280618-3

Rectangular connectors have become an increasingly important component in many electronic and industrial devices. These connectors are designed to have an extremely durable and reliable connection between two components, often in the presence of extreme temperatures and pressures. Connector types include headers, male pins, terminal blocks, and more. Both male and female versions are available.

The 280618-3 is a 3way rectangular connector from the family of connectors manufactured and supplied by the Amphenol Group. This 3way connector is a molded plastic connector, with a removable head, having three pins in each section. It has a gold plated contact surface, designed to provide reliable and durable contact. The connector\'s pin placement follows the standard industry pattern, as do its other specifications.

This connector is designed mainly for data, voice and audio applications. It is ideal for applications where small, standardized connections are required. It can be used for a large variety of connections, from industrial and medical applications to home electronics, such as mobile phones and MP3 players. In all cases, the connector ensures a reliable connection regardless of the environmental conditions. The connector can also be used for power transfer, although more intense applications may not be suitable.

The 280618-3 connector offers a number of features and advantages. First, it is small, compact, and easy to install. It also features high-density signal routing capabilities. The pins are also plated with gold for corrosion resistance, and provide reliable contact over many thousands of cycles. With its low contact resistance, the connector offers superior data transfer and signal integrity performance. The connector also offers excellent EMI shielding and signal isolation, making it ideal for applications where EMI is a concern.

In terms of working principle, the 280618-3 connector works in much the same way as other rectangular connectors. When the connector is mated, the two sets of pins line up with each other, and each pin makes contact with its corresponding counterpart. This creates a closed circuit, which allows the electrical feature to be transmitted. The connector is held in place by the force of the pins, while, at the same time, the plastic housing of the connector provides strain relief. This ensures that the contact points remain secure and the signal integrity remains high.

The 280618-3 connector is a great solution for these types of applications, as it is reliable and easy to use. It is also relatively inexpensive when compared to other options. Its gold plating helps provide superior performance in high speed applications, and it is designed to last many thousands of cycles. With its compact size and high-density signal routing capabilities, this connector is perfect for many different types of connections.
