75844-118-20

Rectangular connectors, also known as headers, are used to provide electrical connections between components in electronic equipment. The 75844-118-20 is a two-row horizontal male pin header connector, and is generally used in industrial and commercial applications.

The 75844-118-20 connector contains pins arranged in two rows, with twenty pins in the top row and eighteen pins in the bottom row. The pins are space on a 2.54mm pitch, which is the standard spacing for most pin header connectors. The pins can be soldered directly to a circuit board or connected with wires.

When used for general electronic connections, the 75844-118-20 connector is suitable for use with systems requiring currents up to 5A per contact. This connector is also designed to stand up to rigorous vibration and shock, and is therefore an ideal choice for robust connections in industrial and laboratory environments.

For more demanding electronics applications, the 75844-118-20 can also be used for high current applications. It can be used with higher currents up to 10A, but this requires special attention to proper soldering techniques and heat sinking. This connector is also suitable for high-speed applications, as it has a signal rate of up to 25Gbp/s.

In terms of its mechanical construction, the 75844-118-20 connector is made of a durable plastic housing and metal pins. The housing ensures the integrity of the connection and is also designed to protect against dust and moisture. The pins are made of high-grade metal, giving them superior corrosion resistance and durability.

The working principle of the 75844-118-20 connector is simple. When the pins are inserted into the housing, electrical connections are formed between the pins, creating conductive pathways for current to flow. The pins can easily be disconnected from the housing by pressing down on the connector, allowing for the quick removal and reconfiguration of circuits without the need for specialized tools.

The 75844-118-20 is a versatile and reliable rectangular connector suitable for use in a variety of electronic applications. Its two-row horizontal pin design makes it ideal for many standard and specialized applications, while its durability and mechanical construction make it suitable for demanding applications such as industrial and laboratory environments.
