Electronic equipment frequently uses magnetic pogo pin connectors, which are mostly comprised of pogo pin and magnets.

Characteristics of magnetic connection applications

distinctive impedance

There are many connection series that come in both 50Ω and 75Ω standards. In general, 75Ω connectors are used in products with lower frequencies, and the frequency is typically below 4GHZ, especially in consumer electronics videos. Fifty connectors are typically used in high-frequency, high-performance products. According to their products, users should select connectors whose impedance matches their own.

frequency

Users must be aware of their product's operating frequency to choose a connector because each type of RF connector has a frequency range. For example, the electrical performance of the entire machine will be impacted by selecting a connector with a lower operating frequency, and choosing an expensive, high-precision, high-frequency connector will result in waste.

Magnetic connector benefits

1. Dependable contacts

Pogo pin connectors have greater compression and more regular contact than shrapnel connectors of the same size. However, when subjected to a powerful external force, the pogo pin connector's spring pressure changes slightly.

2. Effectively conserves PCB board real estate

For the same amount of compression, pogo pin connectors require less room than dome connectors.

3. A more stable contact point

While the shrapnel connector slides somewhat when compressed, the contact point of the pogo pin connector does not. Instead, the product can achieve better product performance and stable electrical performance thanks to the stable contact point.

4. Extended lifespan

Connectors with pogo pins have a minimum of 10,000 retractable cycles. However, higher-quality pogo pin connectors can be retracted more than 100,000 times, extending the product's service life.

5. Quick production and affordable prices

Pogo pin connectors are the quickest and most affordable way to choose connectors since they don't require opening a mold or stamping and because sample development and mass production take a short time.
