Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets
15-45-1310 Application Field and Working Principle
The 15-45-1310 rectificators are one of the most popular and widely used types of rectifying connectors in the market today. They are commonly used to connect a circuit board to a power supply by providing a high-current junction between the two. The 15-45-1310 connector is made up of a male-ended socket (body body) that is predetermined to fit into the corresponding female-ended socket (body). This type of connector is also known as a “Header” or “Receptacle”, and it typically features a rectangular shape and four terminal pins. The 15-45-1310 socket is designed to fit into a female receptacle that is securely affixed to the circuit board.
The 15-45-1310 connector is also available in different types such as centerline or cornerline and various pitch sizes. This type of connector features very reliable electrical and physical construction, and its four terminal pins are plated with either tin (Sn) or gold (Au) for improved corrosion resistance and high levels of conductivity. In addition, the 15-45-1310 connector is rated at a current of 13A and supported by different pin spacing configurations that allow for compatibility with multiple devices.
When it comes to the working principle of the 15-45-1310 connector, the four terminal pins transmit electrical power and signals once the connector is fully installed. It is important to ensure a proper connection between the two sockets by securely pressing them together. The patented heel-around design of the 15-45-1310 connector helps to reduce mechanical slack and ensures that the contacts are held firmly in place.
Sufficient torque must be applied when using this type of connector, as too much torque may damage the contacts. In order to ensure the maximum current carrying capability of the 15-45-1310 connector, as well as reduce the potential for contact shorts, it is important to use only approved mating connectors.
Overall, the 15-45-1310 connector is a very reliable, cost-efficient alternative for connecting high-current applications. Its reliable construction, high-conductivity, and ease of use make it a perfect choice for a range of applications.
