Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution between M80-5201005 and M80-5201042 is valid based on the following critical parameters remaining identical:

• Connector type, contact type, and gender (Header, Male Pin)
• Position count and row configuration (10 positions, 2 rows)
• Mating pitch and row spacing (0.079" / 2.00mm)
• Mounting method and termination (Through Hole, Solder)
• Shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Fastening mechanism (Push-Pull)
• Contact material (Phosphor Bronze)
• Insulation material (Polyphenylene Sulfide, Glass Filled)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Current rating (2.2A)
• Flammability and compliance certifications (UL94 V-0, ROHS3, REACH Unaffected)

The primary distinction between these parts lies in contact finish specifications and product status, which do not affect mechanical or electrical interchangeability for standard applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

M80-5201042 is the active equivalent for M80-5201005. The substitute part maintains full mechanical and electrical compatibility across all critical parameters including pitch, position count, mounting configuration, and thermal operating range. Both components carry identical compliance certifications (ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, UL94 V-0).

The M80-5201042 is recommended for new designs and ongoing production due to its active product status and superior inventory availability. The obsolete status of M80-5201005 indicates discontinuation by the manufacturer, making M80-5201042 the appropriate long-term solution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can M80-5201042 directly replace M80-5201005 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical mechanical dimensions, pitch specifications, mounting methods, and electrical ratings. The connector headers are mechanically and electrically interchangeable for standard applications.

Q: What is the difference in contact finish between these parts?

A: M80-5201005 features gold plating on both mating and post contacts. M80-5201042 maintains gold plating on mating contacts but uses tin plating on post contacts. This difference does not affect interchangeability for solder termination applications.

Q: Why does M80-5201042 show a lower voltage rating?

A: M80-5201042 is rated at 120V while M80-5201005 is rated at 800VAC/DC. Both parts maintain the same 2.2A current rating and are suitable for their respective voltage applications. Application voltage requirements should determine which part is appropriate.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: M80-5201005 packaging is not specified. M80-5201042 is supplied in tube packaging, which is standard for production quantities.

Q: What is the product status significance?

A: M80-5201005 is classified as obsolete, indicating manufacturer discontinuation. M80-5201042 maintains active status with ongoing manufacturing and support. For new designs and long-term availability, M80-5201042 is the appropriate selection.
