Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins, M80-5011042 application field and working principle

Rectangular connectors are a type of electrical connector which are commonly used in electrical and electronic products for making electrical connections between two or more circuitry on a device. Rectangular connectors are generally composed of a plug (male) side and a receptacle (female) side. The plug side has either male pins (male connectors) or female sockets (female connectors) extending out from it, while the receptacle side has either female pins (female connectors) or male sockets (male connectors).

The M80-5011042 is a rectangular connector of the male pin type. It consists of two parts; the plug section which has two male pins and the receptacle section which has two female pins. This connector is designed with a low profile body, making it small and lightweight for easy assembly and installation into small spaces. It also features an innovative power-lock system, which ensures a reliable connection between the pins and receptacle.

The M80-5011042 can be applied in a wide range of applications including consumer electronics, medical, industrial, automotive and marine equipment. In these applications, it’s commonly used as a connection point between two circuits or devices, typically for transferring power and/or data. It’s also frequently used when there is a need for a quick, simple, plug-and-play connection solution that doesn’t require any soldering.

Working Principle

The working principle of the M80-5011042 rectangular connector is fairly simple. When the plug section is inserted into the receptacle, the two male pins make contact with the two female pins, allowing an electrical connection to be made. The power-lock system then locks the plug section into place, ensuring a tight fit. Once the connection has been made, power and/or data can flow through the connector.

The M80-5011042 is also designed with a latching system, which helps ensure a secure connection between the two parts. The latching system works by locking the plug section into place when the plug is inserted into the receptacle. This helps prevent any accidental disconnections from occurring due to any movement of the cables or devices connected to the connector.

Advantages

The M80-5011042 rectangular connector offers several advantages over alternative solutions. Firstly, it has a low profile body, making it more suitable for use in tight spaces. The power-lock system also helps ensure a reliable connection with each use, while the latching system helps prevent accidental disconnections. Furthermore, it requires no soldering, making it ideal for quick and easy installation in applications where soldering is not an option.

Overall, the M80-5011042 is an excellent choice for applications where a secure, reliable, plug-and-play connection solution is required. Its small size, light weight, and innovative power-lock and latching systems make it a ideal for use in a wide range of applications.
