M80-8770722

Overview

The M80-8770722 is a Datamate L-Tek series header connector manufactured by Harwin Inc. It features a vertical, single-in-line (SIL) configuration with seven male pin contacts. The connector utilizes a 2.00mm pitch and is designed for through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards. The housing is black, constructed from PPS material, and includes a latching mechanism for secure mating. Contact plating is tin, suitable for general electronic applications.

Feature Summary

• Vertical single-in-line male pin assembly
• Integrated latching mechanism for secure connection
• Through-hole termination style
• Tin-plated phosphor bronze contacts

Applications

• General electronic interconnects
• Industrial control systems
• Consumer electronics assemblies
• Board-to-board connections

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version to confirm current RoHS compliance status and lead times. Ensure compatibility with mating sockets in the same Datamate L-Tek family. Check for any recent obsolescence notices or alternative part recommendations from the manufacturer before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, latched header is required for space-constrained designs. The 7-position count fits specific signal routing needs. Verify that the tin plating meets environmental requirements and that the through-hole footprint aligns with the PCB layout constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate L-Tek family, known for high-reliability connectors using beryllium copper contact technology. The M80-8770722 specifically addresses the need for a compact, vertically oriented header with positive locking features, distinguishing it from non-latched or right-angle variants within the broader product line.

Replacement Considerations

M80-8520642 is listed as a potential replacement for similar 6-position variants, but direct substitution requires verifying pin count and latch orientation compatibility.
