M80-8682022

Overview

The M80-8682022 is a Datamate L-Tek male header connector manufactured by Harwin Inc. It features a dual-row configuration with 20 positions (10+10) and a 2mm pitch. Designed for right-angle through-board mounting, it utilizes 3mm PCB terminations. The connector employs four-finger beryllium copper contact technology to ensure high-reliability connections without signal loss.

Feature Summary

• High-reliability connection integrity via four-finger beryllium copper contact technology
• Fully shrouded contacts with polarized mouldings for secure mating
• Right-angle horizontal orientation suitable for space-constrained board layouts

Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections requiring right-angle routing
• Wire-to-board assemblies utilizing compatible female counterparts
• Industrial control systems demanding robust mechanical retention

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific revision status and RoHS compliance details directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors, as legacy components may have varying environmental declarations. Confirm that mating connectors are selected from the designated female series pages in the official datasheet to ensure proper polarization and mechanical fit. Check for any obsolescence notifications or end-of-life statuses before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a right-angle, dual-row male header with 2mm pitch is required for through-hole assembly. Ensure the mating design accommodates the 3mm tail length and verify that the application environment does not exceed the specified thermal limits. Confirm compatibility with the intended female connector series to guarantee reliable electrical performance and mechanical stability during operation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate L-Tek series, known for its compact size and high-density capabilities. It is designed to mate with specific female connectors detailed in the manufacturer's documentation. The series emphasizes reliability through advanced contact materials and polarized housing designs, making it suitable for demanding electronic applications where vibration resistance and secure connections are critical.

Replacement Considerations

M80-8520642 is listed as a potential replacement option. Verify pin count, row configuration, and termination style compatibility before substitution. Ensure the alternative part meets all mechanical and electrical requirements of the original design specification.
