These three points need to be considered when designing the spacing of connector pins

In the design of electronic connectors, pin spacing is very important to the performance of the connector. It affects the performance, size, and other aspects of the product. There are three things to consider when choosing the proper spacing of connector pins:

1. Space

Under the same design, the smaller the pitch of the connector pins, the smaller the connector. Connectors with closer pin spacing can be more suitable for interconnection applications of compact devices, and achieve better transmission effects in small spaces.

2. Current carrying

The smaller the pin header size, the lower the current-carrying capacity. The design should ensure that the current-carrying capacity of the connector can meet the application requirements.

3. Other physical limitations

The physical limitation of the connector pin spacing is mainly reflected in the implementation of the connector design. For example, too many pins may make the connector too long and easy to break. Too close pin spacing can also cause inconvenience in production.
