M50-3101145P

The M50-3101145P is a family of rectangular connectors classified as Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets. The device has a multipin design offering a range of 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24-way socket housings with various termination types and features. It has a 0.5 mm symmetric pitch and 1.45 mm profile height for high-densities, and a wide temperature range of -55°C to +105°C for more extreme environmental conditions.

The M50-3101145P is perfectly suitable for a variety of industrial and automation applications. Specifically, it is ideal for Medical, Industrial Automation, and Telecommunications systems. It can also be used for wired computer networks, audio/video systems, and harsh environment robotics.

Manufactured using Phosphor Bronze, the M50-3101145P’s electrical and mechanical properties meet required standards of the Electronics Industries Alliance (EIA) and is RoSH compliant. The device can be used with cable assemblies, and direct soldered onto printed circuit boards. It has a durable cage-to-cage contact design with an extremely low signal failure rate. Additionally, it incorporates a unique locking mechanism to prevent unintentional disconnections. The lock feature is available both in female and male housing versions.

The M50-3101145P is equipped with a density-style termination to ensure secure contact retention, low contact resistance, and provide maximum efficiency for current conduction. The crimp or press-fit contact system ensures that maximum connection strength is achieved as well. The device utilizes a combination of PBT (Polybutylene terephthalate) and Cu alloy molding compound as insulation material.

The working principle of the M50-3101145P is straight forward. The device is installed onto printed circuit boards where the contact pins make contact with the corresponding patterns on the board and electrical connections are established. Once the contacts are made, they make a connection with the board to provide a stable and safe electrical connection for the device and power supplies.

The M50-3101145P is an excellent example of a modern rectangular connector that provides maximum efficiency, reliability, and long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance. It is an ideal choice for industrial and automation applications thanks to its unique locking mechanism and greater contact retention. The device provides an easy means to create a secure and safe connection for various electrical devices and power supplies.
