An introduction to circular connectors
The past week, I’ve seen several press releases come across my desk for circular connectors, so it got me thinking about what they are used for. I’m working on getting materials specifically about M12 circular connectors, but here’s a quick rundown on what circular connectors are used for, mostly in part from information supplied by […]
Micro-sized connectors for multiple pin interconnection systems
Micro-sized, (0.050 in. pitch), connectors in compact metal or over-molded polymer shells offer major size and weight reductions for circuits requiring multiple pin interconnection systems. Omnetics offers an extensive array of micro-circular connector styles and formats using its specially designed flex-pin contacts. These configurations are available solder cup, thru-hole and pre-wired up to 26 gauge […]
Molex to showcase military, aerospace connectors at MILCOM
I’ve got military and aerospace connectors on the brain this week, with back-to-back posts from contributing author Dave Brearley about the importance of connectors to the industry, as well as a recent release from Molex, Lisle, Ill., about its offerings to these markets. Key to all three of these articles is the ability to safely […]
Special considerations for military connectors
A colleague in the standards community once pointed out that “The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them.” Military standard connectors clearly illustrate the wisdom in his statement. Military standards bodies have done their best to specify individual connectors in such a way that multiple sources can be used without […]
