STMM-118-01-G-D

The STMM-118-01-G-D is a rectangular connector header that is used in a range of applications. It is manufactured by SAMTEC, a leading manufacturer of precision connectors for the telecommunications, industrial, automotive, medical, and other industries. The STMM-118-01-G-D is an 8-pin, male pin connector header. It has a 2mm pitch and 8mm mounting height. It is designed to be used with a wide range of high-performance signal interfaces, as well as digital and analog signals.

The STMM-118-01-G-D has a low insertion force and high retention force, for easy and reliable mating. It is constructed of tin-plated copper and has a high heat and vibration resistance. The pins come with standard pull-up and push-down locking mechanisms. The 8-pin connector is designed to provide secure, reliable connections for data and power. It is well-suited for applications requiring medium-pin-count connections. The connector is available in both standard and custom configurations.

The STMM-118-01-G-D is designed for use in systems where it can be mounted on a printed circuit board, or plugged into a mating connector. It is used in a variety of applications, including industrial control systems, medical instruments, vehicle telematics, LED lighting, telecommunications equipment, consumer electronics, and other applications.

The working principle of the STMM-118-01-G-D is fairly straightforward. When two mating connectors are properly aligned, the pins of the connector are inserted into the mating connector. Each pin has an internal locking mechanism to keep it securely in place. This locking mechanism consists of a spring-loaded pin, a cam, and a nylon interface sleeve. When the pins are connected, the spring-loaded pin slides to the recess in the mating connector, and the cam is pushed into the connector.

The cam locks into place and holds the pins securely against the connecotor\'s inner wall, preventing accidental disconnection. The nylon interface sleeve provides strain relief and protects the pins from excessive flexing and vibration. This locking mechanism ensures a secure and reliable electrical connection.

The STMM-118-01-G-D is a versatile connector header that can be used in a variety of applications. It is designed to provide reliable connections for data and power, with low insertion force and high retention force. It is well-suited for applications requiring medium-pin-count connections. The connector is available in both standard and custom configurations.
