M20-9723246

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The M20-9723246 is a rectangular board-to-board connector from the Harwin M20 series, designed for high-density PCB applications. It features a dual-in-line configuration with 32 positions arranged in two rows of sixteen contacts each. The component utilizes a standard 2.54 mm (0.1 inch) pitch to ensure compatibility with industry-standard mating connectors. Constructed with brass contacts and a nylon housing, it supports through-hole solder termination for secure PCB mounting. This male header is rated for a current capacity of 3 A and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C, ensuring reliability in demanding electronic environments.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Dual-in-line design facilitates compact board-to-board interconnections
• High-reliability brass contacts ensure stable electrical performance
• Through-hole solder tail provides robust mechanical fixation

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring dense signal routing
• Consumer electronics with limited board space constraints
• Telecommunications equipment needing reliable interconnects

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact plating finish and housing material variant against the official datasheet before procurement, as suffixes may alter environmental ratings. Confirm that the 3 A current rating aligns with your circuit requirements. Ensure the through-hole footprint matches your PCB layout guidelines to prevent assembly issues during manufacturing.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this model when a 32-position, 2.54 mm pitch male header is required for vertical mounting. Consider the M20 series if high-density packaging and industrial temperature stability are priorities. Evaluate the 3 A current rating against peak load conditions. Compare against alternative row counts if pin availability differs from system specifications.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the Harwin M20 series, a family of industrial standard headers known for their compact form factor and durability. The series offers various configurations including single and double rows with different termination styles. The M20-9723246 specifically addresses needs for higher pin counts in dual-row arrangements while maintaining the standard 2.54 mm spacing prevalent in legacy and modern PCB designs.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other 32-pin, 2.54 mm pitch dual-row male headers from manufacturers such as Samtec or Molex, provided they match the through-hole termination and 3 A current rating. Verify mechanical dimensions and mating interface compatibility before substitution.
