316370-6 Connectors, Interconnects

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins

The 316370-6 connector is a versatile 3mm square, 0.05" pitch, two-row header that can be used in a wide range of applications. This particular model has no mounting lances or posts but is available in alternative models with lances and posts providing for a stronger, more reliable connection.

Application Field

The 316370-6 connector is frequently used in medium-density applications, as well as other areas with limited space available. This connector is especially popular within the defense industry, industrial controls, medical equipment, communications, alternative energies, automotive electronics and personal electronics.

This particular header is ideal for applications requiring space saving, with limited density. It is designed for PCB mounting, fitting firmly with surface mount soldering for maximum stability; making it a great choice for applications such as test and measurement equipment.

Working Principle

The 316370-6 connector works on a three-point principle with the contact shells partly insulated from the middle shell of the connector. In turn, the shells enable the contacts to make high-level connections.

To ensure maximum performance, all the contact connections are soldered to the printed circuit board. This means that the connectors provide a tough, resilient connection, with excellent electrical corrosion resistance.

Conclusion

The 316370-6 connector is a flexible and reliable choice for medium-density applications, such as those found in the defense, medical and automotive industries. Its 3mm pitch and two-row design allows for easy PCB assembly, while its contact arrangement ensures industry-leading performance and extensive electrical corrosion protection.
