How to properly use the female header connector

After the user purchases, in the process of use, several considerations must be borne in mind, if you ignore these operational considerations, may affect the performance of the female header connector, so the user uses the female when there are operational matters that need attention. The following is a detailed introduction to the use of female header connectors when you need to pay attention to operational matters.

Precautions for the use of female header connectors

The operation needs to pay attention to the following five main aspects.

1. thermal design: the female header connectors in the work will be hot, and the temperature is too high will affect the LED decay speed and stability, so the PCB board heat dissipation, box ventilation, and heat dissipation will affect the female header connect.

2. Check the anti-static: check whether the female header connector has good anti-static measures.

3. The smaller current value of the female header connectors is 20mA, it is generally recommended that its maximum use current is no more than 80% of the nominal value, especially for electronic equipment with very small point spacing, due to poor thermal conditions, the current value should also be reduced.

4. control the verticality of the board for the direct plug-in female header connectors, over the furnace to have sufficient process technology to ensure that the LED is vertical to the PCB board.

5. Over the wave soldering temperature and time shall be strictly controlled wavefront welding temperature and over the furnace time. Preheating temperature is 100 ℃ ± 5 ℃, the maximum does not exceed 120 ℃, and preheating temperature rise requires a smooth, welding temperature of 245 ℃ ± 5 ℃, It is recommended that the welding time not exceed 3 seconds.

The use of circular pin and female header connectors

The round hole pin and female header connectors belong to one of the major categories of pin and female header connectors

1. When installing, if you find that the number of pins in the row of pins is insufficient, etc., please replace them immediately. Otherwise, it will lead to a malfunction in the use of the pin and female header connectors.

2. When using more rows of circular pin and female header connectors, pay attention to the connection between the pin header connector and the female header connector to see if each pin header connector is aligned with the pinhole of the female header connector.

3. Slowly plug and unplug the round hole pin header connector and the female header connector when using. Do not use force to avoid damaging the pins and pay attention to the ends of the pins sticking out together.

4. When using the round hole pin and female header connector for a long time, you should carefully clean the dust inside the pinhole of the female header connector.

Understanding the above, you should have an understanding of how to use the female header connector, familiar with the operation of the female header connector precautions can improve the performance of the product.
