M80-8400542

Overview

The M80-8400542 is a Datamate L-Tek series PCB receptacle connector manufactured by Harwin Inc. It features a 5-position, single-row female socket configuration with a 2.00mm (0.079 inch) mating pitch. Designed for through-hole vertical mounting, the connector utilizes phosphor bronze contacts with gold plating on the mating interface and tin plating on the tail. The housing is constructed from black, glass-filled polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) rated UL94 V-0. Electrical ratings include 120V and 2.2A, supporting an operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

Feature Summary

• Datamate L-Tek series construction providing high mechanical reliability with shock, bump, and vibration resistance.
• Vertical through-board termination design with 3.2mm PC tail length for secure PCB mounting.
• Gold-plated contact surfaces ensure reliable signal transmission in demanding environments.
• Integrated stress relief clip and four-wall shielding for enhanced cable protection and EMI mitigation.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust interconnects
• Automotive electronics subject to high vibration
• Medical equipment needing reliable signal integrity
• Test and measurement instrumentation

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order matches the Datamate L-Tek series designation and 5-position count. Confirm the vertical orientation and through-hole termination style align with the PCB layout requirements. Ensure the voltage and current ratings meet the application's electrical demands. Check for any specific packaging or reel requirements if applicable to the manufacturing process.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, single-row female header is required for board-to-wire or board-to-board connections. The 2.00mm pitch offers a balance between density and spacing. Consider the environmental rating and mechanical locking features for applications involving movement or harsh conditions. Ensure compatibility with the corresponding male pin headers from the same Datamate family.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate L-Tek family, known for its high-reliability performance in challenging environments. The series supports various configurations including straight and right-angle options. The M80-8400542 specifically addresses needs for vertical mounting with a compact footprint. It is designed to work seamlessly with other components in the Datamate ecosystem.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible counterparts include M80-8400545 and M80-8970501 from Harwin. Verify pin count, pitch, and orientation before substitution. Ensure the replacement maintains the same electrical ratings and mechanical locking characteristics for system integrity.
