Let's first understand the shrapnel type connector. The shrapnel type connector is widely used in power contact devices, and the most simple shape is the straight cantilever type leaf spring. The resistance of the contact piece must be small, so copper is used and gold-plated most of the time. Shrapnel connectors have the advantages of good electrical conductivity, high tensile elasticity, high shielding effect, good corrosion resistance, long service life, and easy installation. At the same time, shrapnel-type connectors also have problems such as large size, inability to pass large currents, and easy damage to the shrapnel when compressed.
Next, let's talk about the POGO PIN connector. The POGO PIN connector is a spring-type probe formed by a needle, a spring, a needle tube, and three basic components through a precision instrument riveting and pre-compression. It is assembled with plastic at the latest. Become a POGO PIN connector. POGO PIN connectors are generally used for precision connections in electronic products such as mobile phones, communications, automobiles, drones, smart robots, and aerospace, which can improve the corrosion resistance, stability, and durability of these connectors. POGO PIN connector has the advantages of small size, high current resistance, long service life, and waterproof.
Relatively speaking, the POGO PIN connector is more sophisticated than the shrapnel type connector, and has a wider range of use and longer service life. Compared with the POGO PIN connector, the antenna shrapnel also has the advantages of larger area and wider force. Most of the choice of connector still depends on the product designed by itself.
