Compared to a conventional PCB connector, an interface block as a connecting element has the advantage of a more flexible application and its possible uses are manifold. Starting with board-to-board contacts, directly on the PCB, via hand-held devices, as charging contacts, up to chargers for high-quality laptops, smart phones and e-bikes and a multitude of other applications - everywhere Battery Probes or contacts called Spring Loaded Pogo Pins are used for the transmission of battery charging currents, but also for the transmission of signals.
The contacts in the plastic block are ideally suited to compensate for differences in height and allow a large tolerance range when contacting the counter contact. The interface blocks thus have a large positioning tolerance and compensate for installation tolerances between the components to be connected.
In addition to the SMD variant, PTR HARTMANN also offers THR and soldering variants. These allow a high degree of individual designs and applications.
Spring contacts and other products from PTR Hartmann can be found in our internet shop.
