Simplifying Connectivity in Automotive Applications
Download the free tech paper
When it comes to automotive connections, automotive designers must strike a delicate balance between functionality, reliability, weight and cost. For more than a decade, pogo pin connectors have enabled designers to meet application requirements at a lower cost of total ownership, while reducing weight and space and improving reliability. Because of their enhanced signal performance and inherent resistance to many harsh environment conditions, pogo pin connectors continue to gain popularity in traditional and emerging automotive designs.
