Rectangular connectors have been with us for a long time, they have a wide range of applications. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of 55508-146LF, a rectangular connector.

55508-146LF is a surface mount, low profile, vertical right angle board-to-board and wire-to-board interconnect system. It uses a box-type header and female sockets as the pin connection for mating. This connector system can support for 0.38 (9.6mm) to 0.64mm (16.0mm) thick boards.

The 55508-146LF connector system provides high-performance signal integrity due to their low compression force contacts, which are available in 2 to 30 positions. This system also provides increased enclosure heights because of its reduced vertical profile.

The male header of 55508-146LF consists of two rows of pins that slide into a plastic housing. The pins are configured to snap into the plastic housing when pressed, thus providing a secure connection. The female socket consists of a plastic housing with central retaining posts. The receptacles for the male header have pins that slide into the plastic housing such that they can make contact with each other.

55508-146LF is ideally suited for board-to-board and wire-to-board applications in consumer electronics, medical, communication, automotive, industrial, military, and aerospace industries.

It is suitable for applications where low profile connectors are needed due to limited board-to-board spacing and can be used in high vibration environments. The low profile configuration also enables easy surface mounting, further enhancing its design flexibility and applicability. It also provides easier routing for power and signal connections.

The working principle of this connector system is simple – the pins are press fit into the plastic housing and the contact force between the pins is controlled by a special coating. When the pins are inserted into the female socket, they create an electrical connection that is reliable and consistent over time. This ensures that signals can be transmited with minimal interference and loss of data.

The 55508-146LF connector system provides an easy connection solution for boards and wires that require high performance. Its low profile and secure connection make it perfect for applications needing a slight part or where space is limited. Its electrical connection ensures signal and data integrity, making it a reliable choice for a wide range of applications.
