Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins, or simply headers, are versatile and reliable electrical components used in a variety of applications. These components are designed to provide efficient and reliable connectivity between two devices or circuits. The most common types of rectangular connectors are Male Pin Headers, which feature a series of male pins that provide connection points between two devices or circuits. The pins are generally copper or brass and are covered with an insulation or other protective material.

Types of Rectangular Connectors

Rectangular connectors are available in several variations, including standard or custom pinout configurations, various pin lengths, materials, and pin widths. Pin headers come in single, dual, or multiple rows to accommodate various design needs. Single row pin headers feature 1-9 pins, while dual row pin headers can have up to 50 pins or more. The most common type of pin header is the 2.54 mm pitch, which means the spacing between each pin is 2.54 mm (0.1 inches).

Application Fields

Rectangular connectors are used in a wide variety of applications, including computer boards, peripherals, displays, communication systems, industrial controls, instrumentation, medical and surveillance systems, automotive industry, and more. The primary reason for the widespread use of these connectors is because they provide reliable and efficient connection between two electrical devices or circuits. Pin headers are most commonly used on circuit boards where they provide numerous connection points for other components or systems. Additionally, these headers are also used for routing signals between electronic components or systems.

Working Principle

Male pin headers are designed for pressure-fit connection between two components or devices. The connection is made by inserting the male pins into female connectors on the circuit board. This connection is known as a press-fit or friction-fit. The pressure of the insertion causes the pins to firmly engage the female connectors, providing a secure connection that cannot be easily loosened or disconnected. This type of connection is widely used in many applications, as it provides reliable connectivity and is less prone to damage.

Advantages

Rectangular connectors are widely used and preferred due to their numerous advantages. One of the primary benefits of a pin header is that it is highly reliable and reliable. Pin headers are also designed to withstand vibrations, shocks, and extreme temperatures, which makes them suitable for a variety of applications. They are also typically smaller and lighter in weight, making them suitable for many applications where space and/or weight considerations are important. Additionally, these connectors can be modified to fit specific applications, such as custom pinarrays, etc, and they can be easily replaced if necessary.
