead to the partial selection of materials, and the quality of the plating and die will affect the quality of the product. Of course, the plastic part is the same. Its manufacturing consists of five major technologies:

1. Die technology;

2. Injection molding technology;

3. Electroplating technology;

4. Assembly technology;

5. Detection technology.

As the trend of connectors is thinner and shorter, and SMT is required, the various manufacturing technologies required also need to increase the accuracy of their requirements. At the same time, the precise concept of the manufacturer must be changed to create a precision connector. The connector will be eliminated in the market because the quality can not compete for electronic components or even the entire device failure. The entire connector includes two main terminal parts of the terminal and plastic.
