MDF7U-5P-2.54DSA(02)

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins

The MDF7U-5P-2.54DSA(02) is a header type of rectangular connecters. It is commonly used with flat ribbon cables that are fitted with 2.54 mm square pins, like the widely used IDC type. As compared with its counterparts, the MDF7U-5P-2.54DSA(02) makes less physical contact resistance, and therefore is better suited for applications with frequent vibrations, such as robotics.

Features

• Pin spacing of 2.54 mm and perforation of 5 pins.
• 15 u gold plating, 100 mating cycles.
• Right-angled pin layout for flat ribbon cables.
• High-temperature and fire-resistant plastic housing.
• Low resistance contact points to minimize crosstalk and line noise.

Application Field

The MDF7U-5P-2.54DSA(02) has a wide range of applications, such as connecting robotics and other electronic devices to a microcontroller. The connector has also proved popular for amateur robotics projects, as it is quite easy to use, with no crimping required.

The connector is also commonly used in data transmission and communication systems, as the small size and rigid construction makes it ideal for connecting flat ribbon cables. The low contact resistance also helps to minimize any line noise and even crosstalk physical interference.

Working Principle

The MDF7U-5P-2.54DSA(02) is made up of a pair of housing units, gold plated contact pins and insulation sheet. The contact pins are designed with a square shape, and the insulation sheet protects the contacts from interference. Each pair of pins is linked by the perforations to create a robust and durable connection.

In order to ensure a good connection and reliable data transmission, the connector needs to be properly secured. This is usually done by attaching the connector to the casing or housing of a device. To ensure an electrical connection, the connector should be firmly tightened.

Conclusion

The MDF7U-5P-2.54DSA(02) is a versatile connector that can be used for a variety of applications. Its small size, long lasting construction and low contact resistance makes it suitable for connecting robotics and other electronic devices. By properly securing the connector, reliable data transmission can be ensured and crosstalk interference can be minimized.
