1.What is Board To Board Connector?
Board To Board Connector, its basic concept refers to the connection of different circuit boards together, is currently the strongest transmission capacity of all connector product types connector products, mainly used in power systems, communication networks, financial manufacturing, elevators, industrial automation, medical equipment, office equipment, home appliances, military manufacturing and other industries.

At present, the main pitch of the board-to-board connectors are 0.50mm, 0.60mm, 0.80mm, 1.00mm, 1.25mm, 1.50mm, 2.00mm, 2.50mm, 2.54mm, 3.96mm.


2, the classification and characteristics of board-to-board connector
Board To Board Connector, according to the different ways of connection between the circuit boards, divided into different types, each type has its own characteristics, the following to introduce you to this aspect one by one:.


What is Board To Board Connecto

First, the row of pins row of females / pins
Pin and row of female, also known as row of plugs, is the cheapest and most common way to connect.
Application scenarios: low-end, large-size smart devices, development boards, debug boards, etc.
Advantages: cheap, convenient, hard connection is very solid, strong over-current capability, convenient for soldering and testing.
Disadvantages: large size, difficult to bend, large spacing, difficult to do hundreds of pin connection (too big).

Second, some high-end board-to-board plug
More dense than the row of pins, used a lot on compact products.
Application scenario: conventional smart hardware products are basically in use, very widely used.
Advantages: pin number, small size, 1 cm length can do 40 feet (the same size of the row of plugs can only do less than 20).
Disadvantages: expensive, can not often plug, structure design needs to be fixed.

Third, thickened board-to-board connectors
Board-to-board, board-to-wire, can be detached, can be combined, can be inserted in the row of pins.
Use scenario: development boards, test boards, large and fixed devices (such as computer chassis wiring)
Advantages: cheap, common, with the use of row of pins, very easy to connect and measure
Disadvantages: large size, badly fixed, not suitable for mass production scenarios.Wire To Board Connector

Fourth, the FPC connector plug / ZIF connector
Many smart hardware devices, the need to pull the signal from the motherboard, FPC can be bent, small size, versatile shape, is a good choice.
Usage scenarios: motherboard and subboard connection, motherboard and peripheral connection, the need to bend the line, compact product space.
Advantages: both compact and cheap.Wire To Board Connector
