L17DM53742

The L17DM53742 is a D-shaped connector and contact, manufactured by RS Pro. The L17DM53742 D-shaped series is a family of specific-use connecting devices primarily designed for circuit board applications, providing a simple, but secure connection to printed circuits. It is capable of transferring digital or analog signals to various types of boards, allowing for a wide variety of functions in various electronic systems.

The L17DM53742 is designed for use in high-density circuit board applications, as it has a very small form factor with a minimum mounting hole diameter of 0.074″, making it well suited for use in restricted board spaces. The L17DM53742 provides a strong and reliable connection between the connector and the contact pad, ensuring a secure fit. It also allows for easy connector insertion and extraction, due to its spring loaded terminals.

The L17DM53742 consists of two parts, the connector and the contact. The connector body is made from a sturdy plastic material. It is 17mm in length, and 5mm in width, which makes it well suited for applications with limited space. The connector has snap-in lugs, which allow it to securely hold the contact in place, without the need for any type of fastener. The contact pad is made from phosphor bronze, which gives it excellent electrical conductivity. The contact is also designed not to vibrate, so that the connector does not become loose over time.

The working principle of the L17DM53742 is simple. When the connector is inserted into the contact pad, electrical signals are transferred from one board to the other. The contact pad is designed to provide a consistently accurate connection, and to maintain the connection even when subjected to vibrations. The contact is also designed to allow for quick and easy insertion and extraction of the connector, which helps to ensure that the connection remains stable and secure.

The L17DM53742 is a well-designed, reliable and durable connector, which is ideal for use in high-density circuit board applications. It offers a secure and stable connection between boards, making it perfect for transferring digital or analog signals. It is also well suited for applications which require limited space, due to its small form factor and snap-in lugs.
