FTS-148-02-F-DV

FTS-148-02-F-DV application field and working principle

The FTS-148-02-F-DV is a two row, 14-pin, surface mount, rectilinear connector for use in headers, male pins, and various other applications. This tiny connector is designed to provide electrical signal and power connections from the printed circuit board to the device mounted in a tight, compact package. It is ideal for use in a variety of high speed data and control applications which require a large number of pins in a small area. The FTS-148-02-F-DV has a wide range of features to counter mechanical wear and ensure secure connections to the circuit board.

To understand how the FTS-148-02-F-DV works, it helps to first understand the core components that make up the overall design. The key components of the FTS-148-02-F-DV connector are the two rows of contact pins, the contacts themselves, the external insulation, and the contact switch, or connector body.

The two rows of contact pins consist of permanent, spring-type contacts and snap-action contacts. The permanent contacts are designed to stay in place and provide an electrical connection between the circuit board and the device being connected. The spring-type contacts have a spring-loaded plunger that allows them to be compressed and released to make or break the electrical connection. The snap-action contacts provide a quick and reliable connection and disconnection of the electrical connection.

The contacts themselves are made of either gold or silver and come in various shapes and sizes. The gold contacts are typically used for higher voltages and power applications, while the silver contacts are better suited for low voltage and signal applications. The contacts are designed to fit into pre-drilled holes in the circuit board, and are then held in place by the external insulation. The insulation is designed to offer protection from electrical shocks and surrounding environmental conditions.

The contact switch, or connector body, is a spring-loaded, snap-action mechanism that controls the movement of the contact pins. The contact switch is designed to be able to switch between two positions, open and closed, depending on whether a connection needs to be made or broken. When the switch is in the closed position, the contacts are closed and electrical connection is made. When the switch is in the open position, the contacts are open and the connection is broken.

The FTS-148-02-F-DV is an ideal connector for a range of applications, such as automotive, medical, industrial, and consumer electronics. It is designed to provide reliable electrical connections in a compact, tight package. The tight design of the FTS-148-02-F-DV helps minimize emissions and noise interference, and the snap-action contacts provide a secure, consistent connection each time. The combination of these features means the FTS-148-02-F-DV is perfect for when multiple pins need to be connected in a tight space.
