658807713040 Connectors, Interconnects

The 658807713040 is a type of rectangular connector, part of the Arrays, Edge Type, Mezzanine (Board to Board) connectors category. These connectors are designed with two boards that are connected using multiple pins that are arranged in a rectangular form-factor. The 658807713040 comes in a standard length of 20mm, and has a pitch of 2.54 mm. These features make the connector suitable for applications involving high-density device mounting.

The 658807713040 connector is designed primarily for high-reliability electronic system interconnections. It is typically used for connecting different PCBs, such as in microcontrollers and other embedded system applications. The 658807713040 has a total of 68 I/O contacts, which are arranged around the edge of the board in a series of 8 vertical layers, with each layer having 8 male and 8 female pins. The connector is made of tin-plated phosphor bronze, and the contact material is gold over nickel. This ensures high-reliability electrical connections between the boards.

The 658807713040 connector uses a mechanical latch to ensure a secure and reliable connection between the boards. The latch mechanism operates by utilizing a spring-loaded tension clip which engages a plastic latch plate that is attached to each board. This creates a strong mechanical attachment, while also providing additional electrical connection. The connector is rated for 2A (DC) and 50V (AC), which makes it suitable for a variety of applications.

The 658807713040 connector also offers additional features for added convenience and safety. It has an auxiliary power/ground contact that is used for providing power/ground to multiple pins on the connector, thereby eliminating the need for multiple power/ground terminals. The connector also has a fly-through hole that allows for the insertion of wire harnesses for routing signals from one portion of the board to another. Lastly, the contact surface of the connector has a UV resistance coating that helps protect the contact surface from UV degradation over time.

In sum, the 658807713040 connector is an ideal solution for applications that require high-density interconnections between different PCBs. It offers a secure mechanical and electrical connection between the boards, while also providing additional features for increased convenience and safety. Its gold-over-nickel contact material ensures high-reliability, while its 2A (DC) and 50V (AC) rating makes it suitable for many high-current applications.
