Rectangular Connectors - Arrays, Edge Type, Mezzanine (Board to Board) are versatile electrical components used to interconnect printed circuit boards and other electronic components. The 74217-001 is a popular model of this type of connector, which is able to provide both low and high power transmission. In this article, we will look at the 74217-001\'s application field and working principle.

Application Field and Uses: The 74217-001 is a versatile and reliable component suitable for a range of applications. It is commonly used in communication and broadcasting equipment– for example, it can be seen connecting signal and data transmitters. In the automotive industry, the 74217-001 is also used, mainly found in braking and stability systems, such as the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS). Moreover, it is present in all types of electronics and telecommunication devices– computer motherboards, laptops, phones, tablets, among others. Finally, it is also used in industrial automation systems, found in some components that require reliable and accurate connectors.

Working Principle: The 74217-001 connects two boards together to facilitate electrical communication. The working principle is based on the electrical contacts or wires running through the aligned holes in each of the boards. The 74217-001 connector features two rows of electrical contacts running along the sides of the rectangular body. Each contact consists of a spring metal plate inserted in a plastic body. As the boards come into contact, the metal contacts are aligned with the holes in the board and press against each other to establish an electrical connection. This action triggers an electrical signal traveling through the circuit and achieving the desired effect.

Advantages: As well as being highly versatile, the 74217-001 has a couple of other advantages: a relatively low cost, making it good for consumer electronics, and resistance to various electro-mechanical factors, such as temperature fluctuations, vibrations, and shock, making it suitable for outdoor and harsh environment uses. The connector also includes an extra retention clip, which is used to hold the two boards together, ensuring a secure connection. Finally, the 74217-001 has a rating of 16A and a voltage of 200V, granting it the capability needed for a range of applications.

Conclusion: The 74217-001 is a reliable and cost-effective component suitable for a range of applications, such as communication and broadcasting equipment, automotive systems, consumer electronics and automation systems. In addition, it is resistant to electro-mechanical factors, and its high power rating of 16A and voltage rating of 200V allow for efficient signal transmission. Its additional retention clip also helps to ensure secure connection between the two boards.
