Lighting connector: one of the key components of the solid state lighting system; Now, seemingly insignificant connection components are often related to the entire lighting system can ultimately meet the corresponding reliability, waterproof grade, long life and other design requirements. Connector has become one of the key components of the solid state lighting system. Solid-state lighting has energy saving, environmental protection, long life, maintenance-free, easy to control and so on. Solid state lighting connector series products are interconnect products designed and marketed specifically for the needs of LED lighting applications. Typically, this means focusing on reducing product and assembly costs, primarily for wire-to-board applications with relatively low expected mating life and current capacities of a few amps or less. We offer the industry's widest variety of lighting connectors; Lighting Connector (Lighting Connector), everything. WorldTradeElectronics.com is a distributor for many original lighting connector manufacturers and offers lighting connectors from a number of industry manufacturers, including Amphenol, AVX, Hirose, Molex, TE Connectivity, erni, and many other well-known manufacturers.
1, what what is lighting connector? :
Lighting is a measure to illuminate work and living places or individual objects using various light sources. The use of sun and sky light is called "natural lighting"; the use of artificial light sources is called "artificial lighting". The primary purpose of lighting is to create good visibility and a comfortable and pleasant environment.
Solid State Lighting Connectors.
The Solid State Lighting Connector family of products are interconnects designed and marketed specifically for the needs of LED lighting applications. Typically, this means focusing on reducing product and assembly costs, primarily for wire-to-board applications with relatively low expected mating life and current capacities of a few amps or less. Nowadays, seemingly insignificant connecting components often have a bearing on the ability of the entire lighting system to ultimately meet the appropriate design requirements for reliability, waterproof rating, and long life. Connectors have become one of the key components of the solid-state lighting system. Solid-state lighting has energy saving, environmental protection, long life, maintenance-free, easy to control and so on.
LED Lighting Connectors.
LED lighting connector is a component that we electronic engineers and technicians often come into contact with. 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.LED lighting connector is an indispensable part of the electronic equipment, along the current flow of the pathway observation, you will always find that there are one or more connectors. Connector form and structure is ever-changing, with the application object, frequency, power, application environment and so on, there are a variety of different forms of connectors. For example, the connector used to light a lamp on a ball field is very different from the connector used to light a hard disk drive, or the connector used to light a rocket. In terms of generalization, LED lighting connectors are connected not only limited to the current, in the rapid development of optoelectronics technology today, fiber optic systems, the carrier of the signal is light, glass and plastic instead of ordinary circuits in the wire, but the optical signal pathway also use connectors, their role is the same as the circuit connector. But no matter what kind of connector, to ensure that the current flows smoothly and continuously and reliably.

2、What are the performance of lighting connectors? .:
Connectors are used in a wide range of applications. For example, in the lighting equipment, will also use the connector related products. Selection of a connector used in lighting equipment, we must consider taking into account its electrical, mechanical, environmental and other basic performance reliability, the following for you to popularize the knowledge of lighting connector performance.
When it comes to the performance of lighting connectors, the three main aspects involved are electrical, mechanical and environmental, with the following specific requirements.
Electrical performance requirements for lighting connectors.
In terms of electrical performance, lighting connectors must be compatible with the current levels and voltages of the application, and in addition to the basic continuous voltages and currents that need to be considered, transients and surges that may occur during the life cycle of the connected product need to be recognized.
Second, the mechanical properties of the lighting connector requirements.
Vibration and shock resistance is the basic mechanical properties of the connector, but also need to consider some other mechanical properties of the connector requirements. For example, the physical size of the connector and the problem of coordination, not only the need for close contact spacing, in order to encapsulate more contacts in a smaller area, should also consider the reliability of the lighting connector and the equipment connection with the problem of reliability.
Third, the environmental performance requirements of lighting connectors.
Temperature, salt spray resistance, sealing and shielding properties of connectors are often major environmental considerations, so lighting connectors must be able to adapt to the temperature range of the application, have good corrosion resistance, shielding properties from electromagnetic environments, and sealing properties in humid environments.

3、What are the brand manufacturers that produce lighting connectors and what are the lighting connectors produced by TE Connectivity? :
The vast array of applications for modern lighting solutions - from lighting units in automotive dashboards to accent lighting used in homes and businesses to energy-efficient lighting systems for streets and buildings - requires efficient controllers and connectivity solutions to work with them.TE Connectivity/Molex/Hirose Electric/Amphenol/Phoenix Contact/Panasonic/Kyocera/JKL Components/Ledil/Dialight/JAE Electronics/ERNI and other interconnects The company offers many different connector solutions for a wide range of lighting applications. These solutions are highly reliable, compact in design and have a high current-carrying capacity to meet the requirements of modern lighting technology, especially LED applications. Below is a brief overview of what lighting connectors are manufactured by TE Connectivity:
From outdoor fixtures to commercial refrigeration, lighting innovations continue to capitalize on a wide range of technological advances. Whether you're creating a new system or enhancing an existing design, TE is the lighting solutions provider you need, offering electromechanical and electronic components that seamlessly integrate control and transfer power and data across multiple building systems.
LED Holders: Solderless Termination of On-Board (CoB) LEDs: LED holders are circular sockets or slots for mechanically fixing and electrically connecting On-Board (CoB) LEDs to be pressed into heat sinks.LUMAWISE LED holders can be mounted without the use of soldering tools, allowing the LEDs to be directly connected to the heat sink using 2 M3 screws at a standardized screw spacing. In addition, they always have an optics landing area at the same distance as the secondary optics.
POKE-IN CONNECTORS: TE's plug-in connectors are designed for wire-to-board connector systems. This connector is soldered to a printed circuit board (PCB) and wires are inserted to make the connection. Our true plug-in connectors are terminated by stripping the wire insulation and inserting the wire into the connector for a reliable wire-to-board connection. They are the smallest connection type in the category.
