Wire to Board Connectors
Wire to Board Connectors
A wire to board connector joins a wire to a printed circuit board (PCB) so that circuits can transfer signals to each other. These electronic connectors use a header
and receptacle to connect to the PCB or to cable harnesses. The circuit board has pins that are either surface mounted or soldered through-hole.

Connectronics Wire to Board Connector Types
Connectronics provides a wide selection of wire to board connectors, including:
- SCID connector series: SCID connectors are economical and small but yield superior high-voltage and corona-resistant protection. Their one-piece molded design and interfacial seal prevents entry of air, contaminants, and moisture for proper mating and operation. For more details, visit our SCID product page.
- MIDGI connector series: MIDGI connectors are one of the smallest, high-voltage corona-resistant interconnections on the market. Designed with one-piece molded construction and a locking interfacial seal, MIDGI connectors are low-cost, reliable, and provide optimal mating retention. For more information, view our MIDGI product page.
- Micro-MIDGI connector series: Micro-MIDGI connectors offer high-voltage, corona-resistant interconnection. Theyre the smallest molded one-piece connectors that have protective interfacial seals. The Micro-MIDGI series offers reliability, secure mating, and high-quality operation at an affordable price. To learn more, view our Micro-MIDGI product page.
- CPW high voltage series: CPW connectors are economical and designed for quality performance where space and weight are key considerations. The upset O-ring interface maintains optimal performance in extreme temperatures from -54 °C to 125 °C and altitudes up to 70,000 feet. For more details, view our CPW product page.

Where are wire-to-board connectors used?
By Frances Richards
Wire-to-board connectors are used to connect a wire or group of discrete wires to a printed circuit board (PCB). These connectors serve as an efficient and cost-effective method for delivering power and signals to PCBs in automotive, industrial, lighting, and communication products. Commercial electronic equipment and household appliances often use wire-to-board connectors as well.
The needs of the application will dictate the style of connector chosen, as there are no standard wire-to-board connector designs. Depending on the manufacturer, some feature low-profile mating for tight spaces and various locking mechanisms such as friction lock, full lock, or quick disconnect. Others feature a locking bar or snap-fit type of connection to ensure the wire remains securely in its socket. While many connectors are surface mounted to the board, others have pins that go through the board and are soldered to the other side.
Wire-to-board connectors are specified by properties such as housing size, materials, number of contacts, stacking height (height of connector measured from the circuit board), length of contacts, and number of contact rows. They are also specified in terms of pin pitch, which is the distance measured between the centers of two conductors. Wire termination also differs based on the wire size and number of contacts. For example, connectors that handle significant power often have crimped-on contacts that are secured with some sort of tool. Other styles, such as mass termination connectors that hold 20 wires or more, can be designed for use in automated soldering systems.
Another recent development is a new generation of ultra-compact connectors with profiles under 1.5 mm that are compatible with automated surface mount assembly in high-volume manufacturing. To ensure reliability, these tiny connectors often feature gold-plated contacts and strain relief capabilities. With so many sizes and styles available among todays wire-to-board connectors, design engineers have more options than ever to select the right power and signal delivery system for their end products.
