Rectangular Connectors - Arrays, Edge Type, Mezzanine (Board to Board)

Rectangular connector applications can be found in a wide variety of industries, including transportation, automation, medical, and test & measurement. Different types of rectangular connectors offer different connection opportunities. These types can include Array, Edge Type, and Mezzanine (also called Board to Board).

Array Connectors

Array connectors are also called connector headers or socket terminals. These connectors are typically used to create electrical connections by inserting pins into a receptacle connector. Thick and thin film array connectors can be used in high-power applications, while high-density and low-voltage connectors are used for specialized systems. Typical fields of application for array connectors include automotive, computer, telecommunications and consumer electronics.

Edge Type Connectors

Edge type connectors are an ideal choice for systems that need reliable connectivity in confined spaces. Also known as “IDC” (Insulated Disconnect Connectors), edge type connectors are durable and can withstand harsh environments. They connect cables to printed circuit boards, and are commonly used in automobiles, storage systems, and industrial control applications.

Mezzanine (Board-to-Board) Connectors

Mezzanine (or Board-to-Board) connectors provide a reliable connection between two PCB (Printed Circuit Board) devices. These connectors typically feature two Types: Stack Height Connectors and Co-planar Connectors. The first type is designed to reduce the need for vertical mounting. The latter type is a low profile connector and is often used for power and/or signal connections. Common applications of mezzanine connectors include computer, medical, telecommunications, automotive and consumer electronics.
