M80-6671242

Overview

The M80-6671242 is a Datamate L-Tek series header connector manufactured by Harwin Inc. It features a surface mount, right-angle configuration with 12 positions arranged in two rows. The mating pitch is 0.079 inches (2.00mm). The contacts are male pins made of brass with gold plating on the mating interface and tin on the tail. The housing is constructed from black, glass-filled polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) rated UL94 V-0. It supports board-to-board or cable-to-board applications with a rated voltage of 120V and current of 3A. Operating temperature ranges from -55°C to 125°C.

Feature Summary

• Surface mount right-angle design for compact PCB integration
• Gold-plated brass contacts ensure reliable signal transmission
• High-temperature PPS insulation provides thermal stability
• Dual-row configuration maximizes pin density

Applications

• Board-to-board interconnects in embedded systems
• Cable-to-board connections in industrial control units
• Signal routing in automotive electronic modules
• Compact power distribution in space-constrained devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official Harwin documentation to confirm exact contact plating thickness and material composition. Ensure compatibility with mating receptacles from the same Datamate L-Tek family. Confirm surface mount footprint dimensions match the target PCB layout before ordering. Check for any recent product change notices regarding material updates.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a right-angle surface mount header is required for high-density signal lines. The 2mm pitch allows for compact layouts compared to larger spacing options. Consider the 12-position count for balanced I/O requirements. Verify that the 120V rating meets the circuit's electrical demands. Ensure the operating temperature range aligns with the environmental conditions of the final assembly.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate L-Tek series, designed for high-reliability applications. It complements other surface mount headers in the M80 family. The series is known for robust mechanical locking and consistent electrical performance. It serves as a standard solution for modern electronics requiring durable, space-efficient connections.

Replacement Considerations
