The following is a brief introduction to the specific classification of automotive connectors. In general, the types of automotive connectors can be divided into six aspects: function, installation position, connection structure, shape specification, size specification, shape specification, and operating frequency.
1.Electrical functions: electronic control module (vehicle computer), lamp holder, temperature sensor, central electrical box, air conditioning wiring harness, audio entertainment
2. Classification by installation location: chassis system, instrument system, engine system, safety system
3. The connection structure of line-line-board-board, flexible circuit board FPC, chip package (IC pin type)
4. Dimensions: rectangle, round
5. According to shape and specification: round tube (ordinary, coaxial), rectangular tube (sealed, non-sealed)
6. Divided by operating frequency: low frequency and high frequency (limited to 3 MHz)
For other automotive connectors according to their use, special structure, installation method, special performance, etc., they can still be classified according to other classification methods, but generally only to highlight certain characteristics and uses, and the basic classification has not exceeded the above classification principles.
