Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

Rectangular connectors are a family of electrical and electronic components that provide power, signal, and ground connections between two or more devices. The most common member of this family is the RJ45 connector, commonly associated with Ethernet networks. Its popularity and ubiquity has created a wide variety of visual styles and sizes that now commonly feature insulation displacement contact (ICD) technology.The predominance of RJ45 connectors has caused most people to know little else about this type of connector, but in reality there is an expansive array of connector types and even more variations of each type. This is especially true of the M20-7842542 variant of a rectangular connector. This section discusses the key characteristics and advantages of the M20-7842542, identifying its most suitable applications and outlining the principles of operation.

Design and Management of the M20-7842542

The M20-7842542 is a rectangular connector that is composed of a casing, and two or more terminals within the casing. It is designed for soldering to a printed circuit board (PCB). It features a highly efficient and reliable nominal current rating of 8 A, rated operating voltage of 120 V, a minimum mating temperature of -7°C and a maximum operating temperature of 105°C. It features an operating frequency up to 440 uHz, and a temperature coefficient of -50 ppm/°C. This design offers superior levels of durability, reliability, and stability, making it an ideal solution for demanding applications.

Application Fields

The M20-7842542 is typically employed in applications where signal routing is required directly to any part of a PCB. In these applications, it provides a high-current, low-profile connection. Common industries that the M20-7842542 is found in include medical, automotive, military/aerospace, consumer electronics, energy, and telecommunications, among others. The high efficiency, low profile design of the connector lends itself to use in almost any connected system where small spaces and low profile features are desired. Additionally, the connector is suitable for applications exposed to dust and water.

Working Principle

The M20-7842542 is a dual-terminal connector that provides power, signal, and ground between two different devices. The pin terminals are physically connected through a plastic shell. The compatibility of the connector allows for proper mating in an array of other compatible connectors. Electrical contact is achieved when the two pin terminals of the connector are inserted into the mating connector and are clamped together. This results in contact that is electrically, magnetically, and thermally connected. The M20-7842542 connector is designed to ensure a secure and reliable connection by utilizing a combination spring and thermal contact system. The spring contacts are used to provide a secure physical connection, while the thermal contacts enable an optimized electrical connection.

Conclusion

The M20-7842542 is a highly versatile rectangular connector designed to provide power, signal, and ground connections in many applications. Its highly efficient and reliable design allows it to be employed in the most demanding applications. The contact type is insulated displacement contact (IDC), which features a combination of thermal and spring contacts for a secure and reliable connection. The highly reliable design, coupled with its flexibility to be used in a variety of applications, ensure the M20-7842542 is the perfect choice for any situation.
