88951-101LF Connectors, Interconnects

88951-101LF is an industrial grade backplane connector for high power applications that require an extremely robust and reliable environment. This robust solution offers high performance and cost-effective, allowing engineers to maximize their efficiency in designing products.

Applications

The 88951-101LF is primarily used in high-end industrial applications such as server and networking systems, automotive power trains, medical equipment, oil and gas, aerospace and defense applications, and more. In all applications, the 88951-101LF is advantageous due to its robust design and ability to provide reliable connections in extreme environmental conditions. In addition, this product has a range of features, such as high reliability and is suited as a mid-to-high-end solution for larger systems.

Connection and Interlocking Mechanism

The 88951-101LF is a male backplane connector that enables secure connections between two PCBs or other substrates. It has an interlocking mechanism which helps ensure strong, secure connections between the boards and/or connectors. This enables longer, more reliable contacts that can withstand shocks, vibrations, and other environmental stresses. This interlocking system is composed of a ridge and groove design, which minimizes the potential of contact loss due to contact misalignment, and prevents any accidental disconnection.

Pitch and Pin Out Variations

The 88951-101LF has a pitch of 2mm, a contact count of 120, and a current carrying capability of up to 3A. It is available in both SMT and through-hole versions, and offers both male and female connectors with 1 or 2 row switches. This ensures the right connection is made for each application, as the correct contact style and pin configuration are available for use. This also allows for higher densities with increased electrical performance.

Working Principle

The 88951-101LF is designed to provide secure and reliable connections between two substrates or connectors. The working principle for this connector is based on a ridge and groove design. The pin of the male connector is inserted into the connector and mates with the grooves in the female connection. The ridge then locks the connection in place and provides a secure connection. This mechanism ensures that any environmental stresses that the connector may face, such as shock or vibration, will not cause the connection to break and keep the connection stable.

Conclusion

The 88951-101LF backplane connector is designed for applications that require high power, high durability, and superior signal integrity. It provides secure and reliable connections between two substrates or connectors through an interlocking mechanism. It is available in both SMT and through-hole versions, and offers 1 or 2 row switches. In addition, this product has a range of features, such as high reliability and is suited as a mid-to-high-end solution for larger systems. Overall, this is a robust solution that engineers can leverage to maximize their efficiency in designing products.
