What is a waterproof connectors and M8 connectors　

Waterproof connectors are a class of products different from ordinary consumer connectors. Due to its high adaptability in complex environments and reliable stability of performance, it is currently a type of connector widely used in industrial, outdoor and other scenarios, and is favored by the market and users. Well, today let’s talk about the topic of waterproof connectors.

What is a waterproof connector? The waterproof connector is a highly reliable connector with water resistance that can be used in wet, rainy or submerged environments. The design of waterproof connectors usually uses a tight and reliable sealing structure to ensure that the interior of the connector is not invaded by external moisture, so as to ensure the stability and electrical performance of power, signal and data connections. At present, it is widely used in outdoor, ship, automobile, medical and other equipment and occasions requiring waterproof performance. Connector is an electronic engineering and technical personnel often contact a component, its role is very simple, in the circuit is blocked or isolated between the circuit, set up a bridge of communication, so that the current flow, so that the circuit to achieve the intended function, the connector form and structure is ever-changing, which is mainly composed of four basic structural components, respectively, contact parts, shell, Insulators, accessories.

Modular planning of M8 connectors, by using minimum system support and flexible pin distribution to fix the direction of the electrical signal, can minimize the planned energy and resources, which not only improves power, but also brings a number of significant advantages, mainly including the following:

Reusability of planning: Whether you choose a custom internal board planning or a commercially completed subcard or FMC standard, it helps to apply the existing FPGA/card loading plan to the new I/O from the start, just by replacing the FMC module and adjusting the FPGA plan slightly. Data throughput: Supports high signal transmission rate, the potential total bandwidth between the sub-card and the carrier card is 40gb/s, multiple I/O: provides sufficient I/O amount, tight, and occupies small space.

Compatibility: Standardized power supply, standard signal definition, increased interoperability stability: wide area contact, selection of BGA package, and added to the carrier card with seismic performance and single-width module support M8 connector. The FMC standard provides two scales to optimize the board according to the requirements of space and demand or more flexibly. They both support single-ended and differential signal transfer rates of up to 2GB/s, while the serial M8 connector has a high signal transfer rate. The M8 connectors all use the same mechanical M8 connector, the only difference is what signal is actually ported, so the card with the LPC M8 connector can also be plugged into the HPC, as long as it is planned properly, it can provide a lot of derived features when plugged in. In addition to 68 user-defined single-ended signals or 34 user-defined differences, the LPC M8 connector offers serial transceivers, clocks, JTAG interfaces, and I2C interfaces as optional support for basic intelligent platform management interface commands. In the early stages of planning, M8 connector engineers often pay too much attention to the planning of the entire system, and put the M8 connector in the final stage of planning. They thought the M8 connector was simple, so they were able to put the relevant planning to the final stage. Then they fell into their own plan. In early planning, m8 connector engineers tend to be too focused on planning the entire system and put the m8 connector in the final stage of planning. The head of product development Engineering said they thought the M8 connector was simple enough that they were able to move the planning to the final stage. Then they fell into their own plan. Too many planners have rushed past the final stages of planning for the m8 connector. Understand space constraints. While microboard-to-board m8 connectors are typically less than 1 mm thick, they are also often used in tightly packed applications. To address potential packaging issues, planners need to consider wiring on the PCB board, as well as additional wires attached to the M8 connector. “Because the spacing is smaller, the wires and wires need to be lined up narrower. When it comes to system planning, you need to consider these triggers. For example, if the rear m8 connector has another component on the back, it may not be easy to access. Ultimately, planners also need to be aware that externally mounted equipment sometimes cannot handle smaller parts. As the size of the M8 connector decreases, so does the current load capacity of the M8 connector. To compensate for low current carrying capacity, planners may need to increase the number of terminals.
