68692-412

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins

The 68692-412 is a rectangular connector, commonly known as a Male Pin Header or Male Connector. It is used mainly as part of an electronic or electrical connection in a range of various electrical applications.

The 68692-412 is a two-piece, single row, straight pin connector, and includes a male or header side and a female side. The header side has an insulation displacement connector (IDC) system, which is used to form a connection by pressing together two wires. The female side features a pair of lances that slide up and down to create a connection with the header. Both sides are shielded against electromagnetic interference (EMI).

The 68692-412 is used in a variety of applications from automotive to consumer electronics. These include automotive manufacturing, medical device manufacturing, HVAC applications, and industrial control and automation. It is also used in the manufacturing of medical devices, for proximate sensing, data transmission, and wired control.

The 68692-412 connector is capable of speeds up to 10 Gb/s and is rated for voltages up to 500VAC. It is also RoHS compliant and UL recognized. The connector is available in a variety of configurations, depending on the application. These include single row, double row, triple row, and quad row versions. The single row version, for example, is used in certain automotive applications, such as electronic control units (ECUs).

The working principle of the 68692-412 is relatively simple. The header side has contacts that form a connection with the corresponding contacts on the female side, by insertion. The contact points are shielded to reduce the likelihood of interference from the surrounding environment. Once the contacts are aligned, the connection is formed. This principle is used in all types of electronic and electrical connections.

The 68692-412 is a reliable and efficient connector that is used extensively in a variety of applications. It is cost-effective and capable of carrying high data speeds, making it suitable for a wide range of electronics and electrical applications.
