71233-0001

71233-0001 is an electronic component broadly categorized as rectangular connectors—headers, male pins. A header is a type of connector used to join parts or boards together in an electrical circuit. The 71233-0001 header features a plurality of pins arranged in single or double-row configurations and possesses the advantages of availability in different sizes and shapes, and ease of use.

The normal operating voltage and temperature range of the 71233-0001 headers are between 75V and 10A with temperatures ranging from -40 to +85°C. The housing is constructed of black Thermoplastic Polyester material, which offers several advantages for use including oil resistance, chemical resistance, and high temperature resistance.

The 71233-0001 headers are generally employed in power supplies, industrial controllers, medical equipments, automotive applications, consumer electronics, and other electronic devices. The headers provide electrical connections, determine assemblies and provide a functional link to a circuit. The primary purpose of the 71233-0001 headers is to provide a reliable physical and electrical connection between multiple components.

In terms of working principle, the 71233-0001 headers consist of the male pins (male header), female pins (female header) and the plastic insulating housings. The pins are securely placed in the housings and the header consists of a pair of mating surfaces, such as a pair of printed circuit boards. The pins are forced into the housings until a mechanical and electrical connection is made.

When the header is mated, the male pins make a physical and electrical connection with the female pins or stamped contacts. The female contacts can either be through-hole or SMT (surface-mount) components. With through-hole components, the pins of the contacts are inserted into a hole cut in the PCB, while in the SMT the contacts are soldered onto the surface of the board. The mechanical and electrical connection of the pins and contacts is ensured through a small cavity between the two contact surfaces.

The 71233-0001 header is a versatile device that allows for quick and reliable connection of different components within an electrical system. Thanks to its multiple advantageous features, the 71233-0001 header is used in a broad range of applications, from industrial control to consumer electronics.
