Amphenol Socapex offers a wide range of board-to-board (PCB) & board-to-cables connectors. Our solutions cover different types of technologies using copper and/or fiber optic and are proposed as high-pin count connector or high-speed solutions. Our connectors are designed to meet performances of main standards as MIL-DTL-55302, MIL-DTL-83513. Proposed from 2.54mm to 1.27mm pitch, with signal, power, RF, optic or high-speed contacts, we have some compliant products with Ethernet or USB protocols. Amphenol Socapex can combines his board-to-cables offer with I/O connectors such as MIL-DTL-38999 to offer a complete harness from the panel to the board. We have a strong expertise in designing and manufacturing board-to-board customized solutions. Our PCB board level connectors are dedicated to harsh environments and are suited for military aerospace, commercial aerospace, ground vehicle, C5ISR and Navy.
What is a PCB connector?
A PCB (Printed Circuit Board) connector is an electrical component used to connect different sections of a circuit board or link a PCB to external devices, enabling the transmission of signals, power, or data.
What factors should I consider when selecting a PCB connector?
When choosing a PCB connector, it’s important to consider:
-
Type of connector (board-to-board, wire-to-board, etc.)
-
Number of contacts required
-
Voltage and current ratings
-
Environmental conditions such as operating temperature and humidity
-
Available space on the PCB
These criteria ensure optimal electrical performance, durability, and integration within your system.
Why is it important to consider environmental conditions for PCB connectors?
Environmental factors like temperature, moisture, and vibration can affect a connector's reliability and lifespan. Choosing a connector rated for your specific operating environment is essential, especially in aerospace, military, and industrial applications.
