D-Sub, D-Shaped Connectors - Housings

A D-sub connector is a device used to connect two pieces of electrical equipment, such as a computer and a printer. It is a type of connector that contains two parallel rows of pins or sockets, usually arranged in a D shape. D-sub connector housings, such as 170-009-173L020, are designed to protect and support the pins or sockets of D-sub connectors. The housing may be made of a variety of materials, such as plastic, metal, copper or aluminum.

The 170-009-173L020 D-sub connector, also known as a 9-pin mini D-sub connector, is a type of connector that is used in many applications. It is suitable for a wide range of industrial equipment and applications, including medical, audio/visual, automotive and data communications. This D-sub connector is designed for use in permanent or semi-permanent installation and features gold plated contacts for superior electrical performance.

Application Field and Working Principle

The 170-009-173L020 is a 9-pin mini D-shaped connector that is often used in computer, automotive, and communication equipment. It is designed for routed cable connections, and is an industry-standard medium size connector. It can be used in a variety of applications, such as mounting on circuit boards or as part of a communication connection.

The connector consists of two metal pieces, a male and a female, that have a central wire or pin protruding from them. This protruding pin is the male part, and the female part is a recessed hole that is designed to accept the male\'s pin. When the male and female parts are connected, two connection points are established in the form of a “contact”. This contact forms an electrical connection between the two parts that allow electrical current to flow between them.

The contacts of the D-sub connector are connected to the device\'s circuit board. The connector is then plugged into the corresponding socket, also known as the mating receptacle, on the circuit board. This establishes the electrical connection between the circuit board and the device. This connection is made possible by the small metal contacts that are connected to the pins and create a path for the electricity to flow through.

The majority of D-sub connectors feature an insulation-displacement connection method, which is a form of “cold-weld” connection capable of making a reliable electrical connection without soldering. This method is especially useful in high-density connectors where soldering would not be feasible due to space restrictions. The insulation-displacement method creates a reliable connection by forcing metal contacts to penetrate the insulation around the wire. This allows the metal contact to make an electrical connection to the wire without damaging the insulation.

The 170-009-173L020 is a versatile connector that is suitable for a wide range of applications and is just one example of the many types of D-sub connectors available. D-sub connectors are often used in a variety of equipment and their popularity is due to their simplicity, durability, and affordability.
