M80-9260722 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The M80-9260722 is a surface mount rectangular connector header manufactured by Harwin Inc., part of the Datamate L-Tek series. This 7-position, 2-row connector with 2.00mm pitch is designed for board-to-board or cable applications. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute parts essential for ongoing system support, design updates, and component procurement.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the M80-9260722 are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional compatibility:

Primary Matching Criteria:

• Manufacturer: Harwin Inc. (same manufacturer ensures design compatibility within the Datamate L-Tek series)
• Pitch - Mating: 0.079" (2.00mm) (mechanical and electrical interface standard)
• Contact Type: Male Pin (functional role in mating pair)
• Current Rating: 2.2A (electrical capacity)
• Voltage Rating: 800V (electrical specification)
• Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 125°C (environmental operating range)
• Shrouding: Shrouded - 4 Wall (mechanical protection and alignment)
• Termination: Solder (assembly method)
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze (electrical and mechanical properties)
• Insulation Material: Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS), Glass Filled (material specification)

Secondary Considerations:

• Number of Positions and Rows (application-specific requirement)
• Mounting Type (Surface Mount vs. Through Hole affects PCB integration)
• Product Status (Active vs. Obsolete affects long-term availability)

The two substitute parts differ in specific design aspects: M80-8260842 increases position count to 8 while maintaining 2-row surface mount configuration; M80-8520742 maintains 7 positions but uses through-hole mounting with single-row configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

M80-8260842 Selection Criteria: This substitute is appropriate when the application requires surface mount assembly and can accommodate an 8-position connector in place of the 7-position M80-9260722. Both maintain identical 2-row configuration, pitch, and electrical ratings. M80-8260842 is currently in active production status with 1538 units in stock, ensuring long-term availability. The connector type designation differs (Plug vs. Header), but both are part of the same Datamate L-Tek series and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Contact finish on the post changes from Tin-Lead to Tin, which is compliant with RoHS3 requirements.

M80-8520742 Selection Criteria: This substitute is appropriate when the application can transition from surface mount to through-hole assembly. It maintains the 7-position count and identical electrical specifications as the main part. The primary difference is the single-row through-hole configuration versus the 2-row surface mount design. M80-8520742 is in active production with 960 units in stock. This option is suitable for designs where PCB layout permits through-hole mounting and where the single-row footprint is compatible with the application.

Both substitutes maintain compliance with RoHS3, REACH Unaffected status, and identical operating temperature ranges. Selection between substitutes depends on PCB assembly method (surface mount vs. through-hole) and position count requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can M80-8260842 directly replace M80-9260722 in existing designs? A: Direct replacement requires PCB layout compatibility. Both are surface mount connectors with identical pitch (2.00mm), electrical ratings (2.2A, 800V), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C). The primary difference is position count: M80-8260842 has 8 positions versus 7 positions in M80-9260722. PCB footprint and connector routing must accommodate the additional position.

Q: What is the key difference between M80-8260842 and M80-8520742? A: The primary differences are mounting type and row configuration. M80-8260842 is surface mount with 2 rows and 8 positions. M80-8520742 is through-hole with 1 row and 7 positions. Both share identical pitch (2.00mm), electrical ratings, and operating temperature. Selection depends on whether the application uses surface mount or through-hole PCB assembly.

Q: Are all three connectors compatible with the same mating connectors? A: Compatibility depends on the mating connector design. All three share the same 2.00mm pitch and male pin contact type within the Datamate L-Tek series. However, the number of positions and row configuration must match the corresponding receptacle or socket connector in the application.

Q: What is the significance of the product status change from Obsolete to Active? A: M80-9260722 is obsolete, meaning Harwin Inc. no longer manufactures this part. Both substitute parts (M80-8260842 and M80-8520742) are in active production, ensuring continued availability for new designs and component replenishment. Active status provides long-term supply chain stability.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the main part and substitutes? A: All three parts are ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, and carry UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Moisture Sensitivity Level is 1 (Unlimited) for all parts. The contact finish on the post differs: M80-9260722 uses Tin-Lead, while both substitutes use Tin. Tin finish is compliant with RoHS3 requirements.

Q: What is the significance of the Datamate L-Tek series designation? A: The Datamate L-Tek series is a product family from Harwin Inc. that shares common electrical and mechanical specifications. All three connectors belong to this series, ensuring design compatibility within the family. The series designation indicates standardized pitch (2.00mm), contact materials (Phosphor Bronze), and insulation materials (PPS, Glass Filled).
