G125-MS11605L2R

Overview

The Harwin G125-MS11605L2R is a Gecko-Latch series power-to-board header featuring a 1.25 mm pitch and 16 positions in a 2x8 configuration. It utilizes male pin contacts with gold plating on phosphor bronze, housed in green polyamide (PA). Rated for 2 A current and 250 V/450 V voltage, it supports surface mount soldering with straight installation. The component operates between -65°C and +150°C, offering 10 GOhms insulation resistance.

Feature Summary

• Gecko-Latch mechanical locking system ensures secure mating retention
• Shrouded design provides alignment and protection during assembly
• Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts ensure reliable conductivity
• Polyamide housing offers thermal stability up to +150°C

Applications

• Power distribution in compact electronic assemblies
• Board-to-board interconnects requiring latch retention
• Industrial control systems with high thermal demands

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'L2R' against the official Harwin datasheet to confirm lead-free status and reel packaging specifications. Ensure compatibility with RoHS directives if required by your manufacturing process. Cross-reference the 16-position layout to prevent ordering errors within the Gecko-Latch family.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a shrouded, latching power connector is required for space-constrained designs. The 1.25 mm pitch allows for higher density compared to standard headers. Verify that the 2 A rating meets the circuit's continuous current requirements and that the SMT mounting style aligns with the PCB assembly capabilities.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Harwin Gecko-Latch series, designed for robust power connections. It complements female counterparts like the G125-FV series. The Gecko brand emphasizes secure mechanical engagement, distinguishing it from standard non-latching headers in the same pitch range.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Harwin Gecko-Latch headers with identical 1.25 mm pitch and 16-position layouts. Verify that any replacement maintains the same shrouded height and latch mechanism to ensure proper fit and function in existing tooling.
