122A10179X Connectors, Interconnects

Backplane connectors are connectors which are primarily used for joining multiple PCBs together in a system architecture. DIN 41612 is a type of backplane connector that is primarily used in applications such as industrial control systems, robotics, telecommunications, and others. The most notable feature of this connector is the 118-pole single-row pin layout which allows for higher volumes of data to be transmitted, with as much as 12A per pin. This type of connector typically also contains shielding to reduce crosstalk and other electrical interference.

The 122A10179X connector is a state of the art backplane connector from the DIN 41612 range. It is designed with a 2 or 3 row pin configuration, with up to 214 pins in 28 positions. This allows for extremely dense applications which require a high amount of reliable interconnections. It can be used to connect multiple PCBs in the backplane of systems where space is a premium. A feature of this connector is an optimized design which allows for higher currents to be transported, with a maximum of 10A per pin.

The 122A10179X connector is also notable for its wide range of operating temperature, from -40°C to +105°C. This allows it to be used in applications that require extreme temperature ranges. The connector is also designed with three levels of contact integrity: Serial, Frequency, and Power. The serial contact simply creates a physical connection accompanied by a small amount of electrical contact. Frequency contact increases this electrical contact, allowing for signals with higher frequencies to be used. Power contact further improves electrical contact, allowing for higher currents to be transferred from one PCB to another.

The design of the 122A10179X connector is based on insulation displacement technology. This means that the contacts, which are designed as flat blades, pierce the thermoplastic insulation of the wiring, allowing an electrical contact between the blades and the wiring. This increases reliability, as no additional soldering is required and there is no risk of failure at the contact point. Additionally, the robust design of the connector also reduces the risk of mechanical failure.

In terms of working principle, the 122A10179X connector operates in much the same way as other connectors in the DIN 41612 series. It operates by insulation displacement, creating an electrical connection when two pins are properly inserted into the individual sockets. They are designed to maintain this connection even when subjected to shock, vibration, and other environmental conditions. Additionally, the connector also has built-in shielding to reduce the risk of crosstalk and other interference.

In conclusion, the 122A10179X connector is a state of the art backplane connector from the DIN 41612 series. It is designed with an optimized design which allows it to handle high currents and withstand extreme temperature ranges. Additionally, it operates using insulation displacement technology, creating an electrical connection when two pins are properly inserted into the individual sockets. Finally, its shielding reduces the risk of crosstalk and other interference, making it a reliable option for use in high-density applications where space is a premium.
