board-to-board connector
Board-to-board (BTB) connectors are used to connect printed circuit boards (PCB), electronic components that contain a conductive pattern printed on the surface of the insulating base in an accurate and repeatable manner. Each terminal on a BTB connector is connected to a PCB.
A BTB connector includes housing and a specific number of terminals. The terminal is made from a conductive material (mostly copper alloy), and plated to improve conductivity and antirust. Terminals transmit the current/signal between PCBs connected by BTB; the housing is made of insulating material (mostly plastic).
Classification
BTB connectors are divided up into four mounting types:
- Through-hole technology
- Surface-mount technology
- Plug-in technologyhttp://www.we-online.de/web/de/intelligente_systeme/neu__skedd/startseite.php. 2015-08-26.
- Solderless stacking mezzanine technology{{Cite web|url=https://www.airborn.com/products/connectors/rz-series-home-page|title=RZ Series|website=www.airborn.com|access-date=2018-08-22}}
BTB connectors are selected by considering the mounting method, pin pitch, number of the rows (aka number of the ways), pin length, stacker height etc.
