Periferiacsatlakozó

Periferiacsatlakozó, a Hungarian term, translates to "peripheral connector" or "edge connector" in English. It refers to a component or a point in an electronic system designed to interface with external devices or modules. These connectors are typically found at the edges or peripheries of a printed circuit board (PCB) or a larger electronic device.

The primary function of a periferiacsatlakozó is to enable communication and data transfer between the main system and its accessories. This can include a wide range of devices such as input/output peripherals, expansion cards, sensors, or other specialized modules. The design of these connectors varies greatly depending on the intended application, the type of signals to be transmitted (e.g., analog, digital, power), and the required data transfer speed.

Common examples of periferiacsatlakozók include expansion slots on computer motherboards (like PCI or PCIe), USB ports, audio jacks, and power input connectors. In embedded systems, they might be pin headers or specialized connectors used for debugging, programming, or adding specific functionalities. The physical form factor, pin count, and electrical characteristics are all crucial aspects that define a specific type of periferiacsatlakozó. They play a vital role in the modularity and expandability of electronic systems.
