Introduction:

Rectangular connectors – headers, specialty pin – are connectors that have multiple pins arranged in a rectangular design. They are used to connect electronic components such as printed circuit boards, lenses, resistors, and transistors. The header is a plug, typically with either single, dual or four rows of pins, which plugs into a socket or another header to make a connection. Some common applications of rectangular connectors include the automotive, computer, consumer, military/aerospace, and medical industries.

Design Considerations:

The most important design consideration when selecting a rectangular connector is the pitch. Pitch is defined as the distance between two pins, typically in millimeters. It is important to identify the correct pitch for a particular application, as an incorrect pitch may lead to a poor connection. The other design considerations to keep in mind when selecting a rectangular connector include the number of contacts, the contact termination type, the contact style, the contact plating, and the polarization.

Application:

Rectangular connectors are used in a wide range of applications, from automotive to medical. In the automotive industry, rectangular connectors are used to connect electronic components such as sensors, switches, and motors. In the consumer electronics market, rectangular connectors are commonly used in devices such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops, as they are capable of making reliable connections within a confined space. Rectangular connectors can also be found in computer servers, military/aerospace applications, and medical equipment.

Working Principle:

Rectangular connectors are typically composed of two parts: an upper housing and a lower insulator. The upper housing is made of a rigid material and includes metal contacts mounted in slots that line the inner edge (this is referred to as “male” contacts). The lower insulator is a soft material and includes female contacts mounted in slots that line the inner edge. When the two parts of the connector are mated together, the contacts align and an electrical connection is made. This connection is held reliably via the friction and compression forces that are created when the two parts are mated together.

Advantages of Rectangular Connectors:

Rectangular connectors offer several advantages over traditional connectors. They are a cost-effective solution that provide a reliable connection, even in high vibration applications. They are also easy to install and they can be used in confined spaces. In addition, they are available in a wide range of pitch sizes, from 0.5mm to 4.2mm. Lastly, rectangular connectors are available in a variety of materials, finishes and contact arrangements, making them suitable for a variety of applications.

Conclusion:

Rectangular connectors, also known as headers and specialty pin connectors, are a type of connector used in a variety of applications, ranging from automotive to medical. They consist of two parts – an upper housing and a lower insulator – with metal contacts mounted in slots lining the inner edge of the connector that make a reliable electrical connection when the two parts are mated. Rectangular connectors have several advantages, including cost-effectiveness, ease of installation, and the availability of a wide range of pitch sizes, materials, finishes and contact arrangements.
