320-9514-002 Connectors, Interconnects

Card edge connectors are a type of electrical connector found on many types of electronic equipment. These connectors are typically used to allow the connection of wire to parts of an electronic circuit board. The type of card edge connector referred to as part number 320-9514-002 is a small form factor connector with an ergonomic design. The connectors are designed to provide an insulation displacement connection to wire, and to offer reliability and durability in applications where space is limited.

Types of Connectors Available

320-9514-002 Card Edge Connector is a single row female pin header. It is designed for 10 to 20 contacts, and offers a secure pivot lock for applications requiring frequent mating and unmating of the connector. It is made of high performance materials which allows it to withstand harsh industrial environments. This connector is ideal for applications where the connector needs to fit in low profile and tight spaces.

Applications and Usage

The most commonly used application of the 320-9514-002 connector is in the manufacture of consumer electronic equipment. The connector is often used to provide a reliable connection between a printed circuit board and the wiring, which is used to carry the electrical signals throughout the device. This connector is also used on medical equipment, instrumentation and test equipment, and process control applications that require the same type of reliable electrical connection.

Working Principle

The working principle behind the 320-9514-002 card edge connector is relatively simple. In order to provide the electrical connection requires for the device assembly, the connector transfers power from a printed circuit board to an external device such as a speaker, display, or controller. This is done by the connector applying outward pressure on contacts located on both the internal and external sides of the board. When the outward pressure is strong enough, a secure connection is established between the two boards. This connection is then secured and the device assembly is complete.

Advantages

The 320-9514-002 Card Edge Connector provides several advantages over other types of connectors found in electronic equipment. The connector\'s ergonomic design ensures that the connection is secure and reliable, and the connector\'s small form factor allows it to fit into tight spaces. The connector is also highly durable, with the materials used to construct the connector allowing it to withstand the harsh industrial settings often found in consumer electronics. This connector is also relatively simple to use, as it does not require any specialized tools or techniques to install or maintain.

Conclusion

The 320-9514-002 Card Edge Connector is an ideal choice for applications that require reliable electrical connections and are located in tight spaces. The ergonomic design helps to ensure that the connection is secure and reliable, while the small form factor allows the connector to fit into tight and low profile spaces. The connector is highly durable, and is relatively simple to install and maintain.
