M80-8541042

Overview

The M80-8541042 is a Datamate L-Tek series PCB header manufactured by Harwin. It features a vertical, double in-line (DIL) male configuration with 10 contacts arranged in two rows of five. The connector utilizes a 2 mm pitch and is designed for through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards. Electrical specifications include a rated current of 3 A and a voltage rating of 120 V. The contacts are made of phosphor bronze with selective gold plating to ensure reliable conductivity. The housing is constructed from PPS material, providing thermal stability within an operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Datamate L-Tek high-reliability interconnect system
• Vertical DIL male pin header design
• Selective gold contact plating for corrosion resistance
• Through-hole termination for secure PCB attachment

Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Wire-to-board connections
• Industrial control systems requiring robust connectivity
• Test and measurement equipment interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number against official Harwin documentation to confirm contact count and orientation. Ensure compatibility with mating sockets from the same Datamate L-Tek family. Check for any updated environmental compliance certifications required for your region before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, unlatched male header is required for high-density applications. The 2 mm pitch allows for compact board layouts while maintaining adequate spacing. Consider the 3 A current rating and 120 V voltage limit to ensure safe operation within the target circuit parameters.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Datamate L-Tek family, known for its latching mechanism and high reliability. While this specific item is an unlatched male header, it mates with corresponding female sockets in the same series. The product line supports various configurations including latches and jackscrews for enhanced mechanical security.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 2 mm pitch, 10-pin DIL configuration, and vertical orientation. Verify that alternative headers support the same 3 A current rating and operate within the -55°C to +125°C temperature range. Ensure mating compatibility with existing Datamate L-Tek female connectors.
