Features of the DIN 41612 connector for board-to-board applications
The DIN 41612 connector remains widely used, particularly as an industrial connector. For example, the VME bus—which has been available on the market for over 35 years—is based on DIN connectors. This has enabled it to secure a very strong position in the industrial PC sector, and it continues to be used in new developments. The wide variety of different types and termination technologies (press-fit technology, dip soldering, hand soldering, wire-wrap technology, crimp, and THR) available for DIN connectors cover a broad spectrum of applications. Furthermore, their robust and reliable construction ensures that these PCB connectors will continue to be relevant in the future. Today, DIN 41612 connectors are used in applications ranging from signal transmission to the transmission of higher currents. And this applies to all areas of industrial electronics: from control technology and motor controls to industrial PCs.

press-fit technology: Tcom press by ept
In light of the increasing miniaturization of assemblies and higher component density on printed circuit boards, the solderless “press-fit technology” method is being used more and more frequently. Press-fit connections are created by pressing a connector pin into a through-hole in the printed circuit board. plated through hole (PTH) enables an electrical connection between opposing layers of the printed circuit board. To achieve this, a hole is drilled through the board, and copper is applied as the carrier material.
The connection is made using a defined and controlled force—an enormous advantage for consistent quality and fast, trouble-free processing. What makes this special is that the press-fit pin has a larger diagonal dimension than the hole diameter of the printed circuit board. The flexibility lies in the press-fit zone.
Press-in tools allow multiple connector to be pressed in at the same time. Unlike with soldering, the printed circuit boards are not subjected to thermal stress during this process. A gas-tight, durable, and mechanically and electrically conductive connection with low contact resistance is formed between the press-fit pin and the hole wall.

last-mate contact on the DIN 41612 connector
The DIN 41612/IEC 60603-2 connector family (connector family) consists of 12 basic types with supplementary variants. For DIN-connector of types B, C, R, D, and E, male contacts with a 0.8 mm or 1.0 mm lead-in can be used in any position of rows a, b, c, d, and e. For type F and G, lead-in distances of 1.3 mm are possible.
Why use a leading contact or last-mate contact?
Leading and last-mate contacts are used in electrical engineering to prevent voltage spikes and thus overvoltage. With these contacts, the connection is established first or last, respectively, and is also broken first or last, respectively.
Do you need a connector with leading or last-mate contacts?
No problem. We offer custom loadings for DIN types B, C, R, D, E, F, and G. The leading contact can be installed in any desired position.

DIN 41612 Switch Connector
for Daisy Chaining
Many bus systems in automation technology are wired according to the daisy-chain principle. Looping signal lines through multiple circuit boards in series is a common practice. However, if individual circuit boards are removed, jumpers must be inserted. This problem can be solved more elegantly using switch connectors. When the daughter daughtercard is removed, the contact is automatically short-circuited, eliminating the need to manually insert jumpers.

ept connector DIN 41612 / IEC 60603-2 product series
“connector that comply with today’s IEC 60603-2 (formerly DIN 41612) have been in use for over 50 years. And for good reason. Even though technology has evolved and, in the age of IoT and Industry 2.0, applications are becoming smaller yet still contain more assemblies, DIN connectors are still just as relevant as they were five decades ago—thanks to their compatibility with the latest board designs, facilitated by their wide variety of types, numbers of positions, and termination technologies.
In addition to soldering and wire wrap techniques, ept also offers the option to obtain the connector connector family in the Tcom press press-fit zone developed by ept.
The ept DIN 41612 / IEC 60603-2 product series comprises 12 basic body styles as well as additional complementary versions with 2.54 mm or 5.08 mm pitch. The selection includes both signal connectors with a current-current-carrying capacity of up to 1.5 A and power connectors with up to 5.6 A or even 15 A per pin. This wide range of variants enables the use of the connector connector family in an extremely broad range of applications. Standardization ensures compatibility among connectors from different manufacturers."

How can DIN 41612 connector be processed?
Depending on the connection technology (termination technology), this includes press-fit or soldering technology (solder termination), as well as through-hole reflow technology, FASTON termination, or insulation displacement connection (IDC)
What currents can be transmitted using DIN 41612 connectors?
The selection includes both signal connectors with a current-current-carrying capacity of up to 1.5 A and power connectors with up to 5.6 A or even 15 A per pin.
Are the DIN 41612 connector RoHS-compliant?
Yes, all of them.
What misalignment do DIN 41216 connector tolerate during mating?
The DIN connectors feature a high misalignment tolerance. For example, when mating blade connectors and spring-contact connectors (Female), a 1 mm radial misalignment (center misalignment) is permitted in both the longitudinal and transverse axes. The angular misalignment tolerance is 4° longitudinally and 2° transversely.
Are there suitable tools available for processing ept’s DIN 41216 connectors? Which
Yes, we offer you the right tools, tailored to your connector.

Our customers must be able to reliably adapt to our devices even under harsh conditions. That is why we have relied for years on the high quality standards of ept’s DIN connector.
“The wide selection of press-fit connectors, including the angled versions, really won me over.”
By using the THR variant, the wave soldering step can be eliminated, making the process significantly more cost-effective.
