Terminal Blocks - Wire to Board

Terminal blocks, also known as terminal strips, are an important type of electrical connection components. The 2-1776112-3 terminal block is a Wire to Board type of connection component, and is used to transmit a signal, power, or data from a wire to a printed board circuit.

Application Field of 2-1776112-3 Terminal Block

The 2-1776112-3 terminal block is primarily used in PCB applications, including telecommunications, instrumentation, medical devices, computer and similar electronic applications. This particular terminal block is designed for large boards that are used in the above applications, with a wide array of voltage ratings ranging from 5 to 20 volts. It is also widely used in the aviation and automotive industries, as well as in AC/DC power supplies and LED lights, among other applications.

The terminal block has a wire-to-board connection that allows the connection to be made through the printed circuit board itself rather than connecting the wires directly. This allows for more secure connections and helps reduce the risk of short circuits or other electrical issues.

Working Principle of 2-1776112-3 Terminal Block

The 2-1776112-3 terminal block works according to the principle of impedance matching, which means that the current and voltage must be equal at the connection terminals or points. The terminal block thus ensures that the current and voltage applied to the electrical lines are matched to the voltage and current drawn by the connected circuit.

The terminal block features a self-securing clamping action that helps create strong electrical connections between the wires and the board. The connections between the wires and the board are also able to withstand vibration and shock without coming loose.

The 2-1776112-3 terminal block is designed to be easy to install and use, with no special tools or complex wiring required. It can even be used in confined spaces, since it is made with a compact design and is made from sturdy yet lightweight materials.

The terminal block is also UL rated, which means it is certified for international safety standards and is therefore safe to use in a wide variety of applications.
