Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The M80-8200422 can be substituted with the M80-7820442 based on the following critical parameters that remain constant across both parts:

Pitch - Mating: 0.079" (2.00mm) Number of Positions: 4 Number of Rows: 1 Mounting Type: Through Hole Termination: Solder Shrouding: Shrouded - 4 Wall Fastening Type: Latch Lock Current Rating: 2.2A Voltage Rating: 120V Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 125°C Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0 RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant

The primary distinction between these parts is the connector type designation (Plug vs. Header) and insulation material composition, with the substitute featuring an active product status and improved availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The M80-7820442 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete M80-8200422. Both parts maintain identical electrical specifications, including current rating, voltage rating, and operating temperature range. Both achieve UL94 V-0 flammability compliance and ROHS3 certification.

The M80-7820442 offers the advantage of active product status with higher inventory availability (1390 pieces in stock versus 799 pieces for the obsolete part). The substitute features improved insulation material composition using Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) instead of Polyester, providing enhanced thermal and chemical resistance.

Contact post length differs between the two parts (0.215" versus 0.177"), and mated stacking height options vary slightly. These dimensional differences must be evaluated against specific board layout and mating interface requirements in the target application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can M80-7820442 directly replace M80-8200422 in existing designs?

A: The M80-7820442 maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters required for functional compatibility. However, the contact post length difference (0.215" versus 0.177") and variation in available mated stacking heights require verification against specific PCB layout and connector interface specifications.

Q: What is the significance of the connector type difference (Plug vs. Header)?

A: Both parts are male pin connectors within the Datamate L-Tek series designed for board-to-board or cable applications. The designation difference reflects internal Harwin classification but does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility for standard mating applications.

Q: Why does the substitute use different insulation material?

A: The M80-7820442 uses Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) glass-filled insulation instead of Polyester. PPS provides superior thermal stability and chemical resistance, representing a material upgrade in the active product line.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Both achieve UL94 V-0 flammability rating. No compliance disadvantages exist with the substitute part.

Q: What packaging format is available for the substitute?

A: The M80-7820442 is supplied in tube packaging, whereas the original part packaging specification was not provided. Confirm packaging requirements for your procurement process.
