The 95736-406LF is a 40-pin, low profile, 0.006" square pin header, right angle, vertical-mount connector that is a part of the larger 95736 series. Developed by Molex Connector Corporation, the 95736-406LF is a versatile solution for a wide range of applications, including automotive, consumer electronics, and medical equipment.

Applications and Benefits

The 95736-406LF connector is designed for blind mating applications with its alignment keys providing reliable connection and automated terminals providing robust contact retention. The plastic housing material has an operating temperature range of -55°C to +105°C and is designed to offer superior resistance to shock, vibration, and environmental contaminants. Its low profile design makes it easy to use in a variety of applications, with a maximum board-to-board pitch of 0.100". It features an Environmental Barrier Material (EBM) performance feature ideal for high-speed data transmission applications.

Working Principle

The 95736-406LF connectors feature dual-press fit termination technology for reliable long term contact retention. Its machined pins are plated with gold or palladium, and the pin is coded so connections are secure and reliable. The board-to-board mating orientation is vertical, while the board and connector orientation is right-angle. The connector incorporates contact alignment only at mating, eliminating the need for expensive tooling.

The contact area of the 95736-406LF utilizes a two-part terminal with an automatic clamping feature, providing reliable and robust contact retention from mating and unmating. The terminals are fully off-loaded from the insulator via a pair of mated beams, eliminating point-contact and ensuring a low Contact Resistance. The improved mating and unmating features enable the 95736-406LF to be used in a wider range of applications, including high-speed, automotive, and medical.

Conclusion

The 95736-406LF is a 40-pin, low profile, 0.006" square pin header, right angle, vertical-mount connector that is a part of the larger 95736 series. Low profile and robust contact retention make it ideal for demanding industrial and automotive applications. It features an Environmental Barrier Material (EBM) performance feature ideal for high-speed data transmission, and dual-press fit termination technology with gold or palladium plating for reliable long term contact retention.
