M80-5511242

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The M80-5511242 is a Datamate J-Tek series header connector manufactured by Harwin Inc. It features a vertical through-hole mounting style with a 2mm (0.079 inch) mating pitch and a 2mm row spacing. The component provides 6+6 positions, totaling 12 contacts, arranged in two rows. It utilizes male pin contact types made from phosphor bronze with gold plating for mating surfaces. The housing is constructed from black polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) reinforced with glass fiber, rated UL94 V-0. The connector supports a rated current of 3A and a voltage of 120V, operating within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• High-density 2mm pitch design allows for compact board space utilization
• Robust PPS insulation material provides thermal stability and flame resistance
• Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts ensure reliable signal transmission

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust interconnects
• Medical equipment needing high reliability and small form factors
• Automotive electronics applications
• Telecommunications infrastructure hardware

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the official Harwin datasheet to confirm exact tail length and jack screw options. Ensure compatibility with mating female connectors from the same Datamate J-Tek family. Check RoHS compliance status if required for your region. Confirm lead times as they may vary based on production schedules. Always reference the latest manufacturer documentation for accurate mechanical drawings and footprint details before finalizing procurement orders.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical through-hole header with a 2mm pitch is required. Ensure the application demands a 12-position configuration with male pins. Verify that the operating environment stays within the specified -55°C to +125°C range. Consider the 3A current rating for power distribution needs. Match the connector height and tail length requirements with the PCB stack-up design constraints.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate J-Tek family, known for its push-pull locking system. It is designed for high-reliability applications where vibration resistance is critical. The series offers various configurations including different row counts and contact materials. It serves as a standard solution for board-to-board and cable-to-board connections in compact electronic assemblies.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Harwin Datamate J-Tek headers with identical 2mm pitch and 12-position layout. Verify mechanical dimensions and locking mechanism compatibility before substitution. Generic connectors may not match the push-pull locking force or environmental ratings.
