Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins

The D3440-6002-AR is a rectangular connector with headers and male pins. Rectangular connectors are widely used in a variety of applications due to their convenience, cost-effectiveness, and easy configuration. The D3440-6002-AR has a long service life because of its durable construction and reliable connections.

Application Field

The D3440-6002-AR connector can be used in a variety of applications, including telecommunications, consumer appliances, transportation, industrial automation, and medical devices. It is optimized for both digital and analog applications and can be used with cable assemblies. It can also be used as a voltage divider or a signal level compensator. The D3440-6002-AR is commonly used in telecom and computer systems, as well as in radio frequency (RF) applications in radar, navigation, and cellular communication.

Working Principle

The D3440-6002-AR employs a simple mechanism to establish and secure connections. Inside the connector, there are two layers of conductive male pins. The first layer of pins is a ground-point connection all the way down to the board, while the second layer of pins is a signal connection between the board and the cables. The pins are connected in an alternating fashion so that they create a secure fit. The pins are made of copper and are designed to ensure a tight fit and great electrical conductivity.

To further ensure a reliable connection, the D3440-6002-AR is also equipped with a contact force control. This feature allows for the amount of force applied to the pins during setup to be adjusted, preventing over-tightening or under-tightening of the pins. The contact force control also allows for a small amount of “give” between the connection area and the pins, which helps to reduce the strain on the pins, reducing wear over time.

Conclusion

The D3440-6002-AR is a reliable rectangular connector with headers and male pins designed to facilitate secure electrical connections. It can be used in a variety of applications and is optimized for both analog an digital use. Its contact force control ensures a secure fit and reduces strain on the pins, providing a long and reliable service life.
