M20-8770846

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The M20-8770846 is a pin header connector from the Harwin M20 series, designed for surface mount applications. It features an 8-position configuration with a single row and a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch. The connector utilizes square male pins made of brass with tin plating for reliable electrical contact. Constructed with a black polyamide (PA6T) insulator rated UL94 V-0, it supports board-to-board or wire-to-board interconnections. The unit operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C and carries a current rating of 3A per contact at 250V.

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the official Harwin datasheet to confirm pin count, row configuration, and termination type. Ensure compatibility with standard SMT reflow profiles and check for RoHS compliance documentation prior to procurement. Confirm that the tin-plated finish meets the required environmental conditions for the target application.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, single-row surface mount header is required for 2.54 mm pitch circuits. The tin-plated brass contacts offer a cost-effective solution for general-purpose signal transmission. Consider the 3A current rating and 250V voltage limit to ensure safe operation within the system's electrical parameters.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Harwin M20 series, a widely used line of rectangular connectors known for their reliability in harsh environments. The M20 series offers various configurations including through-hole and surface mount options, catering to diverse connectivity needs in modern electronic assemblies.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other 8-position, single-row, 2.54 mm pitch SMT headers from manufacturers such as Samtec or Molex. Verify mechanical dimensions, contact material, and plating thickness to ensure functional equivalence.
