Rectangular connectors - headers, male pins are known for their convenience in accepting additional wire connections. 68464-372HLF is a rectangular connector-header, Male Pin that is designed to be used in soldering applications. Such headers are also known as mezzanine connectors and they are typically used in high power applications such as in medical imaging, semiconductor packaging, telecoms and data networks.
Application Field:
The 68464-372HLF application field is vast. It can provide an efficient electrical connection in a variety of environments and occasions. It can be used in medical imaging devices for ER/MRI/CT scan applications. The unique process makes it able to be soldered down on the circuit board without any issue. It is used in networking, such as Ethernet, SDH/SONET/OC which requires high reliability, vibration resistance and broad operating temperature range. It is also used in data communications. Its small package size enables high density power and signal connectors in tight packing density. It can increases routing channel in the limited area and open up more space for other technology developments. In addition, its usage can also be found in drones, artificial intelligence, machine vision and other tech-related fields.
Working Principle:
The 68464-372HLF connector is a double row connector with 74 contacts. It has a steel body and 50mil contact pitch. Due to its two-piece structure design, it is very easy to assemble and can be soldered directly into the printed circuit board (PCB).The insulation of the 68464-372HLF is done by a dual layer thermoplastic and it works by providing two parts of insulation of each contact point. When two parts of insulation meet, a mechanical latch is created. This mechanical latch coupled with the internal retention clips to form a two-point insulation. This means that even if one part of the insulation is damaged, the other part remains intact, providing superior safety and ensuring low contact resistance. The 68464-372HLF connector also has an anti-twisting feature which makes it a reliable connection that maintains contact even with high vibration.
Conclusion:
The 68464-372HLF connector is a very useful tool for efficient electrical connections. It has a wide application range in medical imaging, semiconductor packaging, telecoms and data networks. Its two-part insulation and anti-twisting features ensure that it is safe and reliable for a number of applications.
