Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

Rectangular connectors, also known as headers, receptacles, female sockets, and D-Subminiature connectors, are commonly used in electronic devices as power sources or communication pathways. The 91601-313 connectors is one type of rectangular connector that is used for power and signal applications in computers, telecommunications, consumer electronic equipment, automation and control systems, and the medical industry.

Applications of 91601-313 Connectors

The 91601-313 connector is part of the series known as the EZ-SCSI connectors, which are designed to be used in computer and peripherals, such as scanners and CD-ROM drives, where high speed data transmission is required. It is PCIe x16 compliant to support high-speed data transmission. The 91601-313 connector provides lower contact resistance and uncompromising quality for use in commercial and military applications. It is suitable for industrial applications because it is designed with high reliability and ruggedness for both environmentally sensitive and harsh environments as well as fast-changing operating conditions.

The 91601-313 connector is also suitable for a variety of other applications such as medical and instrumentation. It is designed to meet the needs of the medical industry, where the connectors are placed into devices to provide a secured connection for power and medical diagnostics. Furthermore, it is used for industrial applications and precise instrument mechanisms, such as industrial controls, robotics, and process control instruments.

Working Principle of 91601-313 Connector

The 91601-313 is a single-piece, 24-way generic connector that supports high-speed signal transmission, up to 32 Gb/s. It has a coaxial contact design, which is composed of two concentric rings that interlock to form a continuous, low impedance contact path for ground and signal lines. This design ensures a good signal-to-noise ratio in order to avoid signal loss or distortion. Furthermore, the 91601-313 comes with an internal EMI/RFI shield for robust, noise-resistant system performance. The connector is also equipped with a latch that securely locks the connector when mated.

The 91601-313 has a floating housing design that enables it to accept a wider range of board thicknesses and better accommodates misalignment between mating boards. Moreover, the floating housing design ensures greater CFM (cubic feet per minute) rates to provide better air flow in a sealed environment. The connector\'s uniform blade/tongue contact design helps assure uniformly centered contacts for all mating connections.

The 91601-313 connector is designed to meet all relevant UL, CSA, and IEC standards. The electrical specification of the 91601-313 connector include contact resistance of less than 15 milliohms, current rating of 2.8A and dielectric withstanding voltage of 500V. The mechanical specification includes a contact retention force of 35 N, operating temperature range of -55℃ to +105℃, and a mating and unmating characteristics of 10,000 cycles.

Conclusion

The 91601-313 connectors are mainly used in computers and peripherals for high speed data transmission purposes. With the coaxial contact design, internal EMI/RFI shield, floating housing design, uniform blade/tongue contact design, and various mechanical and electrical specifications, the 91601-313 connectors are suitable for a number of applications such as the medical industry, industrial controls, robotics, and process control instruments, and provides low contact resistance and uncompromising quality for a secured connection.
