A backplane or backplane system is a group of electrical connectors in parallel with each other, so that each pin of each connector is linked to the same relative pin of all the other connectors, forming a computer bus. It is used to connect several printed circuit boards together to make up a complete computer system.

2015年3月31日 · Often referred to simply as a backplane, this special type of printed circuit board is used as a support structure for connecting other PCBs. The backplane connector adds mechanical strength and stability while also acting as a plane for integrating other system components called daughterboards.

Backplane connectors, or simply backplanes, are a type of board-to-board connector. The name backplane comes from their early use in mainframe computers because they were located against the back of the computer case. Today backplane connectors are generally used in top-of-rack switch applications or hybrid hard drive (HHD) clusters.

At its core, a backplane is a structural component of an electronic system that provides a physical and electrical framework for connecting various electronic modules, cards, or components. Think of it as the central nervous system, orchestrating the …

Our portfolio of backplane connectors features high-performance right angle, co-planar, and mezzanine interconnects, used for mating printed circuit boards together. TE engineers use sophisticated 3D tools to develop accurate connector and footprint through pattern performance – prior to production.

2024年9月3日 · A backplane is a printed circuit board (PCB) that connects several connectors in parallel to each other, so that each pin of each connector is linked to the same relative pin of all the other connectors, forming a computer bus.

2024年1月26日 · What is a Backplane? Backplanes contain a collection of electrical connections sitting in parallel to each other. The individual pins of each connector sit in such a way that it creates a connection system. The technical term for this system is a data or computer bus. We use backplanes to develop computer systems.

Unlike conventional connectors that might link a single printed circuit board (PCB) to a peripheral device, backplane connectors enable the interconnection of multiple boards for the seamless transfer of data and power across an entire system. This functionality is particularly important in complex electronic systems, where numerous boards and ...

2023年3月20日 · A backplane PCB is a type of PCB that is used to connect multiple electronic devices within a system. It acts as a backbone, providing a central interface that enables the communication and data transfer between different components or subsystems.

A backplane connector is a specialized type of connector used on a backplane PCB to establish electrical connections between the backplane and the various modules or cards that plug into it. These connectors are typically mounted on the back side of the backplane PCB and feature multiple rows or columns of contacts, allowing for high-density ...
