M80-5112042

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The M80-5112042 is a Datamate J-Tek male header connector manufactured by Harwin Inc. It features a 20-position configuration arranged in two rows, providing a 10+10 pin layout. The connector utilizes a 2.00mm (0.079 inch) mating pitch with a 2.54mm row spacing. Designed for vertical through-hole mounting, it includes a 4.5mm tail length and keying slots for secure alignment. Constructed with phosphor bronze contacts featuring tin plating and PPS insulation, it supports board-to-board or wire-to-board applications within a -55°C to +125°C operating temperature range.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Vertical through-hole mounting design with integrated keying slots for precise alignment
• Shrouded housing structure utilizing polyphenylene sulfide insulation material
• Phosphor bronze contacts with tin plating for reliable signal transmission
• Compatible with Datamate J-Tek mating system for standardized interconnection

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections in compact electronic assemblies
• Wire-to-board connections requiring vertical orientation
• Industrial control systems operating within specified temperature ranges
• General purpose electronic equipment requiring secure mechanical locking

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact plating finish against project requirements, as datasheet variations may indicate tin or gold options. Confirm the exact tail length specification matches the PCB stack-up constraints. Ensure compatibility with the intended mating receptacle from the Datamate J-Tek series. Check for any updated environmental compliance certifications prior to final procurement approval.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical through-hole male header with a 2.00mm pitch is required. The 20-position count suits applications needing moderate I/O density. Consider the tin-plated contacts if cost efficiency is prioritized over high-cycle durability. Verify that the shrouded design aligns with spatial restrictions and mating access requirements in the assembly.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate J-Tek series, known for its robust mechanical locking mechanism and high-density capabilities. The M80-5112042 specifically represents a standard vertical header variant. It complements other connectors in the family, such as right-angle headers and cable assemblies, offering designers flexibility in creating reliable interconnect solutions for various industrial and commercial electronics.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include M80-5102042 and M80-5122042, which share similar form factors but differ in tail length or contact plating. Cross-reference mating receptacles like M80-4612042 to ensure interface compatibility. Verify that alternative parts maintain the same 2.00mm pitch and through-hole mounting style to preserve PCB footprint integrity.
