The chips meets people’s needs for powerful and compact as it rapid develop. The entire market products are becoming small and thin . This development trend pushes connectors into a dead end, not only the connector’s the development is approaching the direction of small and thin, and what is more serious is the power of the chip, which makes the PCB board highly integrated, so that the demand for connectors in the product machine is not only going in the direction of small and thin, but also in the direction of rapid cancellation , so the development of connectors in the future will tend to two aspects as following:
1. Miniaturization of connectors
The miniaturization of connectors is an inevitable development direction. Such products will be dominated by FPC, and the powerful functions of mobile phones will lead to market reshuffle in the direction of the Internet of things in the future. From the perspective of mechanical development, FPC will meet the functions of most products in the future. Therefore, after the qualitative leap in the function of the FPC connector in the future, the consumption will be large, and the FPC connector will become the mainstream development direction of the connector in the future.
2. External direction of the connector
In the short term, external connector is irreplaceable .This connector will be dominated by the TYPE-C connection. Now the mobile phone will gradually unify the TYPE-C connector, even the Apple mobile phone, which is demanded to replace the mobile phone interface with a TYPE-C interface, .So the function of the TYPE-C connector is becoming more and more powerful. It not only takes the signal and small current, but also gradually realizes the fast charging function. It also gradually replaces the large-capacity charging interface of the computer. According to the thinking of the connector industry association, in order to save energy and avoid unnecessary waste of resources, the unification of all mobile phone interfaces and even computer interfaces into TYPE-C interfaces has been advancing step by step. In the future, TYPE-C will not only charge mobile phones and computers , and will replace more external interfaces. In the future, the function of the chip will continue to be strengthened, resulting in a high concentration of product functions. It is likely that a product has only one external interface, and TYPE-C may be becoming to the largest selling product in the connector industry.
