Overview

This document details the specifications and part numbering system for M5 circular connectors of A-Size, including solder dip, panel cut-out, and cable assembly types with male and female configurations.

Part Numbering System

The part number format is structured as follows: CA - - L0 - F0, where each segment encodes specific connector attributes.

• Pin Number: Options include 02, 03, 04, 05, 06 pins.
• Pin Type: 'S' for Solder, 'D' for Dip.
• Mounting Type: 'F' for Front Mount, 'H' for Rear Mount.
• Electric Current Rating: 'D' for 5A, 'U' for 2A.
• Cable and Panel Options: Cable length indicated by numbers (e.g., 01 for 1 meter, 02 for 2 meters).
• Connector & Pin Gender: 'MM' for Male Connector with Male Pin, 'FF' for Female Connector with Female Pin, 'FM' for Female Connector with Male Pin, 'MF' for Male Connector with Female Pin.
• Appearance Shape: 'P' for Plastic Circle, 'Q' for Plastic Square.
• EMI Shielding: 'N' for Non-Shielding, 'S' for Shielding.
• Angle: 'R' for 90°, 'L' for 180°.
• Lock Type: 'L' for Lock, 'S' for Screw.

Electrical and Mechanical Specifications

• Rated Current: 2A for 2 to 5 pins, 5A for 6 pins.
• Applicable Temperature Range: -40°C to +105°C.
• Pin Way and Gender: Male and Female configurations available for 2 to 6 pins.

Assembly Types

Assembly part numbers follow the format: CA - AP - S0 - 00, indicating pin number, lock type, electric current, and connector gender.

Key Recommendations and Limitations

• Ensure correct pin number and type selection based on current requirements.
• Choose appropriate mounting type and lock mechanism for installation environment.
• Verify cable length and angle to match application needs.
• Consider EMI shielding options depending on electromagnetic interference conditions.
• Temperature ratings must be respected to ensure connector reliability.
