The **FLCS-62-R** is a specific electronic component, primarily recognized as a high-density **D-Subminiature (D-Sub) Connector**. These connectors are widely used in industrial, aerospace, and telecommunications applications for reliable signal transmission. --- ## Technical Specifications | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Connector Type** | High-Density D-Sub | | **Number of Positions** | 62 Pins | | **Gender** | Receptacle (Female) | | **Mounting Type** | Right-Angle Through-Hole (PCB) | | **Contact Material** | Copper Alloy | | **Plating** | Selective Gold (on mating area) | | **Current Rating** | ~3A per contact | --- ## Key Features ### 1. High-Density Configuration The "62" in the part number signifies 62 contact points. By using a high-density arrangement (3 or 4 rows of pins instead of the standard 2), it provides more signal paths within the same physical footprint as a standard DB-37 connector. ### 2. Right-Angle Orientation The suffix **-R** typically denotes a **Right-Angle** mounting style. This allows the connector to sit flat on a Printed Circuit Board (PCB), with the interface facing outwards towards the edge of the device enclosure. ### 3. Durability and Shielding * **Metal Shell:** Usually constructed with a steel or tin-plated shell to provide EMI/RFI shielding. * **Boardlocks:** Often includes mechanical boardlocks to ensure the connector remains securely attached to the PCB during the soldering process and throughout its operational life. --- ## Common Applications * **Industrial Automation:** Connecting PLCs to sensors or control panels. * **Telecommunications:** High-speed data transmission in networking racks. * **Medical Equipment:** Used in diagnostic machinery where multiple signal lines are required in a compact space. * **Video Interfaces:** Sometimes utilized in specialized high-definition analog video routing. --- ## Wiring and Pinout Because it is a 62-position high-density connector, the pins are arranged in **three rows**. When designing a PCB for this part, engineers must follow a specific footprint pattern to ensure the pins align with the drilled holes on the board.
