M80-5T10642ME

Overview

The M80-5T10642ME is a 6-position, vertical through-hole board header from the Datamate J-Tek series by Harwin Inc. It features a 2.00mm pitch and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 121°C. The connector utilizes phosphor bronze contacts with gold plating for mating surfaces and tin plating for termination. Rated at 2.2A and up to 800VAC/DC, it employs a push-turn locking mechanism and includes keyway and flange features for secure alignment.

Feature Summary

• Push-turn locking mechanism ensures secure connection retention
• Keyway and flange design provides precise alignment
• High-reliability construction suitable for harsh environments

Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Cable-to-board connections
• Industrial control systems requiring high reliability

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm contact configuration and insulation height variations. Ensure compatibility with the corresponding female receptacle or cable assembly within the same Datamate J-Tek family. Confirm that the required stacking height matches the application's mechanical constraints before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, through-hole male header with a 2.00mm pitch is required. Consider the 800VAC/DC rating for applications demanding higher voltage isolation compared to standard 120V variants. The push-turn lock is essential for vibration-prone environments where standard latching may be insufficient.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate J-Tek series, known for high-reliability interconnects in demanding sectors. The M80-5T1 base model supports various configurations, with the ME suffix denoting specific mechanical attributes such as insulation height and contact arrangement within the 6-position format.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 6-position, 2.00mm pitch headers with push-turn locks from compatible families. Verify pin count, pitch, and locking mechanism type to ensure mechanical and electrical interchangeability without redesigning the PCB footprint.
