58102-S61-16 Application Field and Working Principle

Rectangular connectors, also known as headers, male pins, are a component used to make mechanical and electrical connections between two or more boards, devices, or systems. 58102-S61-16 is a rectangular connector and the common field of application is in computer/consumer electronics, industrial/instrumentation and communication/security systems.

Mechanical Specifications

58102-S61-16 has a thickness of 10.11mm, a height of 6.09mm, and an outside width of 4.34mm. The total pins are 16 and the corner radius is 0.20mm. It is designed to fit standard 0.12mm square pins and is rated for 500 mating cycles with minimum guide force.

Electrical Specifications

58102-S61-16 has an insulation resistance of 500MΩ Min. and a dielectric withstanding voltage of 500V AC. It also has a contact resistance of 20mΩ Max. and a rated voltage of 100V AC.

Working Principle

The 58102-S61-16 rectangular connector is composed of two parts and each has an array of either male or female pins. In order to establish an electrical connection between two boards or devices, the male pin is inserted into the female socket. When the connection is properly fit, the contacting pins provide an electrical path that enables the power and signal to pass from one board to another. In addition, the connector can also be used as a jumper cable to create connections between the pins of a device. In this case, the male pins create a bridge connection between two points on the PCB.Finally, the 58102-S61-16 rectangular connector can be used as a stand-alone device or as a part of an assembly. It can also be used to replace old connectors, to provide a reliable and consistent connection.

Conclusion

58102-S61-16 is a highly reliable and versatile rectangular connector suitable for use in various computer and consumer electronics, industrial, and communication/security systems. It can be used as a stand-alone connector, to create bridges between pins, or to replace old connectors. Finally, it meets all the required mechanical and electrical specifications.
