Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

Rectangular connectors are used to mechanically connect two or more electrical components together. They are commonly used on printed circuit boards, in electrical boxes, and on electrical apparatus. Some of the more common rectangular connectors are numbered 68683-344LF, which are usually purchased pre-assembled and can be used in a variety of applications.

Application Field

The 68683-344LF number refers to a combination of a standard socket receptacle and a single male pin header which has a polarizing notch at its base. This primarily allows the connection of electronic development boards to display or user interface boards. Common applications for these connectors include consumer electronics components, computers and microprocessor-controlled products. It can also be used for automotive and telecom applications. Other types of connectors can not connect electronic boards with such a high level of accuracy as 68683-344LF.

Working Principle

When power is applied to these connectors, two different pieces mechanically interact. The header will be pushed in and the socket will work to secure the connection. The interconnects are typically constructed of plastic and tin-plated brass for maximum corrosion resistance and wear resistance. The body of the receptacle is made of a molded plastic material with locking elements for secure contact retention. The pins from the header are made of a phosphor bronze material, which has maximum electrical conductivity. The pins insert into the sockets and are securely held in place by a plastic retaining wall.

The electrical contacts within the 68683-344LF are rated for current of up to 3A and voltage of 250V when used with PCBs. The contacts are also plated with gold, which improves conductivity and increases the lifetime of the connection. The header and socket are also designed with a polarization notch which allows them to be properly mated with one another, ensuring a secure and safe connection.

Conclusion

The 68683-344LF rectangular connectors are designed to provide a reliable electrical connection for a variety of applications. The combination of a socket receptacle and header with polarization notch provides a reliable connection and high accuracy when connecting electronic development boards to display or user interface boards. They are typically constructed of plastic and tin-plated brass for maximum corrosion resistance and wear resistance. The electrical contacts within the 68683-344LF are rated for current of up to 3A and voltage of 250V when used with PCBs. The combination of the two features makes these connectors an ideal solution for a variety of applications.
