Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

SQW-110-01-F-D-VS-LC-K application field and working principle

Rectangular connectors are used to mechanically link two or more circuit boards and allow electrical signals to pass through. A particular type of rectangular connector is the SQW-110-01-F-D-VS-LC-K, which is designed for high-density applications requiring tight spacing and high current carrying capabilities. It is commonly used in multimedia, instrumentation and broadcast applications.

The SQW-110-01-F-D-VS-LC-K rectangular connector features two-piece headers and receptacles to facilitate low-profile mating. The headers are made from a rigid, high-temperature thermoplastic and incorporate two conductive shells, a positive lock latch, three positive locking colors, and multiple standoff heights to accommodate various mounting schemes. The receptacles are designed to provide maximum retention force and feature an adjustable three-point contact system that is compatible with a wide variety of mating contacts.

The SQW-110-01-F-D-VS-LC-K connector system works in a simple and reliable manner. The contact system used in the receptacles is based on three points that provide maximum contact force. Contacts are made between the two shells, both internally and externally, to create an electrical circuit. A pair of latch lugs on the receptacle housing ensure correct and positive mating.

The SQW-110-01-F-D-VS-LC-K rectangular connectors also feature built-in strain reliefs that protect the contact system from damage due to flexing, along with a built-in adapter that prevents over-mating of the connector halves. This adapter also allows for plugging and unplugging without tools.

The SQW-110-01-F-D-VS-LC-K connector system is widely used in multimedia, instrumentation, and broadcast applications. It provides a reliable and cost-effective connection option that is suitable for high-density applications with tight spacing and high current carrying capabilities.
