What should I pay attention to when designing a connector

First,  understanding the functional requirements of the connector
It is especially important for connector suppliers to fully understand the needs of their customers and to make the right connectors for their customers.
Second, considering the stability of the connector
First, focusing on the stability of the connector, and some factors may lead to increased costs. Because damaged industrial connectors require reconfiguration, refurbishment, and marking, and such changes may allow the connector to be redesigned for another one to two weeks.

What should I pay attention to when designing a connector


Third, understanding the size of the connector space
Although miniature board-to-board connectors are typically less than 1 mm thick, they are also commonly used in tightly packed applications. To solve potential packaging problems, designers need to consider the traces on the PCB and the additional wires attached to the connectors.
Fourth, considering the design stage of the connector
If you focus too much on designing the overall system and put the industrial connectors into the final stages of design, some issues may cause designers to choose non-standard connectors to complete the design, which not only raises costs but also delays delivery time.
Fifth, clearing the current load capacity of the connector
As the size of the connector is miniaturized, the current load capacity of the connector is also reduced. The general micro connector can handle currents between 200mA and 500mA, which is basically a larger board-to-board connector rated current. In half, it is recommended to increase the number of connector terminals to compensate for the effects of low current carrying capa city of the connector.

sixth, Considering the mechanical stress of the connector
Temperature, shock, and vibration create stress between the connector interface and the circuit of the device, and these mechanical stresses can affect the use of the connector. It is recommended to use an interconnect system to minimize the build-up stress between the mounting structure and the connection points.
In fact, many times we want the connectors we buy to be of high quality, but if we don't choose the manufacturer carefully, it is easy to buy inferior connectors. Yahui Electronics Co., Ltd. is a manufacturer of custom connector cables. We mainly provide customized services. Because we have a professional technical team, we can develop and open various types of connectors ourselves. Our hot products are obd connectors, circular connectors and heavy-duty connectors, etc. If you have any needs, you can contact us and look forward to your message.

  SAE J1939 (hereinafter referred to as J1939) is the recommended standard of the American Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). It is controlled and communicated by the "Truck and Bus Electrical & Electronics Committee" (Track & Bus Electrical & Electronics Committee). Developed and written by the Track & Bus Control and Communications Network Subcommittee. J1939 has become a recognized industry standard and choice for commercial vehicle diagnostics and data communication heavy, off-highway, truck, bus, ship propulsion, power generation, industrial pumping, construction, and material handling machinery. J1939 is a high-level protocol network (CAN) based on Controller Area. It is widely used by the diesel engine industry to provide diagnostic data such as vehicle engine speed, temperature, oil temperature, exhaust emissions, and other customizable options. J1939 connectors are divided into black and green rubber cores, but do you know the difference between t...

Benefits of overmolded connectors and wiring harnesses?

What is overmolding? In short, overmolding is an injection molding process in which two or more materials are used to combine a harness wire and a connector to form a single part, and the cable assembly is placed in a mold. In this process, the first material substrate will be covered by other materials. The overmolding process requires the use of insert molding (single injection) or multiple injection molding techniques to cover rigid plastic parts with TPU layers or other overmolding materials. So what are the benefits of the connector and harness overmolding process? Benefits of overmolding connectors and harnesses: 1. Increase the flexibility of the cable harness exit so that most of the movement between the cable harness and the connector occurs at the cable harness exit. 2. Provide abrasion resistance, impact resistance or impact resistance. 3. Fix the cable assembly by sealing the assembly in plastic. 4. Provide 360 degree strain relief and increase tension. 5. Cr...

​Cars are equipped with diagnostics tool or obd-ii ports

Modern cars have the capacity of a few computers, are tooled with software that contains millions of lines of programming code and produce gigabytes of data, but they are still different from connected cars. ​ A smart vehicle is able to optimize its performance to reduce fuel consumption, show the best path to follow taking into account current traffic and weather conditions, detect errors in the engine and collect information data to negotiate lower insurance rates. Most cars and light trucks are equipped with on-board diagnostics or an OBD II port that provides access to data from the engine control unit (ECU). To get the information you need to plug in an external device. The OBD-II specifications provide a standardized hardware interface - a female 16-pin (2x8) J1962 connector, so a single external device can be used for most car models. It also should have an Internet connection to transfer the collected data. OBD-II connects to the Internet, and generally needs to use th...
