Terminals - Wire to Board Connectors

The terminals that make up a Wire to Board Connector system are designed to provide connection and protection from vibration, abrasion, and environmental conditions. Such a terminal system also helps to control noise, provide electrical insulation, facilitate a reliable electrical connection and achieve mechanical support. The use of a Wire to Board Connector system can mean the difference between a reliable, low-noise electrical connection or one that is plagued by signal degradation, and can significantly reduce the time and money spent on rework.

The use of wire to board connectors is important in many applications, such as industrial control systems, medical and safety equipment, telecommunications systems, consumer electronics, and automotive. Additionally, wire to board connections are necessary in many military applications where maximum reliability is a must.

The primary application of this connection type is in board level interconnects where a terminal is soldered to a board or surface mount pad, and wires are inserted from below.

The most common Wire to Board Connector system is the 170197-2 system. It features a two-piece lockable connector, with one piece being housed on the board and the other connected by insulated cables. A single connection includes an insulation displacement contact on each end that mechanically joins and electrically connects the wires to the board. The retention latch holds the contacts tightly in the connectors, ensuring a secure connection.

The working principle of the 170197-2 Wire to Board Connector system is simple. The contact pin is made of brass and has a narrow opening for inserting a stranded wire. The wire is connected to the contact pin via an insulation displacement contact technology, wherein the insulation of the wire is cut by the contact pin and partially spreads out within it in order to make a secure electrical connection. The contacts are held together by a snap-in ratchet mechanism. The ratchet is designed to securely remain in the locked position, preventing accidental disconnection of the contacts.

When a Wire to Board Connector system is used in such applications, it provides a reliable, secure connection that is both dust and liquid proof. Its shock and vibration resistance and environmental resistance make it suitable for use in a variety of environments and with a diverse range of electronic components.

The 170197-2 Wire to Board Connection system is an ideal choice for applications requiring reliable, mechanical and electrical connections. Its versatility and stability make it well-suited for a variety of markets and applications.
