MUSB-C511-00

The MUSB-C511-00 is a connector used mainly in the fields of USB, DVI and HDMI applications. The MUSB-C511-00 connector is a low profile 25-pin module that provides vital support for USB 2.0, DVI and HDMI technologies.

Design

The MUSB-C511-00 connector\'s distinct \'L\'-shaped design, only 38.2mm wide, offers a lower profile than typically found in USB, DVI and HDMI connectors. This allows easier access to and installation of a device with the connector, whilst its 9 pin rows increase flexibility in devices of varying size.

The MUSB-C511-00 is also designed with reduced crosstalk and EMC interference due to its internal design. The connector is rated to UL20276 with a current rating up to 1.5 Amps.

Application

The connector is widely used in consumer electronics production, including hard drive enclosures, docking stations, keyboards, printers, digital video interconnect (DVI) peripherals and mobile phones. The MUSB-C511-00 is also used in digital audio and video production, and in the commercial and production of medical technology.

The MUSB-C511-00 connector has also found uses in digital camera applications, due to its compact, low profile design. This means it can be easily installed within digital cameras, even those with small sizes. As well as this, the connector is ideal for applications with restricted board spaces.

Working Principle

The MUSB-C511-00 connector works by connecting a wide variety of USB, DVI and HDMI devices via a single connector. It does this by providing 25 pins which can be split into three sets. Depending on the set which is chosen, different devices can be connected using the signaling protocols of USB, DVI or HDMI.

The connector also differs from many of its contemporaries in the way in which it is controlled. The connector uses the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) to control the signaling across the connections. This allows for an intuitive and easy to use interface.

Conclusion

The MUSB-C511-00 connector is an invaluable addition to the USB, DVI and HDMI connection market. Its slim and easy to install design allows for its use in a wide variety of applications, ranging from consumer electronics to production and even digital photography. The connector’s use of SPI to control the signaling across its pins allows for easy and intuitive control of any device connected to the connector.
