Connectors Differences between connectors and terminals

Part of the connector industry practitioners just started to contact, may not be able to distinguish between connectors, connectors, terminals, three concepts, attributable to the scale and practical application of the differences. First, the concept of difference 1. Connector is a large class, the domestic said it is a connector, plugs or sockets, electronic engineers and technicians often need to come into contact with a kind of parts, most of which refers to the electrical connector, which connects the two components of the electronic products for the transmission of electric current or signals. 2. connectors are a kind of electronic circuitry positioning joints, it is made of plug-in and connector two parts, in general Under normal circumstances can be completely separated, so the connector can also be referred to as a connector. 3. terminal is used to complete the electrical connection of the assembly products, its function is to facilitate the connection of wires, in practice, is a section of the metal sealed inside the insulating plastic, both ends have holes, can be spiked into the wire.

Second, the attribution of scale differences 1." connectors = connectors " is a large category, while the terminal block is only " connectors " in a kind of. Connector is the connection between the line and the line, the connector is the connection between the line and the board, in our real life, people tend to recognize the same type of product ambiguity. 2. In the category of electrician or electrical: connectors, connectors belong to the same class of products. Often referred to as a kind of no need to use things, the male and female end of the interconnection, a plug a screw can be quickly connected to the electronic components. Terminals, commonly understood as the need to use something, such as a screwdriver, cold pliers, etc., can be two points of articulation together in the electronic products, generally used for power input, output, etc. 3. Terminals are part of the connector, the connector is the general term. In fact, we often see the connector, usually including rubber shell (housing) and terminals (terminal). Rubber shell is generally plastic-based, maintenance effect; terminals are generally metal, at both ends of the product to play the effect of conduction. Third, the practical application of the differences 1. Electrical connectors referred to as connectors, also known as connectors, is a sub-category of electronic components, mainly used to connect circuits and circuits. Today's electronic industrial production, the connector line connection can be said to be ubiquitous, so the connector's application scale is very wide, can be indirectly used in various industries.2. There are many specific varieties of connectors, such as rectangular connectors, circular connectors, ladder connectors and so on. Terminal block is a kind of connector, usually belongs to the rectangular connector, its scale of application is also relatively single, generally used in the field of electrical and electronic, used for PCB circuit boards, printed circuit boards and distribution boxes inside and outside the articulation, etc. 3. The scale of application of the terminals is becoming more and more extensive, and the varieties are also increasing. In addition to PCB circuit board terminals, now widely used Z hardware terminals, screw terminals, spring terminals. Specialized terminal rows and terminal boxes in the power industry, including single-layer, double-layer, current, voltage and so on. In short, connectors, connectors, terminals, three electronic components are the same concept of different forms of expression of the use of different industries, based on different applications, the use of products, the use of positioning and set up a different name. Nowadays, the connector shopping malls, seeking cost-effective, so that the technical level of high-quality connectors continue to improve, but also so that some connectors are being eliminated.
