Introduction

FX2-100P-1.27DS (71) is a specialized D-shaped connector widely used in data transmission and other related applications. This type of connector is usually referred to as “Centronics” due to its use in the old printer parallel port. It consists of two connectors, a female and a male, and can be used to connect two or more devices in a daisy chain configuration.

History

The history of the Centronics connector dates back to the early 1970s. It was originally developed by Centronics Data Corporation and was designed as an inexpensive, quick-connect solution for providing parallel data communications. It was first used in the Autollator 1800 datalogger, and was the precursor to the now-standard parallel port.

Types of Centronics Connectors

There are several types of Centronics connectors that have been developed over the years. The most common types are the FX2-100P-1.27DS (71) and the Mini-Centronics connector. The FX2-100P-1.27DS (71) is the most popular type of Centronics connector and is used in the majority of applications, while the Mini-Centronics is a smaller, more specialized connector used in some applications.

Application Field and Working Principle

The FX2-100P-1.27DS (71) connector is widely used in a variety of applications, such as computers, printers, scanners, cameras, and other data transmission applications. It is generally used for bidirectional communication and requires two connectors, one male and one female. The pins of the male connector are arranged in a row of eight pins in a straight line, while the female connector contains sixteen pins arranged in two rows of eight pins each. The pins of both connectors are 1.27mm in diameter.When the two connectors are connected, the eight pins of the male connector are mated with the eight pins of the female connector, forming a single connection. This connection is then used for bidirectional data transmission. Depending on the data being transmitted, some of the pins may be held in either the “low” or “high” state, while other pins can be used for clock synchronization.The most common type of data transmission through the Centronics connector is the Parallel interface. However, there are also other types of data transmission, such as Serial and Ethernet.

Conclusion

The FX2-100P-1.27DS (71) connector is a specialized D-shaped connector widely used in data transmission and other related applications. It is a great solution for providing quick and inexpensive connections between devices and is commonly used in computers, printers, scanners, cameras, and other data transmission applications. The pins of the male connector are arranged in a row of eight pins in a straight line, while the female connector contains sixteen pins arranged in two rows of eight pins each. The pins of both connectors are 1.27mm in diameter and when connected, are used for bidirectional data transmission.
