Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins

Rectangular connectors, also known as headers, male pins, or board-to-board connectors, are a type of electrical connector commonly used for making electrical connections. They are usually composed of two elements, a female component, which is generally mounted on a board and referred to as a “header”, and a male component or contact, which is referred to as a “male pin”.

Types of connectors

Headers come in various types and sizes. Generally speaking, there are two types of headers – “dual-row” and “single-row” – which are differentiated by the number of pins they have. The dual-row connectors typically have two rows of pins, while the single-row connectors typically have a single row. Connectors are available in both right-angle (vertical) and straight-through (horizontal) orientations. Additionally, they can be “dished” or “skirted”, which indicates the shape of the header.

Materials and Construction

Headers are typically constructed from zinc, copper, aluminum or plastic. The pins are typically composed of either brass or stainless steel. The choice of material for the headers/contacts depends on the application. For instance, aluminum headers are typically used for higher voltage applications, while plastic headers are better suited for lower voltage applications.

Modern Uses

The most common modern use for rectangular connectors is in the automotive industry, where they are used to form a reliable connection between two components, such as the engine and the chassis, or the battery and the control module. Additionally, headers are used as modular connectors in the telecom, computer and medical industries.

Application Fields and Working Principle

Rectangular connectors are used in a variety of application fields, such as electrical and electronic systems, medical devices, automotive industry, and telecommunications. The working principle of rectangular connectors is quite simple. The male pin is inserted into a female header, thereby creating a secure and reliable physical and electrical connection between the two components.

Advantages of Using Rectangular Connectors

The key advantages of using rectangular connectors are their reliability, low cost, light weight, and ease of assembly. Additionally, these connectors are highly versatile, and can be used in a wide range of applications. Furthermore, the modularity of these connectors allows for easy customization according to the specific requirements of the application.

Conclusion

Rectangular connectors, also known as headers, male pins, or board-to-board connectors, are a type of electrical connector commonly used for making electrical connections. They are used in a variety of application fields, and are characterized by their reliability, low cost, light weight, and ease of assembly. Rectangular connectors are easy to assemble, and offer great flexibility in customizing the connection according to specific application requirements.
