The working principle of IDC termination method
Introduction and background IDC termination method is often used in various applications. This termination technology has been successfully applied to a variety of industries where multi-contact mass termination and very economical. Multi-point cable termination can be achieved with insulation displacement connectors (IDC) because the termination force is relatively small (usually a few pounds, while crimping is hundreds of pounds). In addition, another advantage of this technology is that it eliminates the stripping operations required in crimping. Therefore, in many electronic applications, such large-scale terminations are often used when using multi-strand cables. In many cases, multiple flat cables are used for this very economical large-scale termination. However, discrete multi-strand cables can also be used to reduce costs because the steps of cable stripping preparation and terminal insertion are eliminated. This type of application provides rapid assembly of high-d...
