LED has been in the automotive market for many years, but due to insufficient brightness and cost, it has not been generally accepted by the market. At present, it is mainly used in the middle and high-end car market, and the application of LEDs in foreign countries, especially Japanese cars, has been quite extensive.
According to the application, automotive LED lights can be divided into three types: lighting lamps, light distribution lamps and decorative lamps. Functional aspects such as lights. Decorative lights are mainly used for color transformation of car lights, which can beautify the inside and outside of the car.
In recent years, with the resolution of some automotive LED brightness problems and cost reduction, its application volume has increased. The most difficult to break through is the application of automotive lighting headlights that has only been initially applied in recent years, such as the Lexus top hybrid vehicles "LS600h" and "LS600hL" launched by Japanese automakers. Toyota is equipped with the world's first production car. White LED headlights. This LED headlight uses 5 high-power white LEDs, which can get the expected brightness and light distribution mode. Although there are factors that have to use multiple LEDs in order to improve the illuminance, the use of multiple LEDs not only improves the light utilization efficiency of white LEDs, but also brings power consumption control to the same level as HID headlights. advantage.
Compared with the traditional automotive incandescent lamp, automotive LED has many outstanding performance advantages, mainly manifested in the following aspects: first, long life. The lifespan of the LED lamp can theoretically reach 50,000 hours, and the actual life can also reach 20,000 hours. Generally, there is no need to replace during the life of the vehicle, and the life of the better incandescent bulbs for cars is 3000 hours to 5000 hours. Second, energy saving. LED lights can directly convert electrical energy into light energy, and the environmental protection and energy saving effect is good, while incandescent bulbs can only convert 12% -18% of electrical energy into light energy. For example, the tail light power of an incandescent lamp is 21W, and the tail light power of an LED is only 3W-5W; third, there is no delay. The start-up time of ordinary incandescent bulbs is generally between 100 ms and 300 ms, while the start-up time of LEDs is only a few tens of nanoseconds, which greatly shortens the start-up time. At the same time, LED car lights have the advantages of incandescent lamps with high light color selectivity, vibration and shock resistance, low heat, and strong environmental adaptability.
However, there are still many obstacles to the large-scale application of automotive LEDs, mainly manifested in:
1. Compared with incandescent light bulbs, the cost of applying LEDs remains high. Depending on the number and quality of LEDs used, the price is generally several to ten times that of similar incandescent light bulb products. Although high-power LEDs have already appeared, their cost is proportional to their power. The rate of decline in the production cost of automotive LEDs worldwide will be one of the main factors affecting the future large-scale application of automotive LEDs.
2. As the end consumers have higher and higher requirements on the appearance of car lights, and as the number of LEDs used in car lights is increasing, the probability of LED problems is increasing, so the performance and reliability of LED products are required. Higher and higher. At the same time, OEMs are increasingly demanding LED suppliers.
3. With the increasing scale of the automotive LED market, new suppliers will inevitably increase and competition will intensify, and the uneven quality of suppliers' products will inevitably affect the market reputation and thus affect the final consumption. demand. As long as the cost of LEDs drops to the same level as incandescent lamps, cars other than economy cars will use LEDs on a large scale.
Antenk Insulation Displacement termination connectors are designed to quickly and effectively terminate Flat Cable in a wide variety of applications. The IDC termination style has migrated and been implemented into a wide range of connector styles because of its reliability and ease of use. Click on the appropriate sub section below depending on connector or application of choice.
An insulation-displacement contact (IDC), also known as insulation-piercing contact (IPC), is an electrical connector designed to be connected to the conductor(s) of an insulated cable by a connection process. The IDC forces a selectively sharpened blade or blades through the insulation, bypassing the need to strip the cable.
IDC Plug / Socket - Card Edge Slot Connector
Card Edge SLOT Connector is the portion of a printed circuit board (PCB) consisting of traces leading to the edge of the board that are intended to plug into a matching socket.
IDC Connectors
The IDC connector is also known as an insulation-displacement contact, or insulation-piercing contact. It is a connector designed to work with ribbon cables, and uses sharp contacts to clamp onto the wire, piercing the insulation and connecting with the wire in a secure and convenient way.
This simple connection principle is ideal for multi-stranded ribbon cables, as it allows the connector to make an assured connection across the multiple wires without having to strip the wires. This cold welding connection may ensure a gas tight connection between the wire and connector.
The Antenk range of IDC connectors includes plug and sockets in configurations to suit your purposes.
IDC Connectors Applications
IDC connections are often used low voltage applications, such as to connect computer drives internally or to connect computer peripheries. They are often cited as preferable due to their having much faster installation speeds than conventional wiring connectors.
IDC connectors also have an advantage in that several IDC connectors can be attached to the same length of ribbon cable, able to handle multiple connections economically, saving time in more complicated installations.
IDC Connectors Features and Benefits
• Fast cold welding connection
• Cost effective
• Versatile
• Quick termination to wire.
