What is a connector?

Connectors are a component that our electronic engineering technicians often come into contact with. Its role is very simple: to bridge the communication between the blocked or isolated circuits in the circuit, so that the current flows, so that the circuit achieves the intended function. Connectors are an indispensable part of an electronic device. You will always find one or more connectors when you look at the path through which the current flows. The form and structure of the connector are ever-changing. There are various types of connectors depending on the application object, frequency, power, and application environment. For example, connectors for lighting on the court and connectors for hard drives, as well as connectors for igniting rockets, are quite different. But no matter what kind of connector, it must ensure smooth current and reliable circulation. In general terms, the connection of the connector is not limited to current. In today's rapid development of optoelectronic technology, in the optical fiber system, the carrier that transmits the signal is light, and the glass and plastic replace the wires in the ordinary circuit, but the optical signal Connectors are also used in the vias, which function the same as circuit connectors.



 

 

Why use a connector?

Imagine what would happen if there were no connectors? At this time, the circuits are permanently connected together by continuous conductors. For example, the electronic device is connected to the power supply, and both ends of the connecting wires must be fixedly fixed to the electronic device and the power source by some method (for example, soldering). In this way, both production and use bring a lot of inconvenience. Taking a car battery as an example, assuming that the battery cable is fixedly soldered to the battery, the automobile manufacturer increases the workload for installing the battery, increasing the production time and cost. When the battery needs to be replaced, the car must be sent to the repair station, the old one is removed from the weld, and the new one is welded. This requires more labor. With the connector you can save a lot of trouble, buy a new battery from the store, disconnect the connector, remove the old battery, install a new battery, and reconnect the connector. This simple example illustrates the benefits of a connector. It makes design and production processes easier and more flexible, reducing production and maintenance costs.


 

Connector benefits

1. Improve the production process

The connector simplifies the assembly process of electronic products and simplifies the mass production process

2. Easy to repair

If an electronic component fails, the failed component can be quickly replaced when the connector is installed.

3. Easy to upgrade

As technology advances, components can be updated with connectors, replacing old ones with new, more sophisticated components

4. Improve design flexibility

The use of connectors gives engineers greater flexibility when designing and integrating new products, as well as when building components with components.
