HMTSW-150-28-S-T-940

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins are widely used in a variety of industries including aerospace, computing, telecommunications, military and industrial automation. HMTSW-150-28-S-T-940 is one of the most popular male pinheaders in the market. This article will discuss its application field and working principle.

Application Field

HMTSW-150-28-S-T-940 is especially suited for use in high-density PCB designs. Its low-profile top and bottom mounting solutions enable easy and efficient board-level stacking, giving it the ability to operate without having to use extra components. HMTSW-150-28-S-T-940 can also be used as connectors for external devices, such as keyboards, mice, printers, and other peripheral devices. Moreover, it is widely used in industrial automation systems, robotics, medical devices, audio-visual systems and automotive applications.

Working Principle

HMTSW-150-28-S-T-940 rectangular connectors consist of two parts – headers and male pins. The header contains socket contacts which are placed in cut outs and are slotted at their innermost end. The pins contain black bronze alloy inserts which are designed to fit into the socket contacts. The headers of connectors are fixed on PCB. The male pins are inserted inside the headers and pressed in for good connection. The pins are soldered to the board using solder wires.

Both the headers and pins are rated to a maximum current and voltage, and the combined rating is of course lower than that of either the header or the pin alone. The HMTSW-150-28-S-T-940 has a maximum voltage rating of 160 Volts AC and a maximum current rating of 1.2 Amps. This makes it ideal for low and medium power applications.

Another key feature of HMTSW-150-28-S-T-940 is its ability to handle high frequency and digital signals. It is suitable for high speed applications with rates up to and beyond 3 Gb/s. This connector has superior shielding and grounding performance, making it suitable for applications where ground loops must be avoided.

Conclusion

HMTSW-150-28-S-T-940 rectangular connectors are suited for a wide range of applications, from external applications, such as keyboards and peripherals, to industrial and automotive applications. It has excellent shielding and grounding characteristics, making it suitable for high speed digital applications. With a maximum voltage rating of 160 Volts AC and a maximum current rating of 1.2 Amps, it is ideal for low and medium power applications.
