M80-8872001

Overview

The Harwin M80-8872001 is a Datamate L-Tek series female receptacle connector designed for through-hole board-to-board or wire-to-board applications. It features a 20-position configuration arranged in a double-row, dual-in-line (DIL) format with a 2.00mm (0.079 inch) pin spacing. The contacts are gold-plated to ensure reliable signal transmission and corrosion resistance. The housing is black polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), providing high thermal stability and mechanical strength. This vertical connector utilizes a pin-lock sliding mechanism for secure mating engagement.

Feature Summary

• Double-row DIL female socket design for compact high-density interconnects
• Gold-plated contact surfaces for enhanced conductivity and durability
• Through-hole termination with 3mm PCB tail length for robust mounting
• Pin-lock sliding latch system ensures positive locking during operation

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring high-reliability connections
• Test and measurement equipment interfaces
• Medical device internal wiring harnesses
• Automotive electronics modules

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the official Harwin datasheet to confirm contact plating thickness and housing material variations. Ensure compatibility with the corresponding male header from the Datamate Mix-Tek or L-Tek family. Confirm that the through-hole footprint matches the target PCB design specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, double-row female connector is required for through-hole assembly. The 2.00mm pitch allows for standard trace routing while maintaining high pin count density. Consider the gold plating option if superior contact reliability and oxidation resistance are critical for the operating environment compared to tin-plated alternatives.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate L-Tek family, known for high reliability in harsh environments. The M80 series is widely used in industrial and medical sectors where vibration resistance and long-term connection integrity are paramount. The L-Tek variant specifically offers optimized performance for power and signal applications within the broader Datamate ecosystem.
