M80-8541045

Overview

The M80-8541045 is a Datamate L-Tek series header connector manufactured by Harwin. It features a 10-position configuration arranged in a dual in-line (DIL) layout with a 2mm pitch. The component utilizes vertical through-hole solder termination for PCB mounting. Electrical specifications include a current rating of 2.2A and a voltage rating of 120V. The contacts are gold-plated beryllium copper, housed in polyamide insulation. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Features a four-finger contact structure designed to maintain connection integrity under high vibration and shock conditions.
• Includes an integrated latch mechanism to secure mating connections and prevent accidental disengagement.
• Utilizes gold-plated contacts on beryllium copper substrates to ensure reliable signal transmission.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust mechanical stability
• Automotive electronics exposed to high vibration environments
• Medical devices demanding reliable interconnects
• Harsh environment instrumentation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact finish and latch status against the official datasheet before procurement. Confirm that the polyamide insulator material meets the thermal requirements of the target application. Ensure the vertical orientation and through-hole termination method align with the PCB design constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this part when a latched, vertical male header is required for board-to-board or wire-to-board connections. The 2mm pitch and 10-position count define the spatial footprint. Consider the 2.2A current rating for power distribution needs. Verify compatibility with the corresponding female receptacle from the same Datamate L-Tek family.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Harwin Datamate L-Tek family, which is engineered for high-reliability applications. The series is characterized by its durability in extreme conditions, including high acceleration and shock. The M80-8541045 specifically represents the male pin variant with vertical orientation and latching capability.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 2mm pitch, 10-position DIL layout, vertical through-hole termination, and latching feature. Verify that any alternative maintains the same electrical ratings and environmental operating limits.
