929850-01-36-10

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets - come in various sizes and shapes, providing connectivity for a wide variety of electronics and other applications. 929850-01-36-10 is one such model, which is used widely in different areas.

Applications

929850-01-36-10 is a contact and terminal block connector designed mainly for connecting PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards) to create larger systems. It has 36-positions of connection for an equivalent amount of PCBs to be connected. This makes it particularly well-suited for applications requiring connection of many PCBs, such as computers, gaming consoles, servers, and industrial controllers. It is also widely used in industrial automation, robotics, and motor drives, due to its reliable performance and durability.

Aside from interconnection, 929850-01-36-10 is also used in medical and scientific devices, automotive electronics, and machinery applications such as fluid, gas, and air handling systems. It is commonly used to carry out device-level control and monitoring functions, as well as in applications transferring power and signals.

Working Principle

The 929850-01-36-10 connector includes a plastic body housing, individual contact retainers, and termination resistant contact modules. It is designed to be paired with the same or similar connectors so that polarized and keyed mating is possible. When paired it allows for connection between two or more PCBs without the danger of cross-talk or misalignment of the pins. It also has built-in EMI (electromagnetic interference) protection, preventing disruption of signals between PCs and other electronics.

The 929850-01-36-10 also features an insulation displacement terminal (IDT) to make the connection between the wires and the contacts easier and faster. It comes with a spring loaded contact feature that ensures a reliable contact when being plugged on to the mating connectors, as well as a test point for checking the continuity between the connected contacts. Finally, its double-row design allows for high-speed connections to be made, eliminating the need for extra signal lines.

Conclusion

The 929850-01-36-10 connector is a robust and reliable rectangular connector ideal for high-speed interfacing between PCBs. It is highly versatile, being used in a variety of applications, including computer systems, industrial automation, medical and scientific applications, automotive electronics, and machinery. Its features such as the ability to connect multiple PCBs, EMI protection, insulation displacement terminal (IDT), and double-row design all contribute to its popularity.
