HARWIN M80 Series Straight Through Hole PCB Socket, 20-Contact, 2 Row, 2 mm Pitch, Solder, 120V, 12A, Gold M80-8502045

This connector features a compact 20-contact design, arranged in two rows with a 2 mm pitch, enabling high-density PCB layouts while providing reliable power and signal transmission. Its straight through-hole configuration streamlines soldering and mounting, ensuring a secure, durable connection ideal for environments where vibration, shock, and mechanical stress are routine.

Designed for both harsh conditions and high reliability, the M80-8502045 delivers a current rating of 12A and supports voltages up to 120V. Its contact system leverages gold-plated, four-finger Beryllium Copper for exceptional conductivity, mating cycle longevity, and integrity under repeated mechanical stress. The nylon housing offers physical robustness and insulation performance, while polarised mouldings guarantee correct insertion and support against misalignment or accidental disengagement.

The operating temperature range from -55°C to 125°C enables the socket's use in aerospace, defence, control instrumentation, and rugged industrial electronics. Its female contact gender allows versatile mating with industry equivalents, supporting COTS deployment and interoperability. Compliance with BS9525-F0033, MIL C 55302, and CEC 75101-008 standards attests to its suitability for mission-critical and safety-focused applications.

This socket is particularly effective in scenarios requiring a quick, secure, and vibration-resistant board-to-board interface, such as embedded systems, sensor modules, industrial control boards, and communication assemblies. The solder termination type simplifies manufacturing and ensures a permanent, low-resistance connection.

The M80-8502045's high reliability and durability stem from Harwin's Datamate design, featuring polarised mouldings, four-finger contact clips, and gold plating. These attributes guard against connection degradation during frequent mating cycles and under adverse mechanical loads.

Typical use cases include aerospace electronics, automotive modules, industrial automation controllers, portable instrumentation, and advanced PCB assembly lines. This connector is well suited to laboratories, manufacturing, and commercial electronics that require robust, compact, and reliable connectivity solutions for power, signal, and data transmission.
