Electric connector
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of electric connector, relate in particular to a kind of electric connector that is used for transmission signals.
Background technology
Electric connector is used very extensive, and usually, can be divided into desktop computer and use electric connector with electric connector, mobile phone with electric connector, consumer electronics with electric connector, notebook computer, and other application.USB (Universal Serial Bus) connector is the common a kind of general-purpose interface of electric connector in the various device.Usually, we mention USB connector and are meant the electric connector that meets USB 2.0 specification standards, and it comprises four conducting terminals, are respectively signal terminal and earth terminal of a power supply terminal, a pair of transmission data.The application scenario of USB connector is for connecting peripheral equipment, for example mouse, keyboard, printer, digital camera, scanner, External memory equipment etc.
Yet, the signal transmission of low rate during USB2.0 only can satisfy, for audio-visual class file, document size reaches under the situation of 1-2GB easily, and the transmission rate of existing USB2.0 obviously can not satisfy client's demand.Along with popularizing day by day and the continuous increase of transfer files of Digital Media---even surpass 25GB, fast the performance requirement that necessitated of instantaneous transmission synchronously.Therefore; About 2007; Dominating down of Intel Company; Develop the USB3.0 technology jointly by Intel, Hewlett-Packard (HP), NEC, NXP semiconductor and companies such as (Texas Instruments) of Texas Instrument, its application comprises personal computer, consumption and moves the instantaneous transmission synchronously fast of series products.
Prior USB 2.0 that USB3.0 is well compatible, it is set up other one group of conducting terminal and is used for high speed transmission of signals on the basis of existing USB2.0.This group conducting terminal of setting up comprises that two pairs of set of differential signal terminals and the earth terminal between two pairs of set of differential signal terminals are used for eliminating the cross-talk of high speed transmission of signals.At present; A lot of companies are all at actively research and development, manufacturing USB3.0 connector; Yet; Owing to set up five conducting terminals again under the framework of compact USB2.0 very much in original size, how to have assembled two groups of conducting terminals or make the problem that the insulating body with two groups of conducting terminals becomes dealer's active development.Usually, in order to practice thrift the assembly space, a lot of production firms adopt the technology of ejection formation that one group of conducting terminal and insulating body are shaped to one, and then assemble other one group of conducting terminal.Yet the ejection formation cost is high, technical threshold is high, under the market competition environment that unit price reduces day by day, is unfavorable for that production firm enhances competitiveness and seizes market.Therefore, the present invention's electric connector of aiming to provide low cost, being easy to assemble.
