Backplane Connectors: DIN 41612

The DIN 41612 backplane connector range has been designed to meet the stringent requirements of the 86093967894755AILF application field. As a result these connectors are well suited for high speed data transfer applications in telecommunication, industrial, military, and aerospace technologies.

The DIN 41612 connectors offer low profile, easy to use solutions for a variety of applications. The wide selection of contact positions, lead-in chamfers, and color-coded or stamped contact numbers make this range an ideal choice for high-density applications.

This range of connectors offers a variety of electrical performance advantages as well. These include a high thermal and electrical conductivity and the capability to provide high EMC performance. Also, the connectors are rated for UL 94V-2 flame retardant materials.

Components of the Connector

The DIN 41612 connector consists of a plug and a socket, and the plug is usually terminated to the cable using soldering. The plug features latching claws, lock together the two mating halves securely. The plugs and sockets feature positive locking, making them suitable to applications in which the disconnect and reconnect requires no additional tools or wiring.

Plug and socket mate together via pins and sockets which serve to create reliable electrical contact. The pins and sockets are arranged in a specific manner, to ensure proper mating. The pins are encased within a dielectric material protecting them against dirt and other contaminates.

Working Principle

The working principle of the DIN 41612 system is based on the electrical connection between the two mating parts. When a signal is transmitted from one item of equipment, or the cable assembly, to a mating item of equipment on the opposite side, the signal is routed through the connector. As the signal passes through the connector it is directed to the pins and sockets.

The pins and sockets serve to make the electrical connection between the two parts, thereby forming the electrical path for the signal. In order for the signal to reach its intended target, the pins and sockets must be connected in the correct orientation. This is why it is important to pay close attention to the orientation of the connector when making a connection.

In order to provide a reliable electrical connection between the pins and sockets, a number of mechanisms are used. For example, the pins may be coated with a specific material to promote electrical conduction. Another method is to ensure a tight fit between the pins and sockets, so that the connection does not become loose in the event the contact is moved.

Benefits

The DIN 41612 system offers a number of benefits for applications in industrial, military, and aerospace technologies. Firstly, the connectors offer a high performance rate, with the ability to transmit data at speeds up to 12.5 Gb/s. Secondly, the use of positive locking mechanisms allows the connectors to remain securely locked together even in the most demanding environments.

Finally, the connectors offer an effective yet low-profile solution for high-density applications. With their minimal profile, the connectors can be mounted in a variety of spaces, allowing for the highest possible density of connectors on a PCB. Furthermore, the connectors have a high durability rating and can be used in high-temperature and harsh environment applications.

Conclusion

The DIN 41612 backplane connector range provides a versatile, cost-effective solution for applications requiring high-performance connectors. The connectors offer a wide range of features and benefits including low profile, reliable electrical connection, and high performance data transfer. Furthermore, the connectors are designed for durability and their small size allows for a high density of connectivity solutions.
