The **MHO+36TGG-R** is a specific part number typically associated with **D-Subminiature (D-Sub) connectors**, specifically a high-density, right-angle, PCB-mount variant. These are common in computer hardware, industrial controllers, and telecommunications. Below is a breakdown of its technical specifications and features. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table outlines the general characteristics of this component type: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Connector Type** | High-Density D-Sub | | **Number of Positions** | 15, 26, 44, or 62 (Standard for high density) | | **Mounting Type** | Right Angle Through-Hole (PCB Mount) | | **Gender** | Female (Socket) | | **Contact Material** | Copper Alloy | | **Contact Plating** | Gold (G) or Gold Flash over Nickel | | **Housing Material** | Thermoplastic (UL 94V-0 Rated) | | **Current Rating** | ~3A per contact | | **Operating Temperature** | -55°C to +105°C | --- ### 2. Part Number Breakdown While manufacturer codes vary slightly, the nomenclature usually signifies the following: * **MHO:** Series prefix (Often associated with "Metal Hood" or specific manufacturer series). * **36:** Often refers to the footprint or shell size. * **T:** Termination type (Through-hole). * **GG:** Contact plating (Gold on Gold). * **R:** Right-angle orientation. --- ### 3. Key Features * **Space Efficiency:** High-density connectors allow for more pins in a smaller shell size compared to standard D-Subs (e.g., 15 pins in a 9-pin shell size). * **EMI/RFI Shielding:** The metal shell provides grounding and protection against electromagnetic interference. * **Board Locks:** Usually equipped with mechanical "harpoons" or board locks to provide stability during the soldering process and prevent the connector from being pulled off the PCB. * **Durability:** Designed for high mating cycles, making it suitable for external I/O ports. --- ### 4. Typical Applications 1. **Video Output:** VGA (15-pin HD) connections for monitors. 2. **Industrial Automation:** Sensor arrays and PLC communication ports. 3. **Data Transmission:** RS-232/422/485 serial communication in compact spaces. 4. **Medical Equipment:** High-reliability signal routing.
