I often encounter some customers who confuse the connector, connector, and terminal. Some customers think that the three are the same concept. When the Shenzhen connector manufacturer provides pre-sales service to customers, here is a share for everyone. The relevant knowledge of the three, so that everyone can understand the connection and difference of the three more clearly.

I. Q: What are the concepts of “connector”, “connector” and “terminal”?
1. Connector, also known as connector, plug and socket in China, generally refers to the electrical connector, that is, the device that connects two active devices, transmits current or signal (electric signal or optical signal), its role is very simple: Between the blocked or isolated circuits in the circuit, a bridge of communication is established to allow current to flow and the circuit to perform a predetermined function.
2. The connector refers to an electrical connector, which is a positioning connector for connecting electronic circuits. It is composed of two parts, a plug and a connector. In a normal state, the connector can be completely separated, so the connector can also be called a connector.
3. The terminal is a kind of accessory product used to realize electrical connection. It is used to facilitate the connection of the wires. In fact, it is a piece of metal sealed inside the insulating plastic. There are holes at both ends, and the wires can be inserted and wired. The terminals can be divided into plug-in type terminals, European-style terminals and so on.

Second, Q: Is there a affiliation between the "connector", "connector" and "terminal"?
1. Connector and connector are the first major category, which is a general term. The difference is that the connector is the connection of the wire and the wire. The connector is the connection between the wire and the plate. In the life, the two are often the same type. The product, and the terminal block belongs to one of the major categories of products.
2. The common understanding of the connection mode of the three, the connector and the connector are electronic components that can be quickly connected by inserting or unscrewing the male and female ends, and the terminal needs to use some kind of terminal. Tools, such as screwdrivers and cold-pressing pliers, can connect two connection points to each other, which are generally used for power input and output.

Third, ask: "Connector", "connector", "terminal" are how to apply?
1. The connector is mainly used in the connection between the circuit and the circuit. It is the core basic component necessary for the electrical connection of the circuit system. The main application fields of the connector are smart home, automobile, communication, computer and peripheral, industrial, military and aerospace. As the scope of development and application will become wider and wider, it will be applied to various industries.
2. The most widely used terminals are PCB board terminals, in addition to hardware terminals, nut terminals, spring terminals, etc. There are many types of connectors, such as circular connectors, rectangular connectors, stepped connectors, and terminal blocks. Generally speaking, it is a rectangular connector. The application range of the terminal block is relatively simple. It is generally used in the field of electrical and electronic, and is used for connecting the inside and outside of PCB circuit boards, printed boards and power distribution cabinets.
In fact, the connector, the connector, and the terminal are different application expressions belonging to the same concept, and are commonly referred to as different practical applications. More connectors to receive relevant industry information and product details: www.kbztw.com
