The future development direction of wire to board connectors – intelligence and integration

In the future, wire to board connectors will no longer be just physical pathways, but will also have the ability to monitor their status and self diagnose.
Intelligent monitoring function: The intelligent connector integrated with sensor technology can monitor current, voltage, temperature, and plugging status in real time, and achieve fault warning through data feedback. It is particularly suitable for high-voltage platforms of new energy vehicles and industrial predictive maintenance scenarios.
Optoelectronic hybrid transmission: In order to solve the loss problem of copper cables in long-distance high-speed transmission, optical backplane connectors and optoelectronic hybrid connectors will penetrate from the telecommunications field to high-end computing and automotive intelligent driving systems, achieving efficient collaboration of “electric energy, optical data transmission”.
High voltage and high current adaptation: With the popularity of 800V high-voltage platforms for new energy vehicles, connectors need to have higher withstand voltage levels (such as 1000V+) and current carrying capacity, while integrating cooling technology to address the heat dissipation challenges brought by high power density.
