Amphenol Circuit Board Electrical Connector Contacts
 |
Attach wires to your circuit board with these Amphenol PV connector contacts. They push together, so they're easy to connect and disconnect yet still give you a strong, secure hold. Even after repeated use, they won’t lose their connection strength. First designed for use in solar power—the PV stands for photovoltaic—they’re also used in equipment ranging from small electronics to industrial robots.
For a complete connection, choose a plug and housing with the number of poles that matches the number of wires you need to connect. You’ll also need one sleeve for each wire.
Molex Circuit Board Electrical Connector Contacts with Locking Tab
 |
Connect wires to circuit boards with Molex Mini-Fit push-in connector contacts. These contacts are easier to detach than Amphenol PV contacts, so they’re often used for prototyping. A complete connector consists of a sleeve housing, sleeves, and a circuit board plug (all sold separately). To assemble these connectors, crimp sleeves onto your wires, then place them inside a sleeve housing. Once you’ve wired the sleeve housing, slide it onto a circuit board plug.
Circuit Board Terminals
 |
Terminals Installed on Circuit Board |
Terminals fit into 0.042" dia. holes so you can make connections to a circuit board.
Quick-Disconnect Terminals
 |
Quick-disconnect terminals provide fast, secure connections. The male tab fits into a female quick-disconnect terminal—pull them apart with ease. The solder tails attach to your circuit board. Terminals with a built-in tab support prevent side-to-side motion during termination.

Wraparound Post Terminals
 |
Insert wraparound post terminals into a hole and wrap wire around the top. Soldering is not needed. The post scores the sides of the hole for a secure grip.
Clamp-On Post Terminals
 |
Push clamp-on post terminals into the hole so that the clamp sits flush on top of the board. Solder your wire into the clamp.
Molex Circuit Board Electrical Connector Contacts
 |
Connect wires to your circuit board with these Molex KK push-in connector contacts. A good choice for prototyping, they require less force to disassemble than Amphenol PV connectors. However, this means that they are less secure in more demanding applications.
For a complete connection, choose a plug and housing with the number of poles that matches the number of wires you need to connect. You’ll also need one sleeve for each wire.
