M80-5T10605ME

Overview

The M80-5T10605ME is a Datamate J-Tek series vertical through-board header manufactured by Harwin Inc. It features six positions with a 2.00mm pitch and dual rows. The connector utilizes phosphor bronze contacts with gold plating on the mating interface and tin on the tail, housed in black glass-filled polyphenylene sulfide (PPS). Rated for 2.2A at 120V, it employs a push-turn locking mechanism and includes keying slots and mating flanges for secure board-to-board or cable connections.

Feature Summary

• Push-turn locking mechanism ensures secure connection retention
• Keyed design prevents misalignment during mating
• Dual-row configuration supports high-density interconnects
• Gold-plated contacts provide reliable signal transmission

Applications

• Board-to-board interconnects
• Cable-to-board assemblies
• Industrial control systems
• Test and measurement equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the official Harwin datasheet to ensure correct contact finish, insulation material, and locking style compatibility. Confirm that the required stacking heights align with system mechanical constraints before procurement. Check for RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to your assembly process.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, locked header with a 2.00mm pitch is required. Ensure the mating connector belongs to the same Datamate J-Tek family for proper engagement. Consider the thermal operating range of -55°C to 121°C for environmental suitability. Verify that the current rating of 2.2A meets the circuit requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate J-Tek family, designed for compact electronic applications requiring robust mechanical locking. The series offers various configurations for power and signal transmission. The M80-5T10605ME specifically addresses needs for vertical mounting with secure retention in space-constrained environments.

Replacement Considerations

M80-5T10642MC is a similar 6-position variant within the same series but may differ in specific mechanical dimensions or packaging. Verify exact pinout and locking mechanism compatibility before substitution. Cross-reference with Harwin's official replacement guide for obsolete parts.
