Automotive connectors are components that electronic engineering technicians often come into contact with. Their function is simple: to build a communication bridge between disconnected or isolated circuits within the circuit, allowing current to flow and enabling the circuit to perform its intended function.

Application characteristics of automotive connectors

From the perspective of the purpose of using automotive connectors, in order to make the car travel better, the reliability of the connectors in terms of sealing during use, fire resistance during driving, and the driving performance of the car. The connector can display shielding performance and temperature control performance. When discussing the sealing performance of automotive connectors, it is generally not only about the sealing performance of water in cars.

During the operation of a car, power supply is a very important source of energy, which not only affects the normal operation of the engine, but also frequently involves the use of electricity while driving. Therefore, in the power system of automobiles, there are different divisions of automobile connectors. There are certain sealing measures that can be implemented between male connectors and equipment, between male connectors and cables, between male and female connectors, and between female connectors and cables.

In order to achieve the sealing performance of automotive connectors, sealing rings are a common tool that can not only achieve the fixing effect between different holes, but also achieve the sealing effect. Not only can it ensure the stable operation of the equipment, but it can also guarantee the waterproof performance of the equipment during operation. Seals mostly use materials such as silicone rubber, which are made by a certain degree of chemical change between liquid silicon and solid silicon.

At present, electronic circuit technology is an important aspect of the automotive industry, including not only driver entertainment, but also the control system of the driving car. Electronic circuit technology plays an important role in the stable operation of the car. In order to ensure the stable operation of electronic circuit technology, many automotive technologies are now applied in production.

This shielding technology not only provides protection in electronic circuits, but also has anti-interference and anti radiation functions on components, and can protect the stability of automotive connectors. This shielding technology can be divided into two types: internal and external.

When using external shielding to protect car connectors, two identical shielding shells are generally assembled together to form a shielding layer that can cover the entire length of the connector. The shell must have sufficient locking structure to ensure stable installation. In addition, the shielding material used should not only undergo electroplating treatment, but also be treated to prevent chemical corrosion.
