Automotive Headers

TE Connectivity (TE) manufactures a complete portfolio of automotive PCB headers which are designed for a wide range of automotive applications. We also offer additional components and advanced manufacturing technologies for pre-verified end-to-end solutions that drive efficiency.

Automotive grade printed circuit board (PCB) headers.  TE offers a complete portfolio of automotive-grade PCB headers that support signaling, low/ medium power, high voltage, high pin counts, data connectivity, miniaturization and sealing for external applications. Our innovative related technologies such as Press-fit, including innovative insertion zone technology and ultra-low risk plating  together with reliable seating machines,  enables efficient solder-free manufacturing efficiency. Our headers are also pre-verified with our terminal technologies such as NanoMQS and MCON, providing end-to-end solutions that help eliminate compatibility issues and risk of manufacturing disruption

 

What is the role of an automotive PCB header?

  • Interface between a monitored environment and sensitive in-vehicle intelligence
  • Connection technology between power circuit board and connector
  • Transmission of signals and power from controller to consumers via connector and harness
