M80-6811042

Overview

The Harwin M80-6811042 is a Datamate L-Tek series receptacle connector featuring 10 positions arranged in a double inline (5+5) configuration. It utilizes a 2 mm pitch and employs gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts for reliable signal transmission. Designed for board-to-board or cable-to-board applications, this component supports vertical mounting via solder termination. The housing is constructed from black polyamide, offering durability across an operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Features fully shrouded contacts to ensure correct mating alignment and prevent pin damage during insertion.
• Utilizes polarized mouldings to guarantee precise orientation and secure connection integrity.
• Incorporates gold-plated contacts to provide low contact resistance and corrosion resistance in harsh environments.

Applications

• Automotive electronic systems requiring robust board-to-board interconnects
• Industrial control modules utilizing cable-to-board connections
• High-reliability data acquisition hardware

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm contact finish thickness and housing material variations. Ensure compatibility with corresponding male headers regarding polarization keys and row spacing. Confirm that the vertical mounting style aligns with PCB layout requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 10-position female receptacle with a 2 mm pitch is required for vertical assembly. Consider the gold plating for enhanced conductivity and the polyamide housing for thermal stability. Ensure the mating partner matches the Datamate L-Tek series specifications for proper mechanical engagement.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate L-Tek family, designed for high-reliability applications involving vibration and shock. The series is characterized by its four-finger beryllium copper contacts, ensuring connection integrity in demanding environments. It serves as a standard interconnect solution within Harwin's broader connector portfolio.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes are not explicitly confirmed in public documentation. Verify cross-compatibility with other 10-position 2mm pitch connectors only if mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings match precisely.
