M80-8631042

Overview

The Harwin M80-8631042 is a Datamate DIL vertical PC tail plug assembly featuring a friction latch mechanism. It utilizes a 2mm pitch with 10 contacts arranged in a double in-line configuration. The connector supports board-to-board and wire-to-board applications, rated for 120V and 3A. Constructed with phosphor bronze contacts and tin plating, it ensures reliable electrical performance.

Feature Summary

• Friction latched design secures mating connections
• Vertical PCB tail configuration for direct mounting
• Robust construction for demanding environments

Applications

• Automotive control systems
• Industrial equipment interconnections
• High-vibration electronic assemblies

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact plating and housing material against the latest manufacturer datasheet before integration. Confirm that the friction latch mechanism aligns with the mechanical constraints of the target enclosure. Ensure compatibility with corresponding socket counterparts to maintain signal integrity and mechanical stability during operation.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a secure, latched connection is required for vertical PCB mounting. The 2mm pitch allows for dense circuit layouts while maintaining adequate spacing. Consider the tin-plated contacts for general-purpose applications where gold plating is not strictly necessary for corrosion resistance.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Harwin Datamate M80 series, known for high reliability in harsh conditions. The series offers various configurations including wire and board-to-board options. The M80-8631042 specifically addresses needs for robust, vertically mounted connectors with positive locking features.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Harwin Datamate M80 series plugs with matching pin counts and latch types. Verify pitch and orientation compatibility when considering alternative manufacturers' products.
