Circular pin headers consist of two parts: the male header (pin header) and the female header (socket). Male headers typically consist of metal pins and a plastic housing, while female headers contain metal holes and a plastic housing. These two parts, through precise design and manufacturing, achieve reliable mechanical and electrical connections.
Before selecting a circular pin header, its application environment must be clarified. For example, will the connector be used indoors or outdoors? Are waterproof or dustproof properties needed? Different application environments have different material and design requirements for the connector.
Based on circuit design requirements, determine the electrical parameters of the connector, such as current, voltage, and impedance. Ensure that the selected pin header meets the electrical performance requirements to guarantee the stability and reliability of the connection.
