Overview


When choosing a connection type, designers often need to consider trade-offs such as cost, assembly needs and whether or not the connection needs to be unmated. In cases where a simple connection will suffice, questions of reliability need to addressed when comparing hand-soldering to soldering methods.

Molex’s Board-in connectors meet the requirements of a cost-effective easy-to-assemble connection that does not need to be unmated on at least one end. Compared to competitive Board-in types, Molex offers the widest range of pitch options, mating configurations and circuit sizes.
