What is Connector Tongue

A connector tongue is a protrusion located on the edge of a PCB that is specifically designed to establish a secure and reliable connection with a receptacle. This tongue is manufactured with a specific configuration that allows for both electrical and mechanical junction between the PCB and other circuitry. The Connectcr tongue serves as a mating component, enabling the PCB to be connected to external devices or circuitry. The connector tongue is typically inserted into a plated-through hole on the PCB, creating a steadfast mechanical-electrical connection without the need for soldering. This feature offers convenience during the assembly process, allowing for easy insertion and removal of connectors.
