How to troubleshoot connector problems

At present, electronic connectors are more and more widely used in daily life. Due to the small size of such devices, various situations often arise during use. For some common faults, we also need to do corresponding analysis work. What do we do when a failure occurs?

poor contact

From a structural point of view, the metal conductor inside the connector is the core part of the whole device, which is used to connect the voltage or current of the external wire or cable, and the data signal equals that they cooperate with each other and are transmitted to the mating connector contacts. Therefore, the design of the connector requires excellent structure, good stability and good electrical conductivity. There are many reasons for this, such as the unreasonable design of the contact part of the connector, the problem of material selection, or the processing size does not meet the design requirements, and the installation method is rough or uneven, which will lead to poor connection between the connector and the connector. . equipment. Therefore, one of the issues to consider when an electronic device fails is the contact issue. All connectors must be checked. If the connection is tight, other issues must be considered. Not an internal connection issue.

Poor insulation

This mainly refers to the influence of the external environment. Generally in this case, the performance will be unstable, the leakage will be terrible, and it will cause unsafe factors in use, which can be observed intuitively. But when this problem occurs, it must be stopped and replaced directly. Connector.

There is also a problem involved here, which is the reason for poor insulation. Because there are excess substances on the surface or inside of the insulating equipment, such as common dust, burrs and other adsorbents, the insulating material absorbs moisture for a long time, and there will be short-circuit, leakage, aging and other faults. If the insulating material does not meet the standards, it is our mistake. choose. If there is a situation caused by environmental impact, it is caused by our improper use and poor protection, especially in a humid and corrosive environment, the damage to the insulation layer of the connector. Tangled, this should be avoided as much as possible to avoid more unnecessary losses, especially the protection of leakage, which may also involve personal safety. Therefore, special attention should be paid to the protection of insulators during use to prevent damage due to poor insulators. fault.

Connector not secured

Due to poor fixation or slight shaking, the connector will lose power, and in more serious cases, the connection will be interrupted and the product will disintegrate. Usually this situation can be avoided by changing the installation method. Special attention should be paid to the rationality of installation and the close combination of installation and use. , this problem will not occur, so when choosing, try to design products that are closely connected, meet the requirements, and have relatively mature technology.
