M80-5T12022MC

Introduction

The M80-5T12022MC is a type of rectangular connector that is typically used in many electrical/electronic applications, ranging from consumer appliances to industrial machinery. It is designated as a header, male pins connector, and comes in a variety of styles and sizes near the 5mm terminal pitch area. This article aims at providing an overview of the M80-5T12022MC, its typical applications and working principle.

Application Field

M80-5T12022MC is a multipurpose, high-density, medium-density single row right angle male pin socket header. It is suited for a wide range of applications which require high density connections where even a smaller terminal pitch is needed. In addition, its unique design provides robustness and flexibility for wiring. It has been widely used in consumer electronic applications, including LED lighting systems, home appliances, automotive electronics, Point-of-Sale (POS) systems and many other industrial applications.

The M80-5T12022MC is also highly suitable for wire-to-terminal board connections, thanks to its low profile yet durable construction. It enables a very compact PCB footprint with an optimized distance between board connections. And due to its long and durable gold-plated tail contacts, it is also excellent for use in harsh environments.

Working Principle

M80-5T12022MC is designed with a slotted terminal design. This makes it compatible for mating with 0.64 or 1.27mm pitch male pin receptacles. The male pins are inserted into printed circuit board (PCB) with a high degree of accuracy, resulting in a secure connection between the two contacts. In addition, the terminal contacts are deep enough for positive contact retention.

The slotted terminal design also helps ensure ruggedness in the M80-5T12022MC by providing increased contact durability and wear resistance. This allows for long-term reliable and secure connections, even in high vibration and harsh environmental conditions. With its highly reliable electrical and mechanical stability, the M80-5T12022MC is well-suited for harsh environment applications.

Conclusion

In summary, the M80-5T12022MC is a powerful, multifunctional rectangular connector suited for a wide range of electrical/electronic applications. It can easily be mated with 0.64 or 1.27mm pitch male pin receptacles and provides great reliability even in harsh environmental conditions due to its unique slotted terminal design. As a result, this type of connector has become highly popular across various industries and applications.
