M80-8630845

Overview

The M80-8630845 is a male connector from the Harwin Datamate L-Tek series, designed for board-to-board applications. It features a dual in-line configuration with 16 positions arranged in two rows of eight contacts each. The connector utilizes a 2.00 mm pitch and employs surface-mount termination for secure PCB attachment. Contacts are gold-plated to ensure reliable signal transmission. The housing is constructed from black polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), providing thermal stability and mechanical strength.

Feature Summary

• Dual row DIL male contact configuration for high-density interconnects
• Surface mount termination style for automated assembly processes
• Gold-plated contacts for enhanced conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Polyphenylene sulfide housing material for robust environmental performance

Applications

• Industrial control system interconnections
• Telecommunications equipment backplanes
• Medical device internal circuitry
• Automotive electronic module connections

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet revision and RoHS compliance status prior to ordering. Confirm that the surface-mount footprint matches the target PCB design. Ensure compatibility with mating female receptacles within the same Datamate L-Tek family. Check for any obsolescence notifications or end-of-life declarations from the manufacturer before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a male header with surface-mount termination is required for space-constrained designs. The 2.00 mm pitch allows for dense pin arrangements while maintaining adequate spacing. Consider the operating temperature range and current carrying capacity requirements against the connector specifications. Ensure the mating connector type aligns with the system architecture needs.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate L-Tek family, known for high-reliability interconnect solutions. The series offers various configurations including cable and board-to-board options. The M80-8630845 specifically addresses the need for robust male headers in compact electronic assemblies. It complements other components in the Harwin ecosystem for complete connectivity systems.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available for this specific model. Evaluate compatible alternatives within the Datamate L-Tek series that match the pin count and termination style. Verify dimensional and electrical equivalence if considering cross-brand replacements.
