The **JB5CS08AN00-RK** is a specialized high-density circular connector manufactured by **JAE (Japan Aviation Electronics Industry)**. It belongs to the **JB5 series**, which is designed for compact, handheld electronic devices that require robust, waterproof connections. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications Below is a breakdown of the electronic and mechanical characteristics: | Property | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Contact Type** | Receptacle (Socket) | | **Number of Positions** | 8 Pins | | **Current Rating** | 2A per contact | | **Voltage Rating** | 100 VAC (rms) | | **Waterproof Rating** | IP68 (when mated) | | **Operating Temperature** | -40°C to +100°C | | **Termination Method** | Solder | | **Shell Material** | Zinc Alloy (Nickel Plated) | --- ### 2. Key Electronic Features #### High-Density Design The "08" in the part number signifies **8 contacts** packed into a very small form factor. This allows for multi-signal transmission (e.g., power, data, and sensing) through a single interface, saving PCB real estate. #### Push-Pull Locking Mechanism Unlike threaded connectors that require turning, this part utilizes a **push-pull mating system**. This ensures: * **Tactile feedback:** An audible "click" confirms the connection. * **Quick Disconnect:** Useful for emergency detachment or high-frequency usage. #### Shielding & EMI Protection The metal shell (Zinc alloy) provides excellent grounding and **EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) shielding**. This is critical for maintaining signal integrity in 8-pin configurations where crosstalk between wires could occur. --- ### 3. Application Areas Due to its ruggedized but compact nature, this part is commonly found in: * **Medical Equipment:** Portable ultrasound or monitoring devices. * **Handheld Terminals:** Rugged scanners and industrial tablets. * **Acoustic Gear:** High-end professional audio and communication headsets. * **Test & Measurement:** Compact sensors used in field environments. --- ### 4.
