Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

Connectors are essential components that are used to join two or more electrical conductors. They can come in various shapes, sizes and styles to fit a broad range of applications. One of the most commonly used connectors, and also one of the most versatile, is the NPTC072KFMP-RC.

Application Field

The NPTC072KFMP-RC is a rectangular connector from FCI’s header product family. It is compact, measuring 0.335 inches by 0.295 inches, and it features a contact density of 7.50mm. It can be mated with various other rectangular connectors, including the plastic rectangular connectors, headers, receptacles, and female sockets. The availability of a range of mating parts makes this connector especially suitable for use with consumer electronics, including laptops and tablets. In addition, the NPTC072KFMP-RC is approved by UL, making it suitable for use in industrial applications, as well.

Working Principle

The specific construction of the NPTC072KFMP-RC allows the connector to be easily mated and unmated without much effort or skill. The connector is designed with two sets of contacts, each with 7.50mm pitch and a keyed mating function to ensure secure connection upon engagement. The key is designed to penetrate the mating connector, preventing rotation in the x- or y-axis. This ensures the two connectors are perfectly aligned when they are mated and thus provides a secure electrical connection. Additionally, the connector features a set of locking retainer clips which must be manually disengaged when the two connectors are to be mated. This clip holds the two sets of contacts in place, preventing them from coming out when the two connectors are disconnected.

The NPTC072KFMP-RC also features a floating contact, which is present inside the connector itself and runs across the entire contact area. This contact increases contact reliability and ensures that all the contacts make good electrical contact with their mating counterpart. The floating contact is designed to make up for any inconsistencies or non-uniformities in the contact area that may be caused due to manufacturing, assembly, or environmental factors.

Conclusion

The NPTC072KFMP-RC is an incredibly versatile connector. It is capable of being mated with a range of other rectangular connectors, is approved by UL for use in a variety of industrial applications, and features a keyed mating mechanism as well as a floating contact to ensure reliable electrical connection. The ease with which this connector can be used makes it ideal for electronic applications in both commercial and industrial settings.
