14 Pin FRC Male Box Header Connector Right Angle

Description

A 14-pin FRC (Flat Ribbon Cable) male box header connector in a right-angle configuration is a specific connector used primarily in electronics for connecting flat ribbon cables. Here’s a breakdown of its features and typical applications:

Specifications:

1. Type: Male box header connector.
2. Pin Count: 14 pins, which refers to the number of conductors or lines the connector can accommodate.
3. Configuration: Right-angle, meaning the connector is oriented to make connections perpendicular to the PCB or device on which it is mounted.
4. Pitch: The spacing between pins is typically standardized, usually 2.54mm (0.1 inches) or 1.27mm (0.05 inches) for compatibility with standard ribbon cables and PCB designs.

Key Features:

• Flat Ribbon Cable Compatibility: Designed to mate with flat ribbon cables, allowing for easy and secure connections in applications requiring multiple conductors.
• Right-Angle Design: This design is suitable for applications where space-saving and efficient PCB layout are important. It is often used in compact electronic devices or modules.
• Secure Connection: Provides a reliable and robust connection between the PCB and flat ribbon cable, suitable for applications requiring signal integrity and stability.
• Versatility: Used in various electronic devices, equipment, and industrial applications where flat ribbon cables are employed for data or signal transmission.

Typical Uses:

• Internal Connections: These are used inside electronic devices and equipment to connect PCBs or internal components with flat ribbon cables.
• Data Transfer: Facilitates data transfer between boards or modules within a device or system.
• Industrial Applications: Commonly found in industrial control systems, instrumentation, and automation equipment where reliable electrical connections are critical.
• Prototyping and Development: Essential for prototyping new electronic designs and testing circuits during the development phases.

Considerations:

• Pin Count: Ensure the connector has the correct pins to match your application requirements.
• Pitch and Compatibility: Verify the pitch (spacing between pins) matches that of your flat ribbon cable and PCB layout for proper alignment and connectivity.
• Mounting: Consider the mounting method (through-hole or surface mount) and ensure it matches your PCB design and assembly process.
