D-Shaped Connectors - CentronicsD-shaped connectors are ubiquitous in modern electronics, from data and audio cables to the back of your TV to computer components. Though they may seem mundane, these inexpensive connectors form the backbone of most consumer electronics today. While their basic form has remained fairly consistent over time, their many variations and the myriad application fields in which they are used means that they still have a valuable role to play in the modern world. The 72346-001 connector in particular is a variant on the classic design, with a few distinct characteristics which make it popular in certain applications. This article will cover the application fields and working principles of the 72346-001 connector.The 72346-001 connector is a component of D-shaped connectors found in many digital products, most notably in computers. The shape of these connectors provides a very reliable contact between the device and the cable, making them useful in applications where this is important, such as data transfer. This shape also means that they provide a snug fit in most places, providing protection against dust, dirt, and moisture. Their small size and lightweight design make them convenient for use with small devices, such as laptops and tablets.The 72346-001 connector has a few distinguishing characteristics which make it different from other D-shaped connectors. Firstly, the shape of the connector is slightly different. Instead of the classic “D” shape, this connector has a blunted corner, creating a square-ish shape which is easier to insert into tight areas. Additionally, the pins on the female side of the connector are slightly longer, improving the connection to the device.Aside from these features, the 72346-001 connector operates on the same principles as any other D-shaped connector. The male and female sides are held together by two pins. When a device is connected to the cable, the pins piercing the conductive core of the cable complete an electrical circuit, allowing data or power to flow. This process is reversible, with power and data easily flowing in both directions between the device and the cable.The 72346-001 connector\'s distinguishing characteristics make it a popular choice in many applications. It is commonly used with digital products such as computers, tablets, and laptops. It is also useful in audio and video applications, particularly in home theatre set-ups. Furthermore, many industrial products, such as control systems, use this type of connector due to its reliability and compatibility with other devices.In summary, the 72346-001 connector is a variant on the classic D-shaped connector. Its squarer shape makes it easier to fit into tight spaces, while its longer pins improve contact with the device. This combination makes it useful for many applications, from computers to home theatres. Its versatility and reliability makes it a popular connector in the world of electronics, and it will likely remain so for many years to come.
