VSM-08-20-200-50-04-N1

Overview

The VSM-08-20-200-50-04-N1 is a rectangular MIL-DTL-83513 connector from the AirBorn verSI series. It features an 8-row configuration with 20 columns, providing 160 positions. The connector utilizes a 1.27 mm pitch and employs gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts. Termination is achieved via through-hole mounting with a 0.140-inch tail length. The housing is constructed from liquid crystal polymer (LCP), supporting operation between -55°C and +125°C at 200V.

Feature Summary

• Complies with MIL-DTL-83513 standards for rugged military applications
• Utilizes high-density 1.27 mm pitch for compact board stacking
• Features gold-plated contacts for reliable signal integrity
• Constructed with liquid crystal polymer for thermal stability

Applications

• Avionics control systems
• Spacecraft instrumentation
• Radar and electronic warfare equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix N1 against official datasheets to confirm termination tail length and jacknut compatibility. Ensure the ordering code matches the required row count and column density. Confirm RoHS status and environmental compliance requirements prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high-density vertical interconnects are required within strict MIL-DTL-83513 form factors. Evaluate board thickness constraints against the specified 0.140-inch tail length. Consider the LCP material properties for high-temperature environments exceeding standard thermoplastic limits.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn verSI series, designed for high-reliability vertical male connectors. The series supports various termination styles including press-fit and surface-mount options across multiple row configurations.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other VSM-series variants sharing identical row/column counts but differing in termination style or plating thickness. Verify mechanical interface compatibility before substituting.
