Small high power LED connectors
With the growing popularity of LED lighting, we notice that fixtures become ever-smaller and more sophisticated. LED lighting manufacturers therefore prefer to use a compact connector range that offers a great variety of possibilities to match the requirements of their LED designs.
Although the space for the connector is limited, the requested rated current often remains high. This is what makes LED connectors from JST so interesting as they combine a small design with relatively high rated currents.
Depending on the fixture, you can choose from:
- Very small pitches, going from 1,1 mm to 4 mm
- Great variety in rated currents, ranging from 1A to 4A
- Plug in at the top, bottom or side and
- Various circuits possibilities
