Printed circuit board connectors (more often shortened as PCB connectors) are a type of electrical connector, made up of a housing and contacts which join sections of circuits together on PCBs, namely boards where conductive tracks for electronic components are printed.

OBS

printed circuit board; printed wiring board: In some contexts, the terms "printed wiring board" (PWB) and "printed circuit board" (PCB) are used interchangeably and they are thus synonyms. In other contexts, experts make a distinction and reserve PWB to refer to a board without any components.
