B15B-PH-SM4-TB(LF)(SN) Connectors, Interconnects

The B15B-PH-SM4-TB(LF)(SN) is a highly reliable rectangular connector that belongs to the Headers, Male Pins product category. It is designed for use as a cable-to-board connection and is typically used in the industrial, communication, computer, and automotive equipment sectors.

The B15B-PH-SM4-TB(LF)(SN) rectangular connector is composed of an exterior housing made of scratch and shock resistant thermoplastic, which is also corrosion-resistant and protects the internal parts. The housing also hosts an array of 4, 5, or 6 ultra-precision metal contacts which are precision formed. This type of triangular wavy contact design also ensures long life and secure contact. Moreover, the contact is appropriate for lower current applications and features an anti-overheating connection technology.

The soldering method can be through hole, soldering to a PC board, or soldering to an IC. Compatible tools include point contact soldering irons, wave soldering irons, and robot mounted soldering irons. The overall dimensions for the B15B-PH-SM4-TB(LF)(SN) connector are: Length (L) 15mm, Width (W) 8mm, Height (H) 8mm, and Pitch (P) 4mm. The rated current is 1A, and the rated voltage is 60V AC. The temperature range is between -35°C and +105°C.

The operating principle of the B15B-PH-SM4-TB(LF)(SN) rectangular connector involves the use of two metal portions that are responsible for connecting electrical current. A pin is inserted into a hole on the device, acting as the male part, while the female part of the connection remains on the board itself. The contact points of each part are what actually carry the electricity. Heat from the connection can be transferred through joints using thermal paste, thermal pads, or thermal tape in order to avoid overheating. This type of connector is self-cleaning, meaning that when the two parts are disconnected, any residue on the contacts is removed. This ensures reliable electrical contacts even after repeated connections and disconnections.

The B15B-PH-SM4-TB(LF)(SN) connector is a very reliable and durable solution for many different applications and benefits from excellent compatibility with other connectors, as well as efficient heat generation management.
