M80-8282022P

Overview

The M80-8282022P is a Datamate L-Tek series header connector manufactured by Harwin. It features a surface mount design with 20 positions arranged in a single row. The connector utilizes a 2.00 mm (0.079 inch) pitch and includes male pins for mating with corresponding female housings. This component belongs to the high-reliability Datamate family, designed for secure interconnections in demanding environments.

Feature Summary

• Surface mount technology for automated PCB assembly
• Male pin configuration for reliable signal transmission
• Shrouded contact design to ensure correct mating alignment

Applications

• Aviation electronic systems
• Defense communication equipment
• Industrial control modules
• Medical diagnostic devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'P' against official datasheets to confirm plating or material specifications, as suffixes often denote critical variations. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly from the manufacturer's documentation. Ensure compatibility with mating female connectors within the same Datamate L-Tek series before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this part when a low-profile, surface-mounted male header is required for 20-position connections. The 2.00 mm pitch offers a balance between density and spacing. Consider the L-Tek series for its robust latch mechanisms if mechanical retention during vibration is necessary. Verify that the board layout supports the specific footprint requirements of this SMT package.

Part Context

This component is part of the Datamate M80 series, a high-reliability connector system known for durability in harsh conditions. The L-Tek sub-series specifically integrates locking latches to prevent accidental disconnection. It is widely used in sectors requiring stringent reliability standards, such as aerospace and defense, where connection integrity under stress is paramount.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 20-position count, 2.00 mm pitch, and surface mount orientation. Check for identical shrouding and male pin configurations. Cross-reference with other Harwin Datamate L-Tek variants to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility. Generic equivalents may lack the specific latch reliability of the original design.
