M80-8691022

Overview

The M80-8691022 is a 10-position rectangular connector header from the Datamate L-Tek series by Harwin Inc. It features a dual in-line (DIL) configuration with two rows of five contacts each. The connector utilizes male pin contacts with a 2.00mm (0.079 inch) pitch, designed for through-hole termination on printed circuit boards. Rated for 3A current and 120V voltage, it employs tin-plated phosphor bronze contacts housed in black polyester. The unit is unshrouded and unlatched, intended for vertical board mounting applications requiring reliable electrical interconnection.

Feature Summary

• Dual in-line male pin configuration for secure board-to-board or wire-to-board connections
• Through-hole termination method ensures stable mechanical attachment to PCBs
• Unlatched design allows for flexible integration without locking mechanisms
• Tin-plated contacts provide corrosion resistance and reliable conductivity

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust signal transmission
• Consumer electronics assemblies needing compact vertical headers
• Test and measurement equipment interfaces
• Automotive electronic modules with standard voltage requirements

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order matches the Datamate L-Tek series designation and 10-pin count. Confirm the tin plating finish aligns with environmental compliance requirements if lead-free standards are mandatory. Ensure the through-hole footprint on the target PCB matches the 2.00mm pitch dimensions. Check for any RoHS or REACH compliance documentation required by the end-user industry regulations before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, unlatched male header is required for vertical PCB mounting. The 2.00mm pitch suits applications where space efficiency is balanced with ease of assembly. Consider the 3A current rating for power distribution or high-current signal lines. The polyester housing offers adequate thermal stability for standard operating environments. Compare against shrouded variants if dust protection or alignment guides are necessary for the specific assembly process.

Part Context

This part belongs to Harwin’s Datamate L-Tek family, known for compact rectangular connectors. It complements mating sockets and cable assemblies within the same series. The M80 prefix indicates its classification within Harwin’s broader interconnect portfolio. It serves as a standard solution for general-purpose electronic interconnections where reliability and moderate current carrying capacity are prioritized over high-speed data transmission capabilities.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 10-position DIL layout, 2.00mm pitch, and male pin configuration. Verify that alternative manufacturers offer identical through-hole termination and tin plating. Ensure the housing material and color meet aesthetic or regulatory constraints. Cross-reference mating parts to guarantee compatibility with existing socket assemblies in the design.
