------Question for LNA-20-06001800-25-15P Please Put your question below------
Hello, my question is regarding of the DC power connector. I see only a pin for VCC, I would like know the name, I didn’t find the name in the data sheet.
I would like to have a proper power connection and avoid any short cut.
Hello oscar.lobato , welcome to the TechForum! Your setup seems a little different than the datasheet here. The long bronze colored pin should be the positive voltage connection (many know it as Vcc) and the ground terminal is the pin with a little round disc on top connected to the nut. Here is an image below.
Yours seems to have the ground on the side. I think it could be labeled either +V and GND or +6V and GND in your case.
Hello Kaleb_Kohihase, thanks for the clarification, and you are right about the ground and DC terminal. But my question is more orientated to, what kind of connector do I need to use in order to power up the filter?
Until now my alternative to power the unit is to use a pair of cables like this:
I’m not sure there is one “correct” way in this instance. These pins don’t look like any standard connector to me. If you are looking for something more secure, you could try direct soldering. However, if you need to remove the wires from time to time, that might be a little more tricky.
There are a few ways one can do this, think of these as potential solutions. You could treat the .8mm pin as a “wire” and use some kind of terminal block adapter in that instance. These are what I’m thinking of, click HERE.
The ground lug is a little trickier due to the shape. Maybe it would be best to either solder a wire directly to this and add a connector of your choice to the end. You could also try to find a ring terminal with an inner diameter bigger than the top post and then use that as a solder point to be a little more secure. It doesn’t seem like they intended an “exact connector” to me.
