M80-8260622

Overview

The M80-8260622 is a Datamate L-Tek series header connector manufactured by Harwin Inc. It features a vertical surface mount design with 6 positions arranged in a 2-row configuration. The connector utilizes a 2mm pitch and employs male pin contacts made of phosphor bronze, finished with tin/lead plating. Rated for 120V and 3A, it uses black PPS insulation with glass fiber reinforcement. This unlatched variant is designed for board-to-board or cable applications.

Feature Summary

• Vertical surface mount construction for direct PCB integration
• Unlatched friction lock mechanism for secure mating
• Gold-plated contact interface ensuring reliable signal transmission
• High-temperature resistant PPS insulation material

Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Cable-to-board assemblies
• Industrial control systems
• Telecommunications equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm the terminal plating composition, as this model specifies tin/lead contacts which may differ from lead-free variants. Confirm that the unlatched design aligns with the mechanical retention requirements of the target assembly. Ensure compatibility with mating sockets within the same Datamate L-Tek family to guarantee correct pin alignment and electrical continuity.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical SMT profile is required without the need for latching hardware. The 2mm pitch allows for dense circuit layouts while maintaining adequate spacing. Consider the tin/lead contact finish for cost-sensitive applications where lead-free compliance is not mandated. Verify that the 120V rating meets the system's voltage isolation requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate L-Tek family, known for compact rectangular connectors. It serves as a male header counterpart to female jacksockets. The vertical orientation distinguishes it from right-angle variants, offering different stacking height profiles. It is designed for high-reliability environments requiring robust mechanical and electrical performance.

FAQ

Is the M80-8260622 compatible with standard Datamate J-Tek sockets?

No, it is part of the Datamate L-Tek series and requires mating with L-Tek female jacksockets for proper engagement.

What is the locking mechanism type for this connector?

It uses an unlatched friction lock design, relying on the mating force of the socket for retention rather than a separate latch.
