M20-9970245

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The M20-9970245 is a vertical pin header assembly from the Harwin M20 series, designed for board-to-board or cable connections. It features a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch and a double in-line (DIL) configuration with two rows. The connector utilizes gold-plated brass contacts and a black nylon insulation body, rated for operation between -40°C and +105°C. It supports through-hole termination and offers a contact length of 6.10 mm for mating.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Vertical DIL pin header design for compact stacking
• Gold-plated contacts ensure reliable signal transmission
• Nylon insulation provides thermal stability up to 105°C

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnects
• Cable-to-board assemblies
• General electronic circuit connections

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific pin count and row configuration against the official datasheet before ordering, as the M20 series includes various lengths. Confirm that the vertical orientation and through-hole mounting style match the PCB layout requirements. Ensure compatibility with mating sockets of the same 2.54 mm pitch standard.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile vertical connection is required for high-density applications. The gold plating is suitable for environments requiring corrosion resistance. Consider the overall height constraints and the need for dual-row connectivity when evaluating alternative single-row options within the M20 family.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Harwin M20 series, a widely used line of connectors known for their reliability and standardized 2.54 mm spacing. The M20-9970245 specifically denotes a vertical, double-in-line header, distinguishing it from horizontal or single-row variants in the same product family.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other Harwin M20 series headers with matching 2.54 mm pitch and DIL configuration, such as M20-9970246 or M20-9970845, provided the pin count and physical dimensions are identical.
