What are the fundamentals, knowledge, concepts, and specifications you need to know to design electrical connectors?

Electrical connector is the key component to connect circuits in electronic equipment, which is responsible for connecting power, signal and control lines. When designing electrical connectors, you need to master some basics, knowledge, ideas and specifications to ensure their performance and reliability. Here are some things to know. 1. Basic knowledge of electricity is an important basis for the design of electrical connectors. Understanding the meaning and calculation method of basic parameters such as current, voltage, resistance, capacitance and inductance can help designers to correctly select the electrical parameters of connectors and ensure their performance indicators. 2. Material science The material of electrical connectors should have good conductivity, mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Understanding the physical and chemical properties of the material and selecting the appropriate material can improve the reliability and life of the connector. 3. Structural design concept The structural design of the connector should meet the requirements of mechanical strength, reliability and ease of use. It is important to understand the advantages and disadvantages of different construction types in order to select the most appropriate connector construction. 4.Testing and verification The performance of the connector shall be tested and verified to ensure compliance with the relevant electrical and mechanical standards. Understand the methods and processes of testing and validation, and follow the specifications. 5. Standards and specifications The design of electrical connectors needs to follow a series of standards and specifications. For example, ISO, IEC, ANSI, JIS and other standards specify the size, material, performance and test methods of connectors. Understanding and following these standards improves connector commonality and interchangeability. 6. Environment and application scenarios The use environment and application scenarios of electrical connectors are factors that need to be considered in the design. Different environments and application scenarios have different requirements for the material and protection of connectors. Understand the environment and application scenarios, and design the appropriate connector. 7. Manufacturing process and engineering understanding the manufacturing process and engineering of connectors can help designers better control the quality and cost of connectors. The manufacturing process includes injection molding, die casting, stamping, pin welding, etc.; the engineering includes mold design, injection molding parameters, die casting parameters, etc. Designing electrical connectors requires knowledge and skills in electrical fundamentals, material science, structural design concepts, testing and verification, standards and specifications, environments and application scenarios, manufacturing processes, and engineering.
