The Key Factors And Problems That Need To Be Paid Attention To When Choosing A Connector

In the connection system, the connector components may only be part of the entire connection system, and sometimes they are ignored. However, when designing and applying high-speed interconnection connection systems, detecting the presence of speed bumps on the signal path is a crucial part. In order to achieve a Z-best signal path, electronic engineers must have an understanding of the technical issues that affect the signal path factors, such as: lamination, tolerance, through-hole design, trace width, plating, and copper etching. These design lists basically include connector components, so the selection of connectors in the connection system is also required. Choosing the correct connector should provide the following 4 key factors;

1. The connector product can be reliably connected to the PCB.

2. The connector product can be reliably connected to the cable system.

3. The connector product should be matched with impedance at the target bandwidth.

4. The connector product must have an insertion loss lower than the target bandwidth.

We know that after years of development, connector products have been divided into many types. Due to the design and production, the type of terminals, the length of internal signals, and the use of different materials, you should ask the connector supplier when choosing connector products. To determine whether it meets our selection requirements, such as the following 7 problem points;

1. Do I want the connector pins to match?

2. How to terminate the other pins of the connector?

3. Is there any stump in the connector product I chose?

4. Has the material of the connector passed the environmental protection certification?

5. Are the data related to connector product measurement accurate?

6. What is the terminal type used for characterization of the connector product?

7. What layout does the connector use in the provided data?

As a high-quality connector supplier, you should be able to answer these questions for each customer, provide accurate measurement related data in the connection system, and provide customer product design impact assessment on the use of connector components.
