0026605040

Rectangular connectors are a type of electronic connectors that have a rectangular shaped body with a header which connects the component to the printed circuit board (PCB). The most popular and commonly used type of plastic housing rectangular connectors are 0026605040 headers, male pins, breakaway headers, and surface mount connectors.

0026605040 Application Field and Working Principle

The 0026605040 headers are a type of plastic housing rectangular connectors developed by TE Connectivity and are ideal for use in a variety of industrial and commercial applications. The connectors feature a two-part construction with a receptacle housing and a header. The receptacle has two rows of six pins, which are inserted into the matching header. The pins provide mechanical and electrical contact between the component on the PCB and the receptacle housing. The header houses the pins on the connector.

A number of different plating options are available for the 0026605040 header, including nickel plated, gold-plated, and tin plated. The gold-plated option provides an increased level of electrical contact and is often used for high-voltage applications. Additionally, the header pins can be soldered into the PCB for a secure connection.

The 0026605040 headers are commonly used in telecommunications and other applications such as medical equipment, networking, industrial automation, consumer electronics, automotive, and military/aerospace. They can be used in applications requiring high density, small size, and high reliability connections. Additionally, the header is RoHS compliant, meaning that it does not contain materials potentially hazardous to humans or the environment.

The 0026605040 header is primarily used for board-to-board connections. The header is firmly connected to the PCB via soldering, wave-soldering, or lead-free reflow soldering. After the connection is made, the pins on the header connect with the sockets on the receptacle housing. This provides a secure electrical connection between the two components and ensures a reliable power or data transfer.

The 0026605040 header is an ideal choice for applications requiring a reliable and secure connection. Its two-part construction ensures a reliable connection and the different plating options provide an additional level of flexibility. Additionally, it is RoHS compliant and can be soldered into the PCB for a secure and permanent connection.
