M50-3030242

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Overview

The Harwin M50-3030242 is a single-row female header connector from the Archer M50 series, designed for through-hole PCB mounting. It features a 1.27mm (0.050 inch) pitch with 2 contacts. The connector utilizes gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts housed in polyamide (PA6T/Nylon 6T) insulation. Rated for 1A current and 1kV AC voltage, it operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C. This component is classified as a vertical socket suitable for general purpose, medical, and telecommunications applications.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Feature Summary

• Single-row vertical receptacle configuration for board-to-board interconnection
• Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts ensuring reliable signal transmission
• Polyamide insulation material providing thermal stability up to 105°C

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Applications

• General purpose electronic circuits
• Medical equipment interfaces
• Telecommunications hardware

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact count and row configuration against project requirements, as the M50 series includes various pin counts and orientations. Confirm that the through-hole mounting style aligns with the target PCB assembly process. Ensure the 1.27mm pitch matches the mating connector specifications to guarantee mechanical fit and electrical continuity.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, single-row vertical connection is required for high-density layouts. The 1.27mm pitch allows for compact circuit designs compared to standard 2.54mm headers. Consider the PA6T insulation for applications requiring higher thermal resistance during soldering or operation. Verify that the 1A current rating meets the power distribution needs of the connected circuitry.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Part Context

This part belongs to the Harwin Archer M50 series, which specializes in high-reliability, space-saving connectors. The series offers various configurations including surface mount and through-hole options with pitches ranging from 0.8mm to 1.27mm. The M50-3030242 specifically represents the entry-level 2-position variant in the single-row vertical through-hole category.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 1.27mm pitch, single-row, 2-pin, through-hole female header specification. Verify compatibility with existing mating pins and PCB footprint dimensions. Alternative parts should maintain similar current ratings and thermal characteristics if used in demanding environments.
