Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Specialty Pin

370-10-145-00-001000 connectors are commonly referred to as rectangular headers and have become an increasingly popular choice, as they offer a relatively low profile design, where you get the benefit of the added shielding and conductivity of a larger connector without adding significantly to the overall profile.

Rectangular headers consist of a number of separate components, including; a metal contact, a plastic housing, and a metal housing. The metal contact is the main electrical connection, and is usually made from metal alloys such as stainless steel or brass. The plastic housing covers the contact and provides additional protection from vibration and environmental elements, as well as providing strain relief. The metal housing, or shield, adds additional protection from interference and is usually made from plated steel or aluminum.

The 380-10-145-00-001000 connectors are designed to fit numerous applications and have various features designed for the specific application. Some of the features include; pin count (the number of pins used by the connector), housing type (straight or right-angle), voltage rating, current rating, temperature rating, sealing rating, and UL rating. Different connectors may also be described by their contact termination size, contact pitch, and contact connector termination type.

The applications for the 380-10-145-00-001000 connectors are quite varied, ranging from computer accessories to automotive. In computer applications, the rectangular connectors provide a convenient way to connect and allow extra components, such as extra memory or video cards, to be easily connected. In automotive applications, the connectors are used to facilitate the connection of accessories, such as air conditioning systems, power steering systems, and audio systems, to the main vehicle wiring. In general, the 380-10-145-00-001000 connector is small enough to fit into tight spaces, and yet powerful enough to carry the necessary current.

The working principle of the 380-10-145-00-001000 connector is relatively simple. The connector consists of two or more pins which are each attached to the plastic housing. When the connection is made, the pins make contact with the metal housing, and the electrical current is allowed to flow between the pins and the contacts. By varying the distance between the pins and the contacts, the connector can be adjusted to suit different applications.

In conclusion, the 380-10-145-00-001000 connectors are a versatile and convenient way to connect various applications, from computer accessories to automotive systems. The simple but effective working principle allows them to be adapted to fit various applications, and their relatively low profile design allows them to be used in tight spaces. As a result, the 380-10-145-00-001000 connectors have become an increasingly popular choice for connecting various systems.
