What are the advantages of floating connectors? "Using a floating connection solution has the following advantages:" 1. Eliminate misalignment when PCB assembly connectors "When assembling various components on a typical PCB, precise alignment of all mounting positions must be ensured. Floating connectors allow for excellent visual control and ensure production structure friendliness. This connection solution enables efficient and cost-effective automated PCB assembly by eliminating tolerances. "

2. Accommodate multiple board-to-board connectors on a single PCB Floating connectors also become very useful when using multiple connection points to connect PCBs. With multiple non-floating connectors, tolerances exist between each interface and the PCB, making accurate alignment very difficult. Therefore, we do not recommend assembling multiple non-floating connectors on the main PCB.

3. Elimination of misalignment during the assembly process Due to defects that are prone to accuracy deviations during the actual assembly process, misalignment may occur. This makes it necessary to consider cumulative tolerances throughout the product design process. With floating connectors, this puzzle can be easily solved.

4. Reduce the stress of the connector after installation. "Even a small misalignment on a non-floating connector that produces a small force will generate stress. As stress builds up over a long period of time, it can be transmitted to the PCB as well as other connectors and solder joints, which can lead to irreversible failure of the host machine. Floating connectors solve this problem by eliminating structures that generate stress due to misalignment. "

5. Increase design flexibility As the overall number of components increases (taking into account misalignment and tolerances), the overall design becomes more challenging. Better tolerance management also increases production costs. Not only do floating connectors help reduce misalignment, but they also add flexibility to the overall design solution.
