Rectangular connectors are probably one of the most popular all-purpose electrical connectors. Among the variety of rectangular connectors available, the 87610-208LF (also known as an 8-pole, 1-row long pin connector) is among the most popular. It is used by a variety of manufacturers and has a wide application range, which can be divided into two main categories: electrical and electronic.

We will start by looking into the 87610-208LF’s electrical applications. In the electrical field, these connectors are used mainly to provide power and an electrical path between components. In this instance, the connector can receive power from an external power source, and can act as a conduit to provide power to or from the device it is connected to. This can be beneficial for both commercial and residential applications - for example, it can provide a cost-effective way to power outdoor LED lighting applications.

In addition to electrical applications, the 87610-208LF can also be used in electronic applications. This type of connector is often used in place of other types of connectors, such as IC sockets, as it is more cost-effective and reduces the number of components needed per circuit board. In this sense, the 87610-208LF acts as a signal transmission interface, providing a reliable connection between signal sources and other circuit components.

Next, we will look into the working principle of the 87610-208LF. This connector consists of two main components - a male connector and a female contact - and works by way of a pin/socket connection.

The male part of the connector consists of an upper plastic part, and a lower metal part which features eight male pins protruding from it. The female part is also a two-piece design consisting of an upper plastic part, and a lower part which holds the eight female contacts in place. When the two parts of the connector are mated, the eight pins are inserted into the eight female contacts.

These contacts then provide a secure connection by creating an electrical connection between the pins and the female contacts. The plastic overmolding provides additional support against accidental removal of the contacts from the connector, while the design also ensures that the pins fit securely into the socket so that the connection is of low electrical resistance.

In conclusion, the 87610-208LF is one of the most widely used rectangular connectors. Not only is it cost effective and easy to install, but it also provides a reliable and secure power and signal connection between components. Thanks to its versatility, it has a wide variety of electrical and electronic applications, making it an ideal choice for a number of different projects.
