640467-3

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets are used in a variety of application areas, such as computer, telecommunications, automotive, consumer electronics and more. 640467-3 is a male header with a 2mm pitch and suitable for applications such as panel mount. This type of connector provides a way to make electrical connection with a section that allows insertion of pin on one side and insertion of a socket on the other side – in this case, a 640467-3 header and a female socket. This type of connector can be used with both signal and power connections.

The 640467-3 header is designed to provide a highly reliable connection between two components. It has gold-plated contacts for improved performance and signal integrity. The contacts are also gold-plated to ensure a low contact resistance. With a 2mm pitch, it is ideal for applications where a high density of connections is required.

The 640467-3 connects via two mating components – a header and a female socket. The header features two rows of 2.00mm male contacts for connection with the mating female socket. The female socket, however, features two rows of female contacts. The header must be inserted into the female socket for the electrical connection to be established.

The 640467-3 header features a safety guard, which prevents short-circuiting between contact pins. This guard ensures that only correctly aligned mating components can complete a connection. The guard also provides additional protection against mechanical and environmental damage.

In terms of application, the 640467-3 header is suitable for a variety of industries, including automotive, consumer electronics, data and communications, medical, and military/aerospace. It is also used in high-speed data applications, such as USB 3.0, as well as in board-to-board and cable-to-board connections. The header has a current rating of 2A, a dielectric withstanding voltage of 500V, and contact resistance of 20mΩ maximum.

The working principle of the 640467-3 header is quite simple. The two mating components – the header and the female socket – must be aligned correctly before insertion. Once inserted, the header is securely held in place by the mating female socket. Once the electrical connection is established, data and/or power is transferred through the contacts, thereby enabling the electrical connection between the two components.
