Din41612 Connector

Antenk DIN41612 Connectors are a versatile two piece PCB connector set with feaures useful for many applications including connections for plug-in card and back-panel wiring, PCB to PCB attachment and peripheral connections for external interfaces. Features include a multitude of body sizes and styles with options that include selective contact loading, make and break contacts, contact lead length choices and contact plating variations each in .100" [2.54mm] or .200" [5.08mm] centerline spacing.


The DIN 41612 standard covers a series of two-piece backplane connectors widely used in rack-based telecommunication, computing, process control, medical, industrial automation, test and measurement and military/aerospace systems where long-term reliability is required. They consist of one to three rows of contacts in combinations of 16, 32, 48, 64, or 96 contacts on a 0.1-inch (2.54 mm) grid pitch. The 3 rows are labelled a, b and c and connectors up to 64 way if using a 96 way body can use either rows a+b or a+c. DIN 41612 Signal connectors can be rated to 1.5 amps per signal pin, at 500 volts, although these figures may be de-rated according to safety requirements or environmental conditions. Several hybrid power and coaxial configurations are available that can handle up to 5.6A or even 15A. This wealth of variations explains the very wide range of applications that they`re put to. For over 30 years these DIN 41612 `Euro Card` connectors to IEC 60603-2 have offered a highly reliable system for board interconnects. Precision contact density, low mating forces, a two piece protective design and many contact termination styles offer unlimited design opportunities. Termination methods include – straight PC, solder eyelet, wire wrap, crimp and [press fit" terminals. Insertion and removal force are controlled, and three durability grades are available. Standardisation of the connectors is a prerequisite for open systems, where users expect components from different suppliers to operate together; ept and Conec DIN 41612 are therefore fully intermateable with all other similarly compliant products from other manufacturers like Harting, Erni, Hirose and TE Connectivity, etc.

The most common connector in the DIN product line is type C, which is widely used in VMEbus systems, the DIN 41612 standard has been upgraded to meet international standards IEC 60603-2 and EN 60603-2. In the past, ept used a comb supported press-fit tool for their type C and B press-fit female connectors. To be more competitive, ept has changed to flat-rock technology (just a flat piece of steel pushed on the top of the connector) as used by many other manufacturers.


DIN 41612 Connectors are widely used in rack-based electrical systems. The standard performance of these connectors is a 2 A per pin current carrying capacity and 500 V working voltage. Both figures may be variable due to safety and environmental conditions.
