Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins, 6364106-4 Application Field and Working Principle

The 6364106-4 header product is part of a comprehensive range of PCB bulkhead rectangular connectors from leading manufacturers. This device is designed for a variety of applications, including automotive, industrial, audio, and consumer electronics. It features male pins and provides a reliable connection in even the harshest environments.

The 6364106-4 header features a single, reversible, four-pin design. This design offers versatility due to its versatility in either a single or multi-laned configuration. The two male pins are spaced with a gap of 2.54mm for an optimal fit. This gap is slightly larger than the standard 0.1” interconnects used in most PCB applications, allowing manufacturers to fit the pins into more spaces. In addition, the design features two locating pins, which allows the connector to be inserted into the board quickly and securely.

The material used in the 6364106-4 header is typically either brass or bronze, depending upon the application. This material is chosen for its high strength and electrical conductivity, as well as its capability to withstand shock and vibration. The pins are plated with gold or silver, offering excellent electrical performance, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance.

The working principle behind the 6364106-4 header is based on the classic approach of electrical connections through a degree of compression. When the male pins are inserted into the appropriate PCB slot, they will swell slightly and form a tight connection. This small swelling creates an electrical connection that is highly resistant to signal loss, corrosion, and other environmental factors.

In addition to ensuring a reliable electrical connection, the 6364106-4 header can also help in preventing accidental contact with the circuit board’s electrical components. The device’s design includes a protective cover, which prevents fingers and other objects from making contact with the circuit board’s parts and circuitry. This cover also helps in reducing the amount of electrostatic discharge (ESD) that can occur when connecting or disconnecting the device.

The 6364106-4 header is well suited for low-speed, low-power applications, such as digital logic circuits and audio applications. Its construction and design allow it to offer excellent protection against EMI, ESD, and vibration. It is also RoHS compliant and UL recognized, making it a safe choice for use in a variety of applications.
