CWN-522-26-0021

Rectangular Connectors – Headers, Male Pins are used in a wide range of industries and applications. An example of one is the CWN-522-26-0021, a two-row male header for use in electrical and electronic applications. In this article, we’ll provide a brief overview of the CWN-522-26-0021 application field and working principle.The CWN-522-26-0021 is a two row male header with an operating temperature of +105°C. It has a total of 58 pins divided into two rows of 29 pins each, has a current rating of 6Amp and a current rating per pin of 2.5A. The height of the header is 1.45mm and the 0.8mm square pins are arranged in a 2mm pitch. The header is made of UL rated 94V-0 thermoplastic and has gold plated contacts.The CWN-522-26-0021 is suitable for use in a variety of applications, particularly where a low-profile header with a high current capacity is needed. These include PCBs, robotics, industrial control systems, automatic data processing and power-related control equipment. The header offers outstanding performance in high-frequency applications due to its low capacitance and inductance.The CWN-522-26-0021 working principle is based on electrical resistance. When power is applied to the two rows of pins, electrons flow through the contact materials, generating heat and transferring energy. In order for the connections to be made, the contacts must be compressed until all contact surfaces are firmly touching, with the resistance of the connection stable and within recommenced limits.The header should be installed in a way that minimizes the risk of mechanical stresses on the pins. To protect against electro-static discharges, it is important to take necessary Anti-Static and Static Discharge (ESD) precautions.Overall, the CWN-522-26-0021 is an ideal choice for a wide range of applications, offering high-reliability connections and superior performance in high-frequency applications.
