D-Sub Connectors are connecting devices most commonly used to provide reliable electronic connections between two components, using pins or terminals connected to a female port. One of the most common and widely used D-Sub connectors is the FCC17A15PC400. The following discusses the application field and working principle of this particular connector.

Application Field

The FCC17A15PC400 connector is an IDC (insulation displacement contact) D-Sub connector. It is primarily used for connecting internal or external cables, tape drives, disk drives, and other peripherals. This type of connector is commonly used in audio/visual applications, industrial electronics, networking, and medical equipment.

The FCC17A15PC400 has two versions: machined-contact (MC) and stamped-contact (SC). The MC version is made with metal contacts and is suited for high-power supply, as it can transmit high current and voltages. The SC version provides a more cost-effective connection and is primarily used in light-duty applications.

Working Principle

The FCC17A15PC400 is a “pin-in-socket” connective device. The formal name for this type of connector is “D-Subminiature Connector”. It consists of a female port that accepts pins or terminals, which are connected to the female port by an insulation displacement contact method. This method involves inserting the pins into the female port and then gently pressing down both the pins and the port, which causes the insulation on the pins to be displaced and thus creating an electrical connection between the pins and the port.

The key to the accuracy of this connection is the design of the “ambient” — the wall that separates the surface of the male pin from the female port. On the FCC17A15PC400, the ambient is designed to allow the pins to properly align with the female posts, thus ensuring a flawless, contact-free connection.

In order to ensure maximum contact reliability, the FCC17A15PC400 also features strain relief for protecting the pins and assuring that the connection is maintained. The strain relief provides a means for flexibly connecting cables and wires, without putting excessive strain on the pins.

Finally, the FCC17A15PC400 also offers insulation displacement features, which are designed to protect the integrity of the connection. This feature helps ensure that the pins will remain firmly connected to the female port, even when the cable is exposed to vibrations or other environmental factors.

The FCC17A15PC400 D-Sub connector is an ideal choice for situations where a reliable and cost-effective connection solution is required. With its high-quality components, strain relief and insulation displacement features, it is an ideal choice for connecting audio/visual applications, industrial electronics, networking, and medical equipment.
