Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins, commonly referred to as the 68691-408, is a popular interconnect solution for embedded electronics applications. It is comprised of two straight, rectangular-shaped headers with two rectangular-shaped pins protruding from the center of each connecting unit. This unique connector design offers multiple advantages over traditional cable joinery techniques, such as reliable electrical connection, improved durability, and reduced manufacturing time.

Design

The 68691-408 connector was designed for use in harsh environments. Its housing is made of reinforced thermoplastic, which is extremely robust and resistant to shocks, vibration, dust and moisture. This ensures that the connector will remain intact and functioning for years to come. It also has a tight locking mechanism, which seals the connection and stops it from becoming loose over time. The pins have a low insertion force, allowing them to be easily plugged in and out without causing any damage. In addition, the connector has a low profile design which is suitable for miniaturized applications.

Performance

The 68691-408 connectors deliver excellent performance in terms of electrical connection integrity. The gold plating on the pins and receptacles offers high conductivity and resistance to corrosion. The contact force between the pins and receptacles is optimized for reliable electrical connection and low contact resistance. Furthermore, the connectors are rated for operating temperatures ranging from -40 to +105°C. This makes them suitable for a wide range of applications, including medical and industrial.

Manufacturing

The rectangular connectors are relatively easy to manufacture. The pins are injection molded, and the housing is created through a rapid prototyping process. This greatly reduces the manufacturing time, allowing for quick and cost effective manufacturing. The connectors also have an integrated insertion and extraction tool which simplifies the process of inserting and extracting the pins from the housing.

Applications

The 68691-408 connector is widely used in many electronic applications, such as consumer electronics, industrial automation, medical equipment and automotive. Its small size and easy installation make it ideal for miniaturized applications. It is also suitable for automotive applications, including LED lighting, instrument panels and engine control systems. In addition, the connector is used in the telecommunications industry for transmission of video, audio and data signals.

Working Principle

The 68691-408 connectors work by providing an electrical and mechanical connection between two separate devices. The rectangular-shaped pins are inserted into the sockets on the housing and make contact with the gold plated contacts. When the pins are inserted and the locking mechanism engaged, a secure electrical and mechanical connection is established. This connection allows signals and power to flow freely between the connecting devices.
