Analyze how electronic connectors are classified
Electronic connectors, also known as electrical connection components in China, are widely used in products from various industries such as computers and interface devices, telecommunications, communication equipment, instruments, video recorders, projectors, televisions, game consoles, audio systems, telephones, vehicles, medical devices, electronics, military, and aviation. They can be classified in several ways based on different criteria:

Selection of Electronic Connectors
Connectors are electromechanical components that connect electrical circuits. Therefore, the electrical parameters of the connector itself are the first considerations when selecting a connector. Proper selection and use of electronic connectors is an important aspect of ensuring circuit reliability.
Connector, connector, terminal distinction
A connector, also known as a CONNECTOR, is a component that electronic engineering technicians frequently encounter. It is also referred to as a plug and socket. Generally, it refers to electrical connectors, which are devices that connect two active devices to transmit current or signals.
How can the wear caused by the sockets in a line-to-board connector be reduced?
An expert should know what a wire-to-board connector is; it refers to the connector between wires and circuit boards. The main function of the connector is to transmit power and signals, which is why wire-to-board connectors are considered the ancestors of all connectors. Depending on different uses and requirements, there are countless types of wire-to-board connectors. Most of the time, we distinguish them based on the distance between pins and the current and voltage transmitted.
The future electronic connectors will be faster, smaller, smarter, and more environmentally friendly.
As the Internet of Things and Industry 4.0 become new market engines, component manufacturers like TE face increasingly heavy responsibilities. In James's view, the core of these market hotspots can be summed up in the word "connection"—the connections between vehicles, between household appliances, and between security facilities, including connections between devices in industrial applications. However, the requirements for connectors are becoming increasingly stringent.
The classification of electronic connectors can be analyzed as follows:
The distinction between connectors, plugs, and terminals: 1. **Connectors**: These are devices used to join electrical circuits together. They can be used to connect wires to each other or to other components, allowing for the transmission of electrical signals or power. 2. **Plugs**: Plugs are a type of connector that is designed to be inserted into a socket or receptacle. They typically have pins or prongs that fit into corresponding holes in the socket, establishing a connection for power or data transfer. 3. **Terminals**: Terminals are points of connection for wires in an electrical circuit. They are often used to connect wires to a circuit board or to other components. Terminals can be screw-type, push-in, or soldered, and they provide a secure connection for electrical flow.
