68691-206HLF

The featured product 68691-206HLF is a type of Header Connector, belonging to the Rectangular Connectors family. This particular product is a male pin terminal, meaning this connector housing needs to have 3.5mm pitch and double-row mated with female headers. The pins\' function is to provide secure electrical connections between the two mating parts, providing reliable high-speed data performance.

As a part of Header Connector family, 68691-206HLF is designed for reliable mating cycles and convenient to use. This connector has longer-than-normal stamp-pin/receptacle-post pairs for easy mating. The male pins are rated to peak current-carrying capacity of 10A and feature a durable anti-reflection coating.

The 68691-206HLF can be applied to a variety of industrial electronic applications, such as Automatic Test Equipment, Medical instruments, Automation, Robotics, Measurement systems, Controllers, Instrumentation and Displays. The uses of the connectors are also extended to consumer electronics like Home entertainment, White goods, Communication, Automotive and Lighting.

The working principle is quite easy. First, the male pins are inserted into the female headers. Once the male pins are in place, they’ll be held in by the contact force of springs. This ensures a secure connection between the two terminals, while enabling reliable high-speed data transmission. The male pin contacts are further covered with a special anti-reflective coating to shield them from corona and static discharge buildup. This helps shield the pins from damage.
