Global Automotive Wire to Board Connector Market 2022-2030

Last Updated:  Apr 25, 2025 | Study Period: 2022-2030

GLOBAL AUTOMOTIVE WIRE TO BOARD CONNECTOR MARKET

 

INTRODUCTION

 

The need for wire-to-board connections is increasing as a result of the increased demand for high-speed connectivity and transmission bandwidth, as well as the low and constant cost of raw materials needed for manufacturing.

 

Wire-to-board connectors bring power and signal to a printed circuit board (PCB) by connecting a group of discrete wires to the board. There are no standard wire-to-board connectors; the various types are specific to the manufacturers who produce them.

 

Wire-to-board connectors can be specified based on several features. These include housing size and material, stacking height (the height of the connector from the circuit board), and pin pitch (the distance between the centers of two conductors – often two pins next to each other.)

 

The number of contacts, the length of the contacts, and the number of contact rows can be specified as well.Wire-to-board connectors can be surface mounted to the PCB or have pins that go through the board and are soldered to the other side.

 

The wire termination method used inside the connector depends on the wire size and number of contacts. Connectors that handle significant power have crimped-on contacts for good mating between the wire and contact and no heating. Mass termination connectors that hold 20 or more wires can be designed for automated soldering.

Like many electronic connectors, wire-to-board connectors are getting smaller as space on PCBs becomes less available. This has led to the popularity of ultra-compact connectors with profiles under few mm that are compatible with automated surface mount assembly in high-volume manufacturing.

 

Gold-plated contacts and strain relief capabilities add to the reliability of these tiny connectors. Wire-to-board connectors are efficient and cost-effective.

 

They are used in a variety of applications including automotive, industrial, telecommunications, lighting and displays, commercial electronic equipment, and household appliances.

 

The market is also expanding due to rising demand for PCs and other communication devices as well as widespread IoT use. This development prompted network upgrades, which in turn prompted connector modifications to guarantee high-speed transmission.

 

GLOBAL AUTOMOTIVE WIRE TO BOARD CONNECTOR MARKET DEVELOPMENTS AND INNOVATIONS

One of the main factors boosting the rise of the wire-to-board connector market share is the shrinking of electronic equipment. Technology advancements have had a significant positive impact on the expansion of the market for electronic gadgets.

 

These electronic products are in higher demand, which has prompted manufacturers to spend a lot of money on R&D.The size of electronic equipment has significantly decreased with technological advancements.

 

Customers today seek electrical products that are both very reliable and small. The use of automotive connectors in automobiles has expanded along with the introduction of more highly advanced electronic systems, such as driver assistance systems, radio controls, cruise control, diagnostic systems, and entertainment systems. Additionally, strict government guidelines on carbon emissions have encouraged the use of emission sensors. 

 

NEW PRODUCT LAUNCH

TE’s FFC, FPC & Ribbon Connectors -In cameras and home appliances, the FFC connectors offer single- and double-row housing (plain and latch) with the high-speed sequential application of multiple-crimp contacts.

 

In data systems and personal computers, the FFC FLEXPAC connectors are a versatile interconnect that combines flat conductor cable technology with a variety of contact and connector termination styles.

 

In smartphones and tablets, the FPC connectors enables smaller centerline or pitch spacing for lower profile heights and lighter, reliable connections.

 

In notebook computers and slim LED panles, LCEDI connectors mate LCD panels and main processor boards using micro coax cable, providing exceptional performance in both low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) and embedded DisplayPort (eDP) applications.

 

With TE FFC, FPC, and ribbon connectors, you can make the connections build smaller, lighter consumer electronics with the reliability customers expect.

 

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

The rising adoption of automotive electronics is one of the major reasons propelling growth in the wire-to-board connection market. All of these electrical components utilised in autos include automotive connections as a key component.

 

Sizable portions of the costs associated with manufacturing cars are attributable to automotive components. The use of automotive connectors in automobiles has expanded along with the introduction of more highly advanced electronic systems, such as driver assistance systems, radio controls, cruise control, diagnostic systems, and entertainment systems. 

 

TE Connectivity is a leading mobiliser of the equipment in the market. The latest integration has been in high density applications, AMPMODU 50/50 Grid Vertical Headers and Receptacles are designed for parallel board-to-board stacking.

 

Right-angle board-to-board and cable-to-board applications are also possible because the vertical receptacles and headers can both mate with non-latching right angle headers.

 

Micro-MaTch was first developed in response to miniaturisation and the tendency toward increasing density of electronic functions on a substrate.Molex Inc. is part of the component manufacture trending companies in the current industry.

 

The purpose of creating Straight and right-angle headers are included in the fully shrouded flexible wire-to-board/wire-to-wire system for a variety of 2.50mm pitch industry-standard applications. To satisfy the needs of many industries, the pitch system is a flexible and well-tested product with a wide range of characteristics, including TPA, positive-lock, and glow wire.
