Samtec ERM8 Series Vertical Surface PCB Header, 80 Contacts, 0.8 mm Pitch, 2 Row, Shrouded ERM8

Samtec ERM8 Series Vertical Surface PCB Header ERM8 is a high-quality, board-mounted connector designed for demanding electronic applications requiring reliable and high-speed connections. It features 80 male contacts arranged in 2 rows with a 0.8 mm pitch, optimized for efficient space utilization and high-density PCB designs.

The housing is made from liquid crystal polymer, offering excellent mechanical strength and insulation properties. The connector system is board-to-board type with a vertical orientation, facilitating easy mounting on printed circuit boards via surface mount technology.

Contacts are manufactured using phosphor bronze with 0.25 μm gold plating, providing excellent electrical conductivity and resistance against wear and corrosion, thereby extending connector life. The shrouded design protects the contacts and ensures secure mating, which is critical for high reliability in industrial, telecommunications, and electronic equipment assemblies.

The ERM8 supports a voltage rating of 318V and a current rating of 1.4A, suitable for a wide range of electronics applications. Operating temperature range from -55°C to +125°C makes it durable in harsh environments. Its Edge Rate contact system enables high mating cycles and supports data transmission rates of up to 56Gbps PAM4, catering to high-speed data communication needs.

This vertical PCB header is ideal for system-level interconnections in industrial and electronic manufacturing. Robust liquid crystal polymer housing ensures longevity and electrical insulation. Gold plated phosphor bronze contacts enhance corrosion resistance while maintaining low electrical resistance.

Shrouded design offers protection and secure insertion during assembly processes. Supports surface mount PCB technology with a compact 0.8 mm pitch for high density. Wide operating temperature range suits various industrial climate conditions.

Compatible with high-speed data transmission standards. Solder termination assures strong and reliable electrical connections.
