A Wire to Board Connector is a connector used to connect wires to a printed circuit board (PCB) and is widely used in electronic devices. This connector is usually composed of two parts: a plug (female head) and a socket (male head), which can achieve a stable connection between the circuit.
The design of wire-to-board connectors is diverse to meet different application requirements. For example, the ComboLock® hybrid wire-to-board connector system offers a 1.00mm pitch signal and 3.00mm pitch power hybrid configuration with an active locking mechanism that saves space and simplifies assembly and cable management. In addition, Minitek® multi-pitch wire-to-board connectors are available in 1.25 mm and 1.50 mm pitch specifications for miniaturized components.
The advantages of wire-to-board connectors include small board area and thin thickness, making them suitable for use in compact products. In addition, these connectors also have good air tightness and beautiful appearance.
Different types of wire-to-board connectors include vertical and right Angle, single and double row, SMT and DIP and other options, suitable for 3C, IPC, industrial, medical, intelligent home appliances and other application scenarios. For example, Phoenix Contact offers a plate connector for wires from 0.08 mm² to 2.2 mm², with a pin pitch of 2.5 mm, 3.71 mm and 5.08 mm, suitable for signal and low-voltage power supplies.
