Working Principle

The PPTC221LGBN-RC is a low profile header connector that works by providing electrical connections. The product consists of a male connector with two rows of pins and a female receptacle with two contact holders. To establish a connection, the male connector is inserted into the female receptacle, which consists of two rows of pins. The two rows of pins come into contact with the two contact holders in the female receptacle. In order to ensure that the placement of the connector is correct, the polarizing clips on the contact holders slide along the mating receptacle before the connection is established. Once in place, the electrical connection is made and data can be transferred.
