0022187161

Rectangular connectors such as headers, receptacles, and female sockets are commonly used in a variety of applications including industrial, automotive, and communication applications. 0022187161, one of the most popular types of rectangular connectors, comprises of a box or pin header assembly which is attached to a printed circuit board (PCB) or other electrical device by means of soldering. The connection is then secured by either screws or rivets. The 0022187161 connector can carry multi-conductor signals or single-conductor signals depending on the application.

Application Field

The 0022187161 connector can be used in a wide range of applications. It is frequently used as a connector in the telecommunications industry for connecting DSL and other optical communications devices. This type of connector is also popular in the industrial sector, as it is used for connecting switches, relays and motors. In the automotive industry, the 0022187161 connector is used to connect audio systems and in-dash navigation systems. It is also used for connecting auxiliary power, cooling and climate control systems in cars.

Working Principle

The 0022187161 connector is designed so that two pins in each pair (or three in a triple-header) fit together and form a closed circuit to transmit an electrical signal. The connectors generally consist of several metal contacts, which are either inserted into or held onto a printed circuit board. The connection is then held in place by a locking mechanism, such as a screwed or pressed connection. The contacts in the 0022187161 header are generally arranged in rows, with the connection point in the hole at the center of the connector. The pins in the header are often insulated with an insulation material, such as rubber, to ensure that the electrical connection is secure and that the pins do not make contact with each other.

The 0022187161 connector is typically used in conjunction with other types of connectors, such as the circular connector or the DIN connector. General-purpose DIN connectors, such as the 03-1961, are commonly found in consumer electronics such as camcorders and cell phones. The 0022187161 connector can also be used for a variety of other applications, including data communication, video, and audio applications.
