M80-8272642P

Overview

The M80-8272642P is a Datamate L-Tek series header connector manufactured by Harwin Inc. It features a surface mount installation style with a vertical orientation and friction lock retention mechanism. The component provides 26 positions arranged in two rows, utilizing a 2.00mm mating pitch and 2.00mm row spacing. Contacts are male pins made of phosphor bronze with gold plating on the mating interface. The housing is constructed from black polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) reinforced with glass fiber, rated UL94 V-0 for flammability. It supports a maximum current of 3.0A and voltage of 120V, operating within a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

Feature Summary

• Friction latch retention system secures mating connections without screws
• Four-wall shrouded design ensures precise alignment during assembly
• Gold-plated circular contacts provide reliable signal transmission
• High-temperature PPS insulation material ensures thermal stability

Applications

• Board-to-board interconnects requiring compact vertical stacking
• Cable-to-board connections in space-constrained electronic modules
• Industrial control systems needing robust surface mount headers
• Automotive electronics applications demanding high reliability

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'P' against official Harwin documentation to confirm packaging or compliance variations. Check current manufacturing status as older Datamate variants may be discontinued. Ensure compatibility with mating sockets from the same Datamate L-Tek family. Confirm RoHS compliance requirements match project specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a 26-position vertical SMT header with friction latches is required. Compare against M80-8272642 if lead-free soldering processes are mandatory. Evaluate stack height requirements against available mating socket options. Consider the 2.00mm pitch for density needs versus alternative 1.00mm series if space is extremely limited.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Datamate L-Tek family, designed for high-density interconnects. It complements matching sockets and cable assemblies within the same ecosystem. The part number structure indicates a 26-position, two-row, vertical SMT header with specific contact plating and housing characteristics defined by Harwin's standard coding system.

Replacement Considerations

M80-8272642 serves as a direct functional substitute if lead-free processing is required instead of the tin-lead variant.
