Rectangular connectors - headers, male pins are an important component in many electronic applications. 55460-0772 is a type of such connector. This article introduces the application field and working principle of a 55460-0772 rectangular connector.

Applications of the 55460-0772 Connector

The 55460-0772 connector is designed primarily for use as a header in hard-wired circuits with automated soldering equipment. It is also suitable for use in hand-wired circuits, in which it provides a reliable electrical and mechanical connection. Due to characteristics, the 55460-0772 connector is most commonly used to connect power and signal circuits in a variety of applications. This includes audio, video, and computer installations, where it is commonly used to provide a reliable connection between components.

The 55460-0772 connector is also frequently employed in automotive, industrial control, telecommunications, and consumer electronics applications. Being very reliable and very easy to use, these types of connectors are widely used to provide electrical connectivity in various types of applications that must ensure accuracy and stability.

Working Principle of the 55460-0772 Connector

The 55460-0772 connector features two rows of contact pins and corresponding headers. The pins are arranged on a 0.1” pitch. The most widely used version of this type of connector has 50-pin and 100-pin headers. The pins are made of brass and plated in gold for maximum conductivity. The pin headers are constructed of either stamped and formed phosphor bronze or copper. The assembly is held together by a nickel-plated zinc housing.

When the connector is mated, each pin of the male connector is inserted into a corresponding female header. As the two parts are mated, the pins and headers become electrically and mechanically connected. In the unmated state, the pins are held in place by the housing and the female header. A small amount of force is required to mate and unmate the connector.

To ensure a secure connection in the mated state, the pins and headers feature a number of features. The pins may feature a tactile rib that provides tactile feedback when the male and female connectors are mated. The female headers also feature a series of small, fixed retention clips that hold the male pins in place and ensure a reliable connection.

The 55460-0772 connector is most commonly used as a two-row, 50-pin or 100-pin connector. However, in some applications the pins and headers can be arranged in different configurations. For instance, the pins and headers may be arranged in three, four, or more rows.

Conclusion

The 55460-0772 connector is an important part of many electronic applications. It is designed primarily for use as a header in automated soldered circuits, but is also suitable for use in hand-wired circuits. This type of connector is used to connect power and signal circuits in a variety of applications, such as audio, video, and computer installations, automotive, industrial control, telecommunications, and consumer electronics applications. The 55460-0772 connector features two rows of contact pins and corresponding headers, made of brass and plated gold for maximum conductivity. When mated, the pins and headers form a secure electrical and mechanical connection, held together by a nickel-plated zinc housing.
