M20-8771542

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The M20-8771542 is a surface mount header connector from the Harwin M20 series, designed for board-to-board or cable applications. It features a single row with 15 positions and a 2.54mm pitch. The connector utilizes gold-plated brass contacts for mating and tin-plated brass pins for termination. Rated at 3A per contact and 250V, it operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C. The housing is made of black PA6T nylon with UL94 V-0 flammability rating.

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix code against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm contact plating thickness and terminal finish specifications. Ensure the selected variant matches the required operating temperature range and current rating for the target application environment. Cross-reference the RoHS compliance status with the latest environmental declaration provided by Harwin Inc. before finalizing procurement orders.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-row surface mount header is required for high-density layouts. The 2.54mm pitch offers standard compatibility with existing PCB footprints. Consider the 3A current rating and 250V voltage limit to ensure safety margins are met. Verify that the straight orientation fits the mechanical constraints of the enclosure design.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the M20 series, a family of connectors known for robust mechanical stability and high-temperature performance. The series includes various row counts and configurations, all sharing common mounting characteristics and material properties. The M20-8771542 specifically addresses needs for single-row surface mount applications requiring reliable signal transmission.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other single-row SMT headers with identical 2.54mm pitch and 15-position count. Ensure replacement parts match the 3A/250V ratings and -40°C to 105°C temperature range. Verify that the new component maintains the same surface mount footprint and pin configuration to avoid PCB redesign.
