Energy storage connectors link different circuit boards, offering strong transmission capabilities and standing out as a top-tier product in the connector category. These connectors are widely used across industries, including finance, manufacturing, medical equipment, network communication, elevators, industrial automation, power systems, household appliances, office supplies, and military manufacturing. The interfaces between circuit boards vary, each with distinct characteristics. Here’s a brief overview:
Pin headers and busbars are cost-effective, common interfaces for low-end, large-scale smart products, development boards, and debugging boards. Their advantages include affordability, ease of use, and suitability for wire bonding and inspection. However, they are bulky, difficult to bend, have wide spacing, and are not ideal for connecting hundreds of pins due to their size.
Board-to-board connectors are more compact and densely packed than pin headers, making them widely used in smart hardware products. Their small size allows for up to 40 pins per centimeter, ideal for high-density connections. However, they are more expensive, must be fixed in design, and are not suited for frequent plugging.
Thickened board-to-board connectors, designed for use with pin headers, are suitable for large, fixed equipment such as main chassis cabling or development boards. These connectors are inexpensive, universally compatible with pins, provide precise connections, and are easy to measure. However, they are bulky, difficult to repair, and not ideal for mass production.
FPC connectors are flexible and compact, making them excellent for pulling data signals from motherboards in intelligent products. They are commonly used in power circuits, for connecting motherboards to external equipment, or in tight spaces where flexibility is required. Their small size and low cost are significant advantages.
