M20-8771842P

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The M20-8771842P is a vertical surface-mount pin header from the Harwin M20 series, designed for board-to-board and wire-to-board connections. It features a single row with 18 positions and a 2.54 mm pitch. The connector utilizes tin-plated contacts and solder termination for secure PCB attachment. Constructed with a nylon housing, it supports standard through-hole mating pins. This component is part of the broader M20 family known for reliable interconnect solutions in compact electronic assemblies.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Single-row configuration with standardized 2.54 mm spacing
• Tin-plated contacts for corrosion resistance and conductivity
• Nylon housing material providing structural stability

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections in compact electronics
• Wire-to-board connections for peripheral modules
• General-purpose signal routing in industrial control systems

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify end-of-life status before finalizing designs, as this specific variant may be discontinued or obsolete. Confirm RoHS compliance details directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors. Ensure that the tin plating specification meets your environmental requirements. Cross-reference the exact suffix 'P' to confirm packaging and reel specifications if applicable. Validate mechanical dimensions against your PCB footprint library prior to procurement.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, single-row SMT header is required for 18-position connectivity. The 2.54 mm pitch ensures compatibility with standard pin headers and ribbon cables. Consider the tin finish for general applications where gold plating is not strictly necessary. Evaluate the vertical orientation against available board clearance constraints. Compare against other M20 variants if different row counts or contact finishes are needed.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Harwin M20 series, a widely used line of connectors offering various configurations including DIL and single-row options. The M20 series is characterized by its robust construction and suitability for high-density applications. Similar parts in the series include M20-8771642P (16 positions) and M20-8772042P (20 positions), allowing for scalable design adjustments within the same form factor.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the M20 series include M20-8771642P and M20-8772042P for adjacent position counts. For cross-series replacements, verify pitch and row alignment with competitors like Samtec or Hirose. Ensure that any alternative maintains the same vertical SMT mounting style and tin plating characteristics to preserve mechanical and electrical compatibility.
