Rectangular connectors – arrays, edge type, mezzanine (board to board) are becoming increasingly popular due to their ability to provide a reliable electrical connection between various components of a device. Force-guided contacts are often used in these connectors, as they guarantee the expected contact force and provide a secure, low-force connection without any damage to the metallization traces on the connector contacts. The 176379-5 connector is a prime example of such a connector, specifically designed to provide a stable electrical connection between multiple electronic components.

The 176379-5 connector is available in two popular versions – shielded and unshielded. The type of connector selected depends on the expected level of electromagnetic interference (EMI) in the application. Unshielded connectors are cheaper than the shielded versions, but they do not provide adequate protection against stray electromagnetic radiation. On the other hand, the shielded versions provide significant EMI protection, thus reducing the chance of false operation and other system malfunctions caused by EMI.

Each 176379-5 connector consists of a pair of housings which contain the contact elements. These contact elements are divided into two sets, mounted on each housing. They form a connecting bridge between the two housings and provide an electrical connection. The contacts are arranged in an array formation, with the contacts having the same polarity organized in a line. This makes it easy to ensure a consistent connection between components. In addition, the array formation helps to reduce the effects of vibration and shock on the connector.

The contact elements of the 176379-5 connector were designed with gold plating for high reliability. The gold plating helps to reduce contact resistance, thus improving connection performance while lowering power consumption. It also offers corrosion resistance and protection from oxidation, which extends the life of the contact elements and ensures a stable connection over a long period of time. In addition, the gold plating also has electrical conduction properties which maintain a low level of contact noise.

The 176379-5 connector is designed to be used in a board to board configuration. This means that the two housings are mounted on separate, corresponding printed circuit boards (PCBs). The contacts on each housing are aligned in such a way that, when the housings are mated, the contact elements on each housing make contact with the corresponding contact elements on the other housing. The housings are held in place using screws, clips or other fasteners.

The 176379-5 connector is particularly suitable for applications which require a high level of connectivity and electrical performance. Its reliable contact force ensures a consistent electrical connection and low contact resistance. All of these features improve the reliability and performance of the connected components. In addition, the connector is relatively small, letting it fit into smaller spaces. This means that it can be used in applications where space is limited.
