Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins

Rectangular connectors are a type of electrical connector typically used to provide a mechanical and electrical connection between two or more cables, wires or printed circuit boards (PCBs). They are often used to link incoming and outgoing signals, devices and components within a circuit. Headers are the male component of the connector and play an important role in providing high-density connections. LTMM-112-02-SM-D-LC rectangular connectors are used mainly in telecommunications, process technology and telecommunications systems, and have a wide range of applications.

Types of Connectors

Rectangular connectors are available in a variety of configurations to meet specific design requirements, including male and female connectors, straight and right angle connectors, and various pin counts. These connectors also come in different shapes and sizes, such as circular, rectangular, flat and board-to-board connectors.

LTMM-112-02-SM-D-LC connectors have two rows of two male pins spaced CAB 130 with a typical mating cycle of 20 cycles, and a contact surface of 44.25 square mm.

Application Field and Working Principle

LTMM-112-02-SM-D-LC rectangular connectors are typically used in telecom, process control, entertainment, gaming, computer networking, and security systems, among others. They are designed for reliable and safe connections in harsh environments, and feature shielding to protect against data interference and signal loss. In addition, these connectors offer superior performance and are designed to handle higher current and voltage levels.

The working principle of LTMM-112-02-SM-D-LC rectangular connectors is based on the fact that when two mating connectors are connected, a contact is established between the two conductive parts. This contact then transfers an electrical current from one part to the other. The contact resistance is closely monitored to ensure that it is within an acceptable range, as too high a resistance can cause heating and arcing, leading to an unreliable connection.

Advantages and Disadvantages

The main advantage of LTMM-112-02-SM-D-LC rectangular connectors is their small size and high density. This allows them to be used in limited space applications where there is not enough room for larger connectors. They also provide better contact reliability than other connector types, and are low-cost and easy to install. Furthermore, the mating and un-mating cycles are shorter, making them more reliable.

One of the main disadvantages of LTMM-112-02-SM-D-LC rectangular connectors is that they are not as durable as other types of connectors. They are most suitable for infrequent use in indoor applications, and are not suitable for use in outdoor or harsher environments. In addition, they can suffer damage to their electrical contacts from shock and vibration.

Conclusion

LTMM-112-02-SM-D-LC rectangular connectors are a reliable and cost-effective solution for applications requiring a high-density connection. They are designed for use in indoor environments and are capable of providing long-lasting connections. However, they are not suitable for use in outdoor or harsher environments due to their electrical contact vulnerability to shock and vibration.
