SDL-102-TT-12

Rectangular Connectors such as the SDL-102-TT-12 are found in a wide range of applications. The nature of each application dictates the design and performance requirements as well as the variation in connectors. Therefore, it is important to be aware of the various applications and also their specific requirements when deciding what connector to use for a particular job.

The SDL-102-TT-12 is typically used in industrial control and automation applications, including robots, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), and other control systems. It is also suitable for military and aerospace applications due to its ability to withstand high levels of shock, vibration, mechanical wear, and electrical interference. This connector features connector housing, skirt, and contact inserts, along with tin-plated copper alloy contacts, which ensures a long life and dependable performance under harsh environments.

The SDL-102-TT-12 is a two-row, through-hole mounted, IDC-type connector and features a 2mm contact pitch. It is designed to provide a reliable and economical interconnection solution for board-to-board or cable-to-board applications. It is made of robust materials suitable for harsh environments, and offers a wide variety of compatible cable and contact arrangements. The connector design uses graduated pin heights to ensure uniformity of the connection and provides a secure mating force without the need for mechanical locking mechanisms.

The working principle of the SDL-102-TT-12 connector is quite simple. Contacts are inserted into a slot in the mating surface, which causes a ridgelike shape to form, creating a secure and reliable connection. The contacts can be soldered directly to the printed circuit board, or they can be terminated with special crimp connectors, which will provide a greater level of protection. Depending on the application, additional strain relief may also be necessary to ensure proper operation.

The SDL-102-TT-12 rectangular connector is a vital part of any industrial application, as it ensures a reliable and secure data transfer. Its distinct combination of features, including its rugged design and high performance capabilities, makes this connector an ideal choice for many demanding applications. Its compatibility with standard boards and connectors, as well as its wide variety of cable and contact arrangements, make it a highly sought after component across a wide range of applications.
