Solutions for Wearables
With our connectors, antennas, and sensors, TE can help clear the way for innovative consumer experiences.
Let's create something wearable, together. The engineering of wearable devices presents challenges in miniaturization and multifunctionality, as well as rugged design and sensor integration. This is where we come in to help. Our components are already part of well-known wristbands, watches, and smartwear, but with our wide range of products, we can enable you to build the wearable you’ve been imagining. We can help you find solutions to fit the most performance into a smaller, more rugged, and more beautifully designed device. Our miniaturized components offer high-speed computing that runs on low power through the harshest environments and across industries. TE technology offers reliable multifunctionality in applications for healthcare, fitness, navigation, and more.
Input/Output
The trends in the emerging wearables market are characterized by two words: fast charging and speed. We feature a new product that provides high performance in both categories through a single connector. Our new high speed multi I/O connector supports USB 2.0, USB 3.0, USB power delivery at 3A, and even MHL / MyDP video in one connector.
Input/Output
Micro USB Connectors
Our micro USB connectors combine high speed data capabilities and a charging function in one connector.
Input/Output
USB 3.0 Connectors
Our USB 3.0 connector meets all 3.0 standards of the USB Implementers Forum. It supports 5Gbps data rate for fast syncing on the go, a 10x performance increase over USB 2.0.
Input/Output
USB Type-C Connectors
USB Type-C is the new standard plug or receptacle providing a multi-function, single cable solution for USB, power, and audio/video.
Antennas and RF
We provide local design and prototyping centers across the globe, and world class manufacturing of all radio frequency and antenna technologies for smart, always connected devices. These technologies include flexible printed circuit, molded interconnect device, laser direct structuring, stamped, and tunable solutions, plus new printed applications, supporting test switches, and RF cables.
Antennas and RF
Custom Antennas
No matter what type of embedded antenna you need—or how many you need in your wearable device, we can help you with your custom design challenge.
Antennas and RF
RF Connectors
We offer a wide range of RF solutions, including pico switching coax, U.FL compatible and RF coax cable, and RF connectors.
Antennas and RF
Board Level Shielding (BLS)
As mobile device complexity and functionality increases, there is a growing need for thinner devices with multiple antennas, higher data rates, and increased operating frequencies. These designs are screaming for a simple and effective BLS solution to reduce EMI and improve your device's overall performance.
Power and Grounding
As devices become smaller and more powerful, grounding and battery connection is key. We have solutions for all types of grounding applications, including spring fingers, pick and place pads, and pogo pins. Our battery connector offering includes leaf style, floating battery interconnection system (FBIS), and spring probes. We have a variety of choices to meet the changing needs of smart, always connected devices.
Power and Grounding
Battery Interconnects for Mobile
TE mobile battery connectors include low profile battery connectors, leaf battery connectors, and floating battery interconnection systems (FBIS II).
Power and Grounding
Button Battery Holders
Our compact and low profile surface mount battery holder can provide a powerful energy option for wearables that are always on. The battery holder is 2.5mm high, 6.7mm wide, and 10.6mm deep; and the battery can be pushed easily into the holder from the top.
Board-to-Board
As smart devices become thinner and smaller, it is critical that performance is not compromised. Reliable but compact interconnects such as our fine pitch board-to-board, low profile, and super narrow types give device designers more space on the printed circuit board.
Board-to-Board
Fine Pitch Connectors
TE's fine pitch board-to-board connectors are optimized interconnect solutions for smaller and thinner electronic consumer products, designed to meet the miniaturization trend in the market.
Board-to-Board
Free Height Connectors
TE’s free height surface mount connectors meet today's electronics industry requirements for high density packaging.
FPC and FFC
We innovate to deliver the very best in interconnect performance as the smart device market trends ever thinner and smaller. Reliable but compact interconnects such as our fine pitch and low profile flexible printed circuit (FPC) connectors help provide more printed circuit board space for designers, as an alternative to the legacy board-to-board solution.
FPC and FFC
Flat Flexible Cable (FFC) Connectors
Our connectors for FFC include a wide variety of high density board-to-board, wire-to-board, and wire-to-wire connectors designed for automated assembly.
Wire-to-Board
Our broad portfolio of wire-to-board interconnects provides flexibility and reliability for your design.
Wire-to-Board
2mm AMP CT Connectors
Our AMP CT connector system consists of an extensive product offering with broad industry usage.
Wire-to-Board
High Performance Interconnects (HPI)
We offer wire-to-board high performance interconnects (HPI) at various pitches with square-peg technology, in single-row and dual-row post headers and various colors.
Removable Memory
Our outstanding technological capability can help you provide a user-friendly experience with our reliable and durable SIM and Micro SD connectors. In addition, we have the ability to fabricate very high volume products using a cost-effective, lean manufacturing process. The wide array of products, combined with our ability to redesign existing products to your requirements, promotes us as a trusted source for SIM and Micro SD card connectors.
Removable Memory
SIM Card Connectors
Subscriber identity module (SIM) and universal identity module (UIM) cards are widely used in a variety of mobile applications, including billing, security, and number storage purposes in mobile devices. The SIM card parameters are defined by ISO, ETSI, and GSM standards.
Removable Memory
SD Memory Card Connectors
We offer standard, micro, and micro SIM secure digital (SD) card connectors with a variety of design and packaging options.
Switches
Our high-performance switches are cost-effective, reliable, and designed to withstand extreme shock, vibration, temperature, and altitude. These products are engineered for use in robotics, control panels, motion control systems, lighting, building systems, HVAC, appliances, and an array of safety-critical applications. We also offer an extensive range of accessories, including knobs, caps, boot seals, and respective hardware.
Switches
DIP & SIP Switches
A DIP switch is a manual electronic package that is composed of a series of tiny switches. It has a rectangular casing and two parallel rows of connecting terminals. A SIP switch is a computer chip package that has a single row of connection pins.
