57102-G06-16LF

57102-G06-16LF connectors are a type of rectangular connectors produced by FCI. Generally used where reliability is paramount, these connectors are widely employed in industrial, automotive, medical, and military applications. They meet some of the most stringent requirements and feature a range of customization options, enabling engineering teams to create specialized solutions when necessary.

The 57102-G06-16LF connectors are composed of two parts: the header, which includes the male pins, and the receptacle. The receptacle is the component that receives the transmitted signal from the header. It is usually the component that is mounted to the device, while the header is mated to a mating device and is subsequently removed from the receptacle. The header is the interface between the two parts.

The 57102-G06-16LF header is composed of two components that support the pins. The contact base is designed to spread thermal and mechanical loads placed on the pins, while the ramp spring supplies pressure against the header’s pins, creating an electrical connection between the header and the receptacle. The ramp spring also allows for insertion and extraction of the header from the receptacle without damage.

The header is composed of a solder bucket and 16 male pins. The solder bucket is the component designed to attach the header to the device. The male pins provide electrical connectivity between the header and the receptacle. Each pin has a metal or plastic tip which forms a good electrical connection with the receptacle. The pins are also classified according to their force-fit compatibility, which ensures that they provide sufficient force and contact area to create a stable electrical connection.

The receptacle of the 57102-G06-16LF connector consists of two spring contacts. Each spring contact is designed to provide electrical continuity between the connected pins. The contacts are also sized and configured differently to allow the insertion and retention of each pin without damage. Additionally, the contacts are fitted into a plastic molded housing which provides a physical and environmental barrier to protect them from damage.

The 57102-G06-16LF connector’s combined header and receptacle components provide a strong and reliable connection between external components. The header’s solder bucket ensures secure mounting of the connector, and the male pins provide a secure electrical connection. The receptacle\'s spring contacts ensure that the transmitted signal is properly received, while its plastic housing provides protection from the elements and physical damage. The 57102-G06-16LF is designed for reliability and longevity, making it an excellent choice for challenging applications in industrial, automotive, medical, and military settings.
