1, connectors, basic knowledge
Connector from the transmission of signals to points, can be divided into electrical connectors(MIL-C-26482) and optical connectors, here only for the electrical connectors as the help content.
Connector consists of: from the material terms, including metal and plastic.
Connector construction: the connector of at least two components: one is a conductor (metal) and the other part of the insulating material (plastic); There is also a mask with the metal shell.
Metal Material selection:
Metal material selected points:
1. Mechanical life
Connector mechanical life is plug life, usually defined as 500 to 1000 times. In achieving this required mechanical life, the connector contact resistance, Insulation resistance and voltage and other indicators should not exceed the specified value.
2. Electrical Performance
Rated voltage Rated current contact resistance, etc.
3. Environmental parameters
Environmental parameters are mainly temperature, humidity, temperature, abrupt changes in atmospheric pressure and corrosive environment. Connector in the use and storage, transportation environment in which its performance has a significant impact, it must be based on the actual environmental conditions, selection of the appropriate connector material.
4. Termination method
Termination method refers to the connector contact with the wire or cable connections.
Welding crimping wrap punctured screw
Plastic material selection
