DIN-048CSC-R1L-SH

Backplane Connectors - DIN 41612 generally refer to a range of connectors designed to link internal hardware components on cards. The DIN-048CSC-R1L-SH is an example of a peer-to-peer connectivity device which links discrete cards together, and is commonly used in applications including industrial automation, telecoms, robotics, and aviation.The design of the DIN-048CSC-R1L-SH is based on the original DIN 41612 specifications, in which the height of the connector is 48 mm, the contact spacing is 2mm, and the contact size is 1.27mm. The R1L-SH in particular refers to the type of contact, i.e. Right-Angled Tri-Male Insert with Solder Holes.In terms of the application field, the connector is primarily used in industrial automation and robotics, where it can link a variety of cards together which may have different interfaces including EDAC (aka the Eurocard Standard), SCSI (Small Computer System Interface), or even IDC (Insulation Displacement Connectors). It is also commonly used in cables for transferring data between internal and external systems.Notably, DIN 41612 connectors are multi-pole connectors, with a maximum number of poles of 64, which offers flexibility for users in terms of the number of discrete cards that can be connected. Furthermore, the modular design of the connectors reduces the amount of wiring and the cost of the final system.Moreover, the DIN-048CSC-R1L-SH uses soldering technology, which is stronger than spring-loaded contacts and therefore ensures a stronger connection between the discrete cards. It also allows for consistent signal contact, even in vibration-prone applications, such as aerospace.In terms of working principle, the connection principle of the DIN-048CSC-R1L-SH relies on the use of two contact systems, i.e. an insulation and a conductive system. The contact systems are coupled using an elastomeric membrane, which has a series of small holes that connect the two contact systems. The elastomeric membrane presses against the contact surfaces of the cards when the connector is inserted, thus ensuring a stable contact.Furthermore, the smaller contact spacing (2 mm) of the DIN-048CSC-R1L-SH makes it more suitable for higher speed applications. The smaller contact spacing means that the signal is transferred at a higher rate and does not have to travel as far within the connector, meaning that it can reach its destination faster.Overall, the DIN-048CSC-R1L-SH connector is a highly reliable and cost-effective solution for linking discrete cards, particularly in industrial automation, telecoms and robotics. Its modular design reduces the amount of wiring and cost, whilst its use of soldering technology ensures a secure connection between the contacts and allows for consistent signal contact, even in vibration-prone settings.
