​Common circular power connector knowledge

-
In the electronics world, connectors are used to transmit power and signals and to transmit network and data signals throughout the device. These multi-pin contact designs are easy to install and remove, and round power connectors have evolved over the years to be the most common because they are more compact and offer a smaller envelope than rectangular power connectors. Different applications require different designs, here are some common circular power connector knowledge.

Common circular power connector knowledge

The circular power connector effectively disconnects and reconnects the power cord from the device. They were developed to replace hard-wired power cables, which are often damaged or require extensive repairs when replacing power supplies. The introduction of a circular power connector provides a fast and compact solution to this problem. It is also used in a wide range of applications, from medical equipment to street and vehicle lighting, to industrial machines to consumer electronics.
Their round shape is ideal for a variety of locking methods, such as threaded push-pull and bayonet locking designs, which are usually made of two materials, metal and plastic. Its rubber is also available for waterproof or dust-proof connectors. These locking methods are easy to operate, and the round connector also packs a large number of contacts into a relatively compact size, offering a wide range of pin counts and configurations. When selecting a specified circular power connector, international power standards such as IP and Mil-spec must be considered. The IP standard helps determine if the connector is dust, water, etc.
In fact, understanding a large amount of data is critical to the safe designation of a circular power connector. First you must know the voltage and current of each contact to ensure that the connector has the right number of contacts to meet the power requirements of your device. Second, understand all the features that the connector needs to do. For example, if you need a compact design that can carry power and coaxial signals, a hybrid design may be the best choice.

  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...
