961228-5900-AR-PT

The 961228-5900-AR-PT range of rectangular connectors is designed for applications in which a reliable electrical connection needs to be made without the use of solder. These headers and male pins are designed to provide seamless electrical connections which can be easily removed or replaced when necessary, making them an ideal choice for the vehicles, appliances, communications equipment, and consumer electronics which they are used in.

Design and Features

The 961228-5900-AR-PT headers and male pins feature a unique design which allows the component to be securely fastened in place without the use of tools. The pins themselves are a 2 row 50 pin design with both female and male gender for each pin, and are 1.0mm thick. The housing of the connectors is designed from a highly durable polymer material making it strong enough to withstand temperatures up to 155C.

The 961228-5900-AR-PT header and male pin components are designed with a unique side-locking mechanism which ensures that the components stay connected and that accidental disconnects or shorting out of the wires is minimized. The pins and headers are design for easy insertion and removal from PCBs, making them a great choice for applications requiring maintenance or servicing, or for situations where it is impossible to solder the connection in place.

Application Field and Working Principle

The primary application field for the 961228-5900-AR-PT headers and male pins is the automotive industry, where the durability and reliable connection of the components is essential. The connectors are also used in consumer electronics, communications equipment, and in industrial applications.

The working principle behind the 961228-5900-AR-PT headers and male pins is simple; the contact pins are inserted into the holes in the PCB, and the housing is clipped into place to hold them securely. The connection is then held together through the mechanical locking mechanism, and the electrical connection is made when the contact pins come into contact with the traces on the PCB. This ensures a reliable and sturdy connection without the worry of a break or short.

Summary

The 961228-5900-AR-PT rectangular connectors are designed for applications requiring a reliable electrical connection without the need to solder. These headers and male pins are designed with a mechanical locking mechanism and a highly durable polymer housing which makes them ideal for automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics applications. The simple insertion and removal from the PCBs makes them an excellent choice when servicing or replacement of components is necessary.
