Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins, generally refer to connectors that consist of one or more parallel rows of male header pins. 95278-801A10 is a typical example with dual row configuration, featured with 8+10AWG housing size, 1.27mm pitch, and 2.54mm mating pin.

95278-801A10 Application Field

95278-801A10 is especially designed for applications with extreme environmental conditions. The variety of the environmental performances are guaranteed by its high quality insulation materials, including high temperature thermoplastics and vinyl insulators, which makes the product suitable for a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

95278-801A10 is also one of the popular choices for high reliable industrial and consumer electronic applications such as computers, telecommunication systems, and data processing equipment, due to its insulation inserts combination structure, excellent electrical/mechanical performance and reliable connections.

95278-801A10 Working Principle

The 95278-801A10 is a standard rectangular connector. It has two parts, an insert and a receptacle. The insert is made up of several rows of pins that are arranged in a rectangular pattern. The pins are spaced at 1.27mm intervals and are typically made of a metal material such as stainless steel. The receptacle has two parts; a body that houses the pins and an insulator to hold them in place. An additional metal shield can be used to protect the pins from moisture, static electricity, and other environmental hazards.

To connect two components, the pins of the insert are fitted into the receptacle and securing it using a bayonet or screw mechanism. The pins are then soldered onto the PCB. The pins of the insert and the receptacle have mechanical and electrical contacts which ensure a secure connection. The pins can be connected using a crimp or solder connection. In addition, the contacts are rated to different current ratings. For example, 40A maximum current is supported by the 95278-801A10.

Conclusion

Overall, the 95278-801A10 is a great choice for a wide range of applications due to its versatile design. Its insulation materials, reliable connections, and wide range of current ratings make it a perfect choice for industrial and consumer electronic applications. It is also compatible with a variety of PCB designs, making it easy to design into new systems without needing significant re-design.
