What Do You Think of the Connector E-Guide?

rscasny
rscasny over 5 years ago

I was in a meeting today and a colleague pointed out to me the Connector e-guide. Here's the URL:

 

https://www.newark.com/connector-eguide-pcb-board

 

I think it's a well-designed page that summarizes different connector types such as:

 

  • Component-to-Board
  • Board-to-Board
  • Wire to Board

 

Each type provides you with more information on each type.

 

I think it's a helpful tool that communicates a lot of information in an informative manner.

 

What do you think of this connector e-guide?

 

How would you use it?

 

How could it be improved?

    Searching a database for the right connector can be very difficult and the pictures here are very helpful. Having a tab with cables would be helpful especially if they matched somehow to the corresponding…

    Hi Randall, The initial tab didn't get too much interest from me, probably as I am familiar with many of those Component-to-Board solutions, however being able to visually see the options under the other…

    Hi Randall,

     

    I liked it too, and finally learned a name for a connector that I was interested in (SIP connector - I always searched for SIL and found the wrong stuff). It's nice, the images help a lot, especially for the more complex connectors like the stacking ones, where there are different variants.. now it's easier to refine by photo first. Also I've found interesting ones I've never heard of before, like 'slimstack'!

    This type of gallery search is nice. From my perspective, an improvement could be to (over time) just keep adding more photos : ) even if they are for similar categories, or more narrower categories, the further down the page one scrolls.
