Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The M80-8430442 is the recommended substitute for the obsolete M80-8430422. Both connectors are manufactured by Harwin Inc. within the Datamate L-Tek series and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters.

The M80-8430442 carries Active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturing support. The substitute part maintains full compliance with UL94 V-0 flammability rating, REACH Unaffected status, and EAR99 export classification, matching the regulatory profile of the original part.

The only parameter variation is the contact finish on the post: the M80-8430422 specifies Tin-Lead, while the M80-8430442 specifies Tin. This change reflects modern manufacturing standards and does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. Both finishes provide equivalent solder joint reliability and current-carrying capacity at the specified 2.2A rating.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can M80-8430442 be used as a direct replacement for M80-8430422 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The M80-8430442 is a direct substitute. All electrical parameters (current rating, voltage rating, operating temperature), mechanical dimensions (pitch, position count, mounting type), and material specifications (insulation material, contact material, flammability rating) are identical. The connector will mate with existing mating connectors and perform identically in circuit applications.

Q: What is the difference between Tin-Lead and Tin contact finish on the post?

A: Both finishes provide equivalent electrical and mechanical performance for solder termination. Tin finish on the M80-8430442 reflects current manufacturing practices and RoHS compliance requirements. The change does not affect solder joint quality, current-carrying capacity, or long-term reliability.

Q: Why is the M80-8430422 classified as Obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence typically reflects manufacturer discontinuation decisions based on market demand and production planning. The M80-8430442 serves as the active replacement within the same Datamate L-Tek series, maintaining full functional and dimensional compatibility.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between these parts?

A: The M80-8430422 packaging information is not specified in the available data. The M80-8430442 is supplied in Tube packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement process.

Q: What certifications and compliance standards apply to both parts?

A: Both connectors meet UL94 V-0 material flammability rating, are REACH Unaffected, and carry EAR99 export classification. Both are classified under HTSUS code 8536.69.4040. Moisture Sensitivity Level is 1 (Unlimited) for both parts.
