M52-5114045

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets are form factor used for electrical connectors, and among them, M52-5114045 stands for one of the most widely used. It is also called a 5.2mm standard grid high-density array connector. It is typically used in a variety of applications including computer motherboards, hard drives, expansion cards, server backplanes, and cell phones. This type of connector is also popular in the industrial automation and instrumentation fields.

The M52-5114045 connector is made of a durable plastic body with metal contacts; the connectors are rated to withstand currents of up to 5 amps. It has a male / female mating configuration and can be secured with screws. The male and female halves of the connector are keyed so that they can only be mated in the correct orientation. The male portion consists of a number of gold-plated pins (known as the \'male pins\') spaced at an even pitch, while the female half consists of a number of matching female contacts (known as \'female sockets\' or \'female receptacles\') spaced at the same pitch.

The M52-5114045 connector is designed to provide a reliable connection between devices in a variety of applications. For instance, it can be used to connect processor components to memory chips or to connect multiple expansion cards in a computer system. It is also used to connect peripheral devices to computers, including external hard drives, optical drives, and Ethernet adapters. Furthermore, the connector can be used for connecting components in medical equipment, industrial controllers, and communication systems.

The working principle behind the M52-5114045 connector is simple; it uses metal conductors to connect two surfaces. The metal pins on one side make contact with the female sockets on the other side, creating an electrical connection. The pins are arranged in a linear fashion so that the contact points remain consistent when the two halves of the connector are mated, thus ensuring a secure and reliable connection. The contact surfaces are usually made of gold or another metal, such as silver or nickel, which helps to reduce the possibility of corrosion.

The M52-5114045 connector is an extremely reliable and useful tool for connecting electrical components. It is versatile and can be used in a wide array of applications and products. Furthermore, its small size makes it well suited for applications where space is a priority. With its reliable conductive characteristics and ease of use, the M52-5114045 connector is an excellent choice for many electrical projects.
