TSW-101-23-L-D Application Field and Working Principle

TSW-101-23-L-D form a family of rectangular connectors which serve as a reliable, cost-effective, and versatile interconnection solution for a wide variety of applications. These connectors are also referred to as “headers” and “male pins”.

Description of TSW-101-23-L-D Connectors

TSW-101-23-L-D are characterized by a rectangular shape that measures 1.00” wide by 0.118” tall. They include twenty-three contacts arranged in a perpendicular sequence of 0.100” pitch. These connectors are fabricated using a two-piece construction, with the contacts attached to a plastic housing or insulation base. This plastic base is made from either LCP (in the TSW series) or Nylon 4/6 GV, and features an O-ring to provide a secure mating and unmating interface when inserted into a mating cavity.

Application of TSW-101-23-L-D Connectors

TSW-101-23-L-D connectors are predominantly used in industrial automation, telecommunications, and other related industries due to their versatility. These connectors are suitable for rugged, high-speed, and power-sensitive applications; thus, they are often used in harsh and challenging environments to interconnect components. Their versatility allows them to be used for a vast range of applications, ranging from analog signals to power supply. They can also be used to interconnect circuit boards, connectors, and LCD displays. Common markets for TSW-101-23-L-D connectors include automotive, rail and military, medical, and industrial automation.

Working Principle of TSW-101-23-L-D Connectors

TSW-101-23-L-D are typically mated to their mating receptacle (female connector) using an O-ring or friction lock. This provides a secure mechanical connection between the two connectors and prevents them from becoming disconnected. The contacts inside the connector utilize spring-loaded contacts that expand and grip onto the pins of the receptacle. The spring forces applied by the contacts provide the necessary electrical connection between the two connectors while also providing a reliable physical connection. The pins and/or contacts are also designed to be terminated or connected to a wire or circuit board, allowing the two devices to be electrically connected.

Conclusion

TSW-101-23-L-D connectors are a reliable and versatile interconnection solution for many different industries and applications. They offer a secure mechanical connection, a reliable electrical connection, and are suitable for a wide range of applications. Their design and construction make them an ideal solution for various industrial and consumer applications.
