M80-8820542

Overview

The Harwin M80-8820542 is a Datamate L-Tek series male header connector featuring five positions with a 2.00mm pitch. Designed for power-to-the-board applications, it utilizes a vertical through-hole mounting style with solder termination. The component incorporates high-reliability four-finger beryllium copper contacts and includes an integrated latch mechanism for secure mating. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C and meets UL94 V-0 flammability standards.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a mechanical latch system for positive retention during mating cycles
• Employs four-finger contact technology to ensure reliable electrical connection integrity
• Features a shrouded design providing four-wall shielding for alignment and protection

Applications

• Power distribution modules in industrial equipment
• Embedded systems requiring robust board-to-board connections
• Automotive electronic control units
• General purpose interconnects in harsh environments

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the official Harwin datasheet to confirm pin count, orientation, and plating specifications. Ensure compatibility with the corresponding female socket counterpart within the Datamate L-Tek family. Confirm that the selected variant meets the required current rating and environmental operating conditions for the target application.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a latched, vertical male header is required for power delivery or signal transmission. Consider the 2.00mm pitch and five-position configuration for space-constrained designs. Evaluate the need for the integrated latch feature versus non-latched variants based on vibration resistance requirements and mating cycle expectations.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate L-Tek family, known for its compact size and high reliability. The M80-8820542 specifically addresses applications needing secure, latched connections in a small form factor. It complements other components in the series, such as sockets and cable assemblies, to create complete interconnect solutions.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available. Direct replacement requires identical specifications from the same manufacturer and series.
