74390-101LF Connectors, Interconnects

The 74390-101LF is a rectangular connector part of the Arrays, Edge Type, Mezzanine (Board to Board) series, which allows two electronic printed circuit boards (PCBs) to connect via a mezzanine or card-edge interface. This connection method is used between various electronic equipment, including computers, cell phones, digital cameras and gaming consoles.

The 74390-101LF is a dual-row, side-entry card-edge connector designed specifically for low-profile applications. It is made up of two pieces that both have five positions each. Both pieces have a board edge that slides into each other and then locks to create an electrical connection between the two boards. The dual-row design means that all 10 positions in the connector are in contact with each other, allowing for fast and simple interconnections between two boards.

The 74390-101LF uses edge contacts to make a connection. These contacts are made of a gold plated metal material and are designed to be relatively corrosion-resistant. The contacts fit into a recessed area in the female portion of the connector which allow it to slide into place and make an electrical connection without any extra soldering or crimping. Because of this design, the 74390-101LF is also suitable for use in applications with a limited amount of space.

The 74390-101LF is designed to operate at a range of power levels from 10A to 30A. The connector is rated for peak current up to 4A and continuous current up to 2A. It is rated for an operation temperature of -55°C to +105°C and has a dielectric withstanding of 700V AC. The connector has a rated insulation resistance of 1000MΩ (min) and offers a UL approved current-carrying capacity of up to 2A. The connector also provides shielding from electromagnetic interference.

The 74390-101LF is a versatile connector, and can be used in a variety of applications such as communication systems, automotive applications, consumer electronics and medical equipment. It is an ideal connector for applications that require a low-profile design, easy installation and reliable electrical connections. The connector is highly reliable even in extreme environments and is designed to withstand vibration and shock for long lasting performance.
