Card Edge Connectors

Card edge connectors are a type of electrical connector that is used to connect a circuit board or other device to a mating connector on another circuit board or device. These connectors are commonly used in electronic circuits to provide a means of connecting two or more components together. Card edge connectors consist of a row of contacts that are arranged along the edge of a circuit board or other device. The contacts are designed to mate with the corresponding contacts on the mating connector, allowing electrical signals to be transferred between the two components. Card edge connectors are available in a variety of configurations, including single-row, double-row, and multi-row arrangements. They can also have different numbers of contacts, depending on the application. Card edge connectors are typically made from plastic or metal, and the contacts are typically made from brass or another conductive material. They are used in a wide range of electronic devices, including computers, appliances, and consumer electronics.
