72454-022LF

Rectangular connectors are essential parts of many devices and systems, as they provide a reliable and efficient connection between different circuit components. The 72454-022LF from TE Connectivity is a type of rectangular connector, called a header, that is male and comes in a lead-free termination style. It is a versatile miniature header, and due to its small size, is suitable for a variety of applications.

The 72454-022LF has a 1.77mm pitch and a length of 17.78mm. It has 2 circuits, with each one comprising of two pins (2 x 2). The pins are 3.94mm long and are made with AU0–ready copper alloy, which is a lead-free material. Both the construction and the material of the pins make for a robust connection that can withstand a range of harsh environmental conditions.

This miniature header has a Molex Duoflex™ design, which allows for dual-row designs and maximizes the space savings in the application. It has a low profile, meaning that it fits into tight spaces, and due to its tab and polarized end design, is resistant to mismatched orientation and rotation. The 72454-022LF has a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C, and can cope with a maximum current of 1.5A.

The 72454-022LF is an ideal header for use in a variety of situations, given its easy installation, versatile communication, and reliable connection. The most common applications include power communications, telecom modules, solar power, industrial controls, audio/visual systems, and consumer electronics.

The functioning and working principle of the 72454-022LF is based on the transmission of electrical signals through a conductor. The conductor allows for an electrical connection between two contact points, enabling electrical energy to pass from one point to another. In the case of the 72454-022LF, the pins are used as the contact points, allowing electrical signals to travel between them. This enables the device to send and receive electrical signals, and thus perform its desired function.

The 72454-022LF from TE Connectivity is a versatile miniature header that meets all the requirements of common power, communication, and mechanical applications. Its small size and low profile make it suitable for even the tightest spaces, and its Molex Duoflex™ design ensures that it is resistant to mismatched orientation and rotation. Additionally, its lead-free AU0–ready copper alloy pins ensure a reliable and robust connection that can withstand a range of harsh environmental conditions.
