M83513/13-C02NP

Overview

The M83513/13-C02NP is a D-Sub MIL Spec connector from the AirBorn M Series, manufactured by Molex. It features contacts on 0.050-inch (1.27mm) centers and offers nine to 128 contact options. The component is designed for high reliability in demanding environments, with space-grade variants available that meet NASA outgassing requirements.

Feature Summary

• MIL-DTL-83513 compliant micro-D interconnect system
• High-density contact arrangement on 0.050-inch pitch
• Space-grade options meeting NASA outgassing standards

Applications

• Military aerospace systems
• Satellite communication equipment
• Ruggedized industrial control interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet revision and environmental qualification status directly with Molex or authorized distributors. Confirm that the selected variant meets all necessary NASA outgassing requirements if intended for space applications. Ensure compatibility with mating connectors within the M Series family.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a MIL-DTL-83513 form factor is required with high pin count density. Evaluate the need for space-grade certification based on mission parameters. Consider the physical size constraints imposed by the 0.050-inch pitch design compared to standard D-Sub connectors.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn M Series, which provides various I/O configurations including straight, right-angle, and connector saver models. The series supports one-, two-, three-, and four-row options, allowing for flexible circuit density management in compact enclosures.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes are limited due to the specific MIL-DTL-83513 designation. Verify cross-references only through official Molex documentation. Generic D-Sub connectors do not offer equivalent performance or form factor compliance.
