M80-5124242P

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The M80-5124242P is a Datamate J-Tek series rectangular connector header manufactured by Harwin Inc. It features 42 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration with a 2.00 mm (0.079 inch) mating pitch. Designed for surface-mount installation, this component utilizes male pin contacts made from phosphor bronze with gold plating. The housing is constructed from black polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) reinforced with glass fiber, ensuring UL 94 V-0 flammability rating and operation within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

• Shrouded design providing mechanical alignment and protection
• Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts for reliable signal transmission
• High-temperature resistant PPS insulation material

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust board-to-board connections
• Automotive electronics utilizing surface-mount headers
• General-purpose electronic assemblies needing high-density interconnects

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'P' against the official Harwin datasheet to confirm it denotes the correct packaging or variant, as standard part numbers may differ. Ensure compatibility with the intended PCB footprint and soldering profile. Cross-reference the 42-position count and 2.00mm pitch with system requirements before procurement to prevent integration errors.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density, surface-mount male header is required for dual-row applications. The 2.00mm pitch offers a balance between density and spacing. Consider the shrouded design for improved mating accuracy. Verify that the operating environment falls within the specified -55°C to +125°C range and that the gold contact plating meets the conductivity needs.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate J-Tek family, known for its versatility in board-to-board and wire-to-board connections. The M80-5124242P specifically addresses the need for surface-mount solutions within this series, offering a male pin configuration suitable for mating with female sockets. It complements other variants in the lineup that may offer through-hole or different row configurations.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include M80-5124242 if the 'P' suffix indicates only packaging differences. For alternative suppliers, verify exact dimensional tolerances, contact material specifications, and mounting hole patterns to ensure functional interchangeability without modifying the PCB layout.
