M80-6151801

Rectangular connectors, or simply headers and receptacles, refer to a type of electrical connection that involves a larger two-piece assembly. The two pieces are referred to as a "header" piece and a "receptacle" piece. The header piece is typically mounted on the top of a circuit board, either soldered or with a press-fit, while the receptacle piece is usually attached to a cable system or other modular system needed for a larger assembly. Both male and female header types are available, as well as configurable pin and socket systems.M80-6151801 headers and receptacles are typically used in the circuit boards of electronic devices, such as computer systems, automotive audio systems, and consumer electronics products. These connectors feature a modular design and are highly customizable, which makes them ideal for a wide range of applications.The M80-6151801 rectangular connector consists of two main pieces: the header and the receptacle. The header piece is designed to mate with a surface-mount or thru-hole device on the circuit board, while the receptacle piece is designed to be connected to a cable system. The header and receptacle are designed to interlock, which allows them to form a secure and reliable connection in a wide range of environmental conditions.The M80-6151801 rectangular connector features an array of 18 female sockets that are evenly spaced in a 15 mm row-to-row pitch. The sockets can accommodate 18 pins in various configurations, and are typically used in high-density environments where space is limited. The connector also features a latch which ensures a reliable connection between the header and receptacle pieces. The latch helps to reduce the risk of the connector becoming loose or vibrating apart during use.The pins of the M80-6151801 connector are plated with a metal alloy, which helps to provide better electrical conductivity. In addition, the metal alloy helps to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge and electromagnetic interference. The plating also helps to improve the connector\'s corrosion resistance and ensures that it can be used in a wide range of environmental conditions.The working principle of the M80-6151801 rectangular connector is quite simple. When the header and receptacle pieces are mated together, the pins on the header make contact with the corresponding female sockets on the receptacle piece. The connection is secured by a latch, which helps to ensure a reliable connection between the two components. Overall, the M80-6151801 rectangular connector is an ideal choice for many applications due to its modular design, high quality materials, and customizable options. Its small size and ability to handle high-density environments make it one of the most popular options for many electronic products. This type of connector is typically used in electronic products such as consumer electronics, automotive audio systems, and computer systems.
