51940-113LF

The 51940-113LF is a specialized backplane connectors designed for use in a variety of situations and applications. This connector is primarily used in applications requiring high-speed data transfer and small form factor for packaging versatility. It is also commonly used in applications where noise and electromagnetic interference (EMI) suppression are paramount.

The 51940-113LF is available in both standard (10Gb/s) and high (12Gb/s) speed options. The housing is typically made from either brass or aluminum, and the contact is typically made from steel or phosphor bronze. The typical footprint of the connector is only 14.4mm x 7.5mm, making it ideal for applications with limited space. In addition, the 51940-113LF is available with several different ground-path options to control EMI, allowing for customization to best fit the application.

In terms of contact arrangement, the 51940-113LF is typically configured as 6-row by 30-column, allowing for a maximum of 180 contacts. The contact-pitch is 1.27mm (50 mil) both horizontally and vertically, and the connector is designed to accept contact sizes from 0.5mm to 0.6mm. This allows for a wide range of different contact types to be used within the connector.

The working principle of the 51940-113LF is relatively simple. The contacts are inserted into the connector, with the two rows at the end of the connector (rows 1 and 6) having power contacts. The other rows contain signal contacts that transfer data between the pins. The contacts are then held in place with a clip that is secured to the backplane using two set screws. The contacts are then subjected to a crimping and soldering process to ensure that the connections are firmly secured.

The 51940-113LF is a reliable and versatile backplane connector. It provides a high-speed connection between two cards and is suitable for applications with limited space and high EMI requirements. It is available in both standard and high speed options, and can be configured with various ground-path options to best fit the application\'s needs. With its compact form factor and reliable connections, the 51940-113LF is an excellent choice for a wide range of applications.
