M80-8530442

Overview

The M80-8530442 is a Datamate L-Tek series PCB header manufactured by Harwin. It features a 4-position (2+2) dual in-line male configuration with a 2mm pitch. Designed for through-hole mounting, this connector operates at 120V and supports up to 3A current. The contacts are made of phosphor bronze with selective gold plating, while the housing utilizes PPS material. It functions as a board-to-board or wire-to-board interface, offering a vertical orientation with a 3mm tail pin length and an integrated latch mechanism.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a mechanical latch system for secure mating engagement
• Utilizes selective gold plating on phosphor bronze contacts for reliable conductivity
• Employs PPS housing material for structural stability and thermal resistance

Applications

• Compact electronic systems requiring dense PCB packaging
• Board-to-board interconnection applications
• Wire-to-board connection setups

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Harwin documentation to ensure correct pin count, orientation, and termination style. Confirm that the selected variant matches the required voltage and current ratings for the target application. Cross-reference datasheet specifications regarding operating temperature ranges and environmental compliance requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when space-constrained designs require a high-reliability 2mm pitch connector. The latched design ensures robust physical retention compared to non-latched variants. Ensure the vertical form factor aligns with the assembly layout and that the 3A current rating meets the circuit demands. Verify compatibility with corresponding Datamate L-Tek sockets for proper mating.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate L-Tek family, known for high-reliability rectangular connectors. The M80-8530442 represents a compact 4-pin configuration within this series. It is designed for applications demanding secure connections in dense electronic environments, distinguishing itself through its latching mechanism and durable construction materials suitable for rigorous operational conditions.

Replacement Considerations

M80-8530445 is a related variant within the same series but may differ in specific configuration details such as latch presence or terminal type. Verify exact dimensional and electrical compatibility before substitution. No other direct substitute part numbers are confirmed in the provided public documentation.
