M20-8771546

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The M20-8771546 is a surface mount pin header from the Harwin M20 series, featuring 15 positions with a 2.54mm (0.100 inch) pitch. It utilizes square male pins made of brass with gold plating for mating contacts and tin plating for tails. The connector employs a polyamide (PA6T) insulator rated UL94 V-0 in black, supporting a current rating of 3A per contact at 250V. Designed for board-to-board or cable applications, it operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Surface mount construction with push-pull locking mechanism
• Gold-plated square male pins for reliable signal transmission
• Cuttable design allowing custom length configuration
• High-temperature resistant PA6T insulation material

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Cable-to-board connections
• General electronic circuit assembly

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '46' against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm exact plating thickness and tail length specifications. Ensure compatibility with automated pick-and-place equipment due to the surface mount form factor. Cross-reference the RoHS status and moisture sensitivity level prior to final procurement decisions.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, cuttable header is required for high-density layouts. The 2.54mm pitch ensures broad compatibility with standard PCB footprints. Consider the 3A current rating and 250V voltage limit for electrical safety margins in the target application environment.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the M20 series, a widely used line of rectangular connectors known for their versatility and reliability. The series offers various configurations including single and double rows with different mounting styles. The M20-8771546 specifically represents a single-row, surface-mount variant optimized for modern SMT production lines.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible mating sockets include Harwin M20-7871546. Verify that substitute parts maintain identical 2.54mm pitch and pin geometry to ensure mechanical fit and electrical continuity.
