M80-5S21205MD

Overview

The M80-5S21205MD is a Datamate J-Tek male header connector featuring a 12-position, dual in-line configuration with a 6+6 pin arrangement. Designed for surface mount technology, it utilizes right-angle termination to facilitate board-to-board or cable connections. The component operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and employs gold-plated contacts on phosphor bronze terminals. It includes keying slots, mating flanges, and mounting hardware for secure assembly.

Feature Summary

• Surface mount right-angle termination for compact PCB integration
• Dual in-line male pin configuration with keying slots for alignment
• Includes integrated mating and mounting flanges with hardware
• Gold-plated contacts ensure reliable signal transmission

Applications

• Board-to-board interconnects in industrial electronics
• Cable-to-board connections in automotive systems
• General purpose electronic equipment requiring secure locking

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm exact mechanical dimensions and contact plating specifications. Ensure compatibility with the corresponding Datamate J-Tek mating housing and verify that the required mounting hardware is included in the procurement package as per the datasheet.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a right-angle, surface-mount male header with a 2mm pitch is required. The 12-position capacity suits applications needing moderate density. Confirm that the PCB layout supports the right-angle footprint and that the locking mechanism aligns with the system's mechanical constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Harwin Datamate J-Tek series, known for its high-density interconnect capabilities. The M80-5S21205MD specifically addresses needs for robust, locked connections in space-constrained environments. It complements the broader Datamate ecosystem by providing specialized surface-mount options with enhanced mechanical stability.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other Harwin Datamate J-Tek headers with identical 12-position, right-angle SMT configurations. Verify that any alternative maintains the same 2mm pitch, gold plating thickness, and locking flange design to ensure interchangeability without redesign.
