43650-1204

Introduction

The 43650-1204 is a rectangular connector belonging to the Headers, Male Pins family of connectors that are used for various power, electrical, and signal applications. It is a two-position header that has a 0.1 inch grid spacing, allowing easy mounting and wiring. With a terminal pitch of 0.1 inches and a rated current of 3.2A, the 43650-1204 is well suited for cost-effective, high-density connectors.

Application Field

The 43650-1204 is a versatile connector that can be used in a variety of applications. It is commonly used in networking, industrial, automotive, medical, and consumer electronics. It is an ideal choice for applications where a frequent connection and disconnection of two points is required, such as in data communications and USB connections. With its high current rating of 3.2A, it is also suitable for power applications, such as automotive and consumer electronics.

Working Principle

The 43650-1204 is a two-position rectangular connector which consists of two connectors, a male and a female. The male connector is designed with two male pins that are inserted into the female connector, providing an electrical and mechanical connection. The male and female pins must be mated correctly to ensure proper conductivity. This is typically done by placing the male connector into the female connector and pressing the two parts together, which causes the pins to make contact with one another.

Once the male and female connectors are connected, they must remain in place and secure. To ensure a secure connection, the 43650-1204 is designed with a retention lock mechanism. This lock mechanism consists of two locking clips on either side of the male and female connectors that engage when the connectors are paired. This lock ensures the connection is made securely in the correct position and will not come apart unless the locking clips are disengaged.

Conclusion

The 43650-1204 rectangular connector belonging to the Headers, Male Pins family of connectors is an ideal choice for many power, electrical, and signal applications. With a 0.1 inch grid spacing, a terminal pitch of 0.1 inches, and a rated current of 3.2A, this connector provides a secure connection that is both cost-effective and high density. Additionally, it provides a retention lock mechanism that insures the connection does not come apart unless intentionally disengaged.
