BCS-145-L-D-HE-058

BCS-145-L-D-HE-058 connectors belong to the family of rectangular connectors, which includes headers, receptacles, and female sockets. As the name implies, these are electrical connectors that provide connection for electrical and electronic components. They are available in various configurations, sizes, and materials. BCS-145-L-D-HE-058 is a surface mounted, right angle, signal and power, 5.08 mm pitch, 14 pin connector.

BCS-145-L-D-HE-058 connectors are commonly used in a variety of applications. They are often found in the automotive industry, mainly in ECUs (Electronic Control Units). Additionally, they are popular in the medical, industrial, and communications equipment markets. These connectors are also used in consumer electronics such as essential medical equipment, hand-held medical and test instruments, communications and networking systems, computer peripherals, consumer audio/video equipment, cell phone accessories, and gaming consoles.

The working principle of the BCS-145-L-D-HE-058 connector comprises of two main components: an insulated terminal, and a shielded case. The rugged terminal is constructed from a precision-machined metal substrate and a high temperature plastic insulator. The terminal contacts are plated with either gold or tin for maximum corrosion resistance and reliable connection. The shielded case is molded from black ABS, and it serves to block any EMI and RFI interference. The internal shielding also provides a tight strain relief to further protect the integrity of the contacts.

BCS-145-L-D-HE-058 connectors feature a contactless design that allows for faster connection times than soldered contacts. The contacts are designed to accept standard 0.02 inch square pin contacts. The contact retention force is rated at 5.69 N (57.48 lbf), with contact resistance of 4 milliohms max. Its current rating is 3A, with a voltage rating of 250V. The connector is UL listed and RoHS compliant, and it is rated to IP65 (dustproof) and IP67 (waterproof).

In conclusion, BCS-145-L-D-HE-058 is an ideal connector for a wide range of applications such as automotive, medical, industrial, and communications equipment. The contactless design gives it a faster connection time and higher resistance to corrosion. Its rugged design ensures reliable connection as well as EMI/RFI interference protection. Additionally, its superior current rating and voltage rating add an extra layer of safety and reliability.
