HMTSW-205-08-F-D-237

The HMTSW-205-08-F-D-237 is a two-row, right angle, surface mount, female pin header interconnect. This rectangular connector is often used in industrial, computer, consumer, automotive, and medical applications. This interconnect is constructed with a housing made of polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) and two sets of staggered 8 pins with a 2.54 mm pitch. The insulation displacement contact (IDC) design helps to reduce metal parts, mating force, and connection time, making it a time and cost-efficient interconnect for various markets.

Applications

HMTSW-205-08-F-D-237 connectors are mainly used as a low-cost and cost-effective solution for communication-related applications. A few examples of applications include: telephone systems, medical monitoring devices, data communication and serial communication systems, consumer electronics, gaming systems, automotive applications, computers and laptop systems, audio/visual equipment, and more. This rectangular connector is also commonly used to connect and support power, data, and coaxial cables in industrial and consumer electronics for extra reliability and protection.

Working Principle

The working principle of the HMTSW-205-08-F-D-237 interconnect is grounded by a two-row design, designed to support 8 pins with a 2.54mm pitch. The housing is made of thermoplastic and has a compact, low profile design to fit in tight spaces, as well as visible inspection points for easy maintenance. Each row is arranged in an offset design so that the pins make contact simultaneously in a single direction, ensuring an accurate and reliable connection. The IDC design makes it easier to connect and disconnect, as well as providing a secure and low-cost solution for secure connections. This product is often used in signal, power, and low voltage applications due to its high flexibility and a wide range of operating temperature range between -40° C to +105° C.

The HMTSW-205-08-F-D-237 interconnect is thus suitable for any application where a reliable and low profile connection is required. The offset design with the IDC contact and the low profile contact housing make it ideal for low voltage and low power applications. The product has a wide temperature range and is available with both UL94-V0 and UL94-V1 housings. With its compact design, high quality product performance, and reliable connections, this product is a dependable solution for almost any application.
