KD3003-DC10A Printheads Thick Film Thermal Printhead (300dpi) KD3003-DC10A KD3003-DC10A is developing type of GL40 series which are developed mainly for label printers. We have adopted low coefficient of abrasion and conductive protection coat to GL40 series which are possible for high speed and good printing quality. That is KD3003-DC10A which is 24V standard thick film thermal print head with high speed, high quality of printing, high durability, long life, and strong resistance to abration. zApplications High speed label printer Food label printer High speed ticket printer High speed terminal printer zFeatures 1) Perform 150km life time adopting new protective coat. (Perform three times life time by coefficient of abrasion which is about is about 1/10 of current mass-producing coat.) 2) Build in thermal high speeded heater and perform high printing 4 IPS. (100mm / s) 3) Available for thermal transfer printing by adopting specific partial glaze. zExternal dimensions (Unit : mm) TYPE OF PRINTHEAD 20.656±0.2 40±0.3 DOT #960 #1 HIROSE HIF3FC-20PA-2.54DS #20 #6 #1 Max.5.5 60.5±0.3 17.8±0.2 7.3±0.3 Max.10 #2 15.3±0.3 20 Ma x.φ (20.8) 25±0.5 20±0.3 (3) Max.36 Max.45 φ3H10 Length 4 (Effective Depth 3) (5) 81.312(Effetive Print Width) DOT #960 DOT #1 (4.844) 3-M3(Effective Depth 3) 6.1±0.4 91 20.5±0.3 φ3H10 (Effective Depth 3) #19 JST B6PS-VH 1/4 KD3003-DC10A Printheads zEquivalent circuit DOT #960 VH DOT #1 VSF L/S #960 #705 #704 #449 #448 #193 #192 #1 GND VDD STB4 STB3 STB2 STB1 /LAT LATCH REGISTER CLK SHIFT REGISTER SHIFT REGISTER SHIFT REGISTER SHIFT REGISTER DI4 DO4 DI3 DO3 DI2 DO2 DI1 DO1 TM THERMISTOR 30kΩ B : 3950K TM CONNECTOR VSF : Usually VSF and VH are connected.
