D-Sub connectors are commonly used in medical equipment, transportation, industrial environments and consumer electronics. D-Sub connectors are also widely used in aerospace systems for connecting transducers, servo controllers, actuators and communications systems.

Working Principle

A D-Sub connector consists of two metal shells with threaded or hexagonal screws. The shells are usually made of brass, aluminum or steel. Inside each shell is a series of pins and sockets. When the two shells are mated, the pins and sockets form a contact that is capable of conducting electricity or transmitting a signal.

The contact between the pins and sockets is ensured by a spring-loaded device that creates a secure connection. The spring-loaded device also ensures that the connection is maintained even when the device is exposed to vibrations or heavy use. This makes D-Sub connectors suitable for rigorous industrial applications.

The D-Sub connector family includes several different types of connectors. The 172-E09-111-001 is a solder cup type with a maximum current rating of 2A. It also features EMI (electromagnetic interference) protection and is compliant with most safety and performance standards.

Conclusion

The D-Sub connector family is a versatile solution for industrial applications. The 172-E09-111-001 is one example of the many types of D-Sub connectors available, and it is ideally suited for interconnection of cables, sensors and low-voltage electronics.
