The 176381-8 is a type of connectivity device that falls into the Rectangular Connectors - Arrays, Edge Type, Mezzanine (Board to Board) family. This product, manufactured by Molex, is a combination connector and board-to-board interconnect, designed to provide multiple points of contact along a board-to-board edge. It consists of individual gold- or tin-plated pins arranged in a row format, and a single row housing that can be mounted on a board edge.The 176381-8 has two sections: the “male” portion which is mounted on the underside of the circuit board and the “female” portion which is mounted on the edge of the board – similar to the configuration of an edge-type connector. The housing is designed to provide mechanical support for the pins, with the individual contacts within the housing providing power, ground and signal connections between the boards.In terms of applications, the 176381-8 has seen extensive use in data communications markets, such as networking, storage, telecom, and computing. Its wide range of possible configurations makes it particularly attractive in terms of customizing interconnections for specific projects.The 176381-8 offers advantages including improved connectivity and durability, as well as better signal integrity. Its inherent design also reduces potential crosstalk, since the contact point is minimized to the span of a single row. The chip can also support a range of frequencies from 50 MHz up to 6 GHz for some configurations.The 176381-8’s working principle is quite simple. Once connected to the board edge, a “male” contact is inserted into the “female” contact point. The “male” contact snaps into place securely with a slight outward pressure. This contact is then aided by a cam operated mechanism that ensures a stable electrical connection is made when the “male” portion is locked to the “female” portion.The 176381-8 offers an impressive array of benefits including reliable maintenance free connections, reduced lead times and costs, fast assembly and testing, and a wide range of possible configurations. With its ease of pairing, robust contact points, high signal integrity, and good electromagnetic shielding, it is an excellent choice for many applications.
