Modular systems provide high reliability, low cost and long-life cycle solutions for many markets including medical, industrial and harsh environments. They also offer an opportunity to updating obsolete and legacy designs.

In this workshop, we will cover the mechanical descriptions of example modular systems, the benefit in solving manufacturing challenges, how to make electrical connections to a PCB or a pad pin (with an emphasis on custom pad pins), understanding spring pin stroke to overcome tolerance stack-up. It will cover questions for custom design of pogo pins, what components of a pogo and pin that can be modified, technologies that use pogo pins.

It means that designers may get ahead of cost down initiatives by implementing modular design regardless of brand.
