M3WWK-2640K

Rectangular Cable Assemblies include a wide variety of interrelated products. One such product, the M3WWK-2640K, is a key component of many technological applications. The M3WWK-2640K is a highly-specialized connector series designed for use in a wide array of electronic configurations and set-ups. This connector series is highly cost-effective, multi-pin rectangular cable assembly, designed for use with specific wire-to-board, and board-to-board applications.

Product Overview

The M3WWK-2640K Rectangular Cable Assembly is a low profile design developed by the engineering team at Amphenol. It consists of a unique and flexible cable connecting two boards or devices. The connector function of the M3WWK-2640K allows it to serve as a static connector, enabling various signal lines to pass between the two conjoined boards. It also has a keyed mating sequence and robust housing that can be securely tightened onto those boards.

Application Field

The M3WWK-2640K Rectangular Cable Assembly is ideal for automotive, consumer electronics, healthcare, defense, and aerospace applications. Applications which require high power, low profile design, flexibility, easy mounting, and small size are particularly suited for this product. An example application would be a vehicle\'s engine control unit, or ECU. The unique properties of this connector series allows it to be used to pass computer diagnostics and functional signals between the engine and the ECU.

Working Principle

The operation of the M3WWK-2640K is based on the principles of a single and multi-pin rectangular cable assembly. A rectangular cable assembly consists of an individual cable that passes between two electronic components, and usually has multiple parallel conductors. The M3WWK-2640K works by connecting two elements or boards with cables of successively higher signal density. It does this by designing the connector housing to securely link the two elements with keyed mating. This helps to ensure that signals can be reliably and accurately transferred and received.

Installation

The M3WWK-2640K Rectangular Cable Assembly can be easily installed and used as part of a specific application. To install it, the first step is to select the correct board-to-board or wire-to-board connectors. Next, the special connectors must be assembled and attached to the boards in question. After that, the appropriate cables are inserted into the connectors and the cable assembly is attached via the keyed mating sequence. The entire process typically takes between 10 and 20 minutes.

Conclusion

The M3WWK-2640K is a versatile and cost-effective rectangular cable assembly that can be used in a variety of applications and configurations. Thanks to its unique design, it can be used to successfully transfer signals between two boards or elements with ease. Moreover, the installation process is simple and straightforward, making it a great choice for many applications.
