Rectangular Connectors are widely used in all kinds of electronic devices. Among them, Headers, Male Pins are the most commonly used rectangular elements used in circuit boards. They are widely used for connecting two ends of an electrical circuit. In this article, we will take the model number MTMM-102-08-SM-D-240-001 as an example to introduce its application field and working principle.

Application Field of MTMM-102-08-SM-D-240-001

The MTMM-102-08-SM-D-240-001 is a 2 mm pin header with 8 pins, in both single or double row configuration. It is a widely used type of male pin header, with an array of applications. With its small size and low profile, this pin header is popularly used on small PCBs, where the circuit’s complexity and number of terminals is limited. This model is RoHS compliant, and the single row version meets UL94V-0 flammability rating.

It is widely used in personal electronics, such as smartphones, computers, and tablets. With its robust design, it is also suitable for installation in place which may be subjected to vibration, high temperatures or physical stress, such as in industrial automation equipment or onboard aircrafts. Additionally, it is suitable for matrices and high voltage circuits, with a wide range of voltage withstanding capacity.

Working Principle

The MTMM-102-08-SM-D-240-001 is a single row 8-pin male pin header. It is a very simple and convenient connector for making electrical connections between two points. It consists of a series of pins typically made from brass and arranged in two rows of 4 pins each. The pins are typically sheathed in a plastic casing to form a connector. The whole connector is soldered onto the PCB.

When a connector needs to be inserted into the male pin header, the pins at the end of the connecting cable is inserted into the 2 rows of 8 pin socket of the male pin header. As the pins of the cable insert, it will create an electrical connection between the two components. The connector is typically held in place with a locking mechanism or clip which prevents it from being accidentally pulled out.

When the electrical connection is not needed, the connector can easily be removed from the header by releasing the locking mechanism or clip, and pulling out the connector away from the header. Thus this male pin header allows a convenient and robust way to connect and disconnect various electrical components.
