series introduction

# Introduction to the DF3A - 10P - 2DSA Product Series

## Overview
The DF3A - 10P - 2DSA product series represents a cutting - edge solution in the field of electrical connectors. These connectors are engineered to meet the diverse and demanding requirements of modern electronic systems, offering a high - performance, reliable, and versatile connection option for a wide range of applications.

## Key Features

### 1. Pin Configuration
The "10P" in the model name indicates that the connectors in this series feature 10 pins. This pin configuration is carefully designed to provide multiple connection points, allowing for the transmission of various types of electrical signals simultaneously. Whether it's power, data, or control signals, the 10 - pin design offers flexibility in system integration, enabling the connection of complex electronic components.

### 2. Dual - Side Design (2DSA)
The dual - side design (2DSA) is a standout feature of this product series. It allows for connections to be made from both sides of the connector, which significantly enhances the ease of installation and wiring. This design is particularly useful in applications where space is limited or where a more compact and efficient wiring layout is required. It also provides redundancy in some cases, improving the overall reliability of the electrical connection.

### 3. High - Quality Materials
The DF3A - 10P - 2DSA connectors are constructed using high - quality materials. The contacts are made from a conductive metal alloy that offers low resistance, ensuring efficient signal and power transmission. The housing is typically made from a durable plastic material that provides excellent insulation and protection against environmental factors such as dust, moisture, and mechanical stress. This combination of materials ensures long - term performance and reliability in various operating conditions.

### 4. Precise Manufacturing
These connectors are manufactured with high precision. The pin alignment is extremely accurate, which is crucial for proper electrical contact and signal integrity. The tight tolerances in the manufacturing process ensure that the connectors fit together snugly, reducing the risk of loose connections or intermittent electrical faults. This precision also makes the connectors suitable for use in high - speed data transmission applications, where even small variations in pin alignment can cause significant signal degradation.

## Performance Specifications

### 1. Electrical Performance
- **Contact Resistance**: The connectors have a low contact resistance, typically in the range of a few milliohms. This low resistance minimizes power loss during signal and power transmission, improving the overall efficiency of the electrical system.
- **Insulation Resistance**: With a high insulation resistance, usually in the order of several gigaohms, the connectors effectively prevent electrical leakage between pins. This is essential for maintaining the integrity of the electrical signals and preventing short - circuits.
- **Voltage Rating**: The DF3A - 10P - 2DSA connectors are designed to handle a specific voltage range. They can typically withstand voltages up to [X] volts, making them suitable for a variety of low - to medium - voltage applications.

### 2. Mechanical Performance
- **Mating Cycles**: These connectors are designed to withstand a large number of mating and unmating cycles. They can typically endure [X] mating cycles without significant degradation in performance, ensuring long - term reliability in applications where frequent connection and disconnection are required.
- **Vibration and Shock Resistance**: The connectors are engineered to resist vibration and shock. They can maintain a stable electrical connection even in environments with high levels of mechanical stress, such as in automotive or industrial applications.

## Applications

### 1. Consumer Electronics
In consumer electronics, the DF3A - 10P - 2DSA connectors can be used in devices such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops. They can be employed for connecting internal components like the motherboard to the display, battery
