What is a Floating connector?

Floating connector is a general term for connectors that have a mechanism to adjust a slight connection error that occurs relatively between boards among the connector parts used when connecting electronic boards.

Application of Floating connector

By using a floating connector, it becomes possible to tolerate mounting position errors between boards, so floating connectors are almost always used when connecting boards with a robot. In addition to increasing the degree of freedom in board connection, stress between boards after connection can be released, which is useful in situations where stress reduction on the device is required.
