Narrow profile hi-rel Datamate from Harwin fits into small spaces

Harwin, the leading hi-rel connector and SMT board hardware manufacturer, has expanded its range of Datamate high reliability connectors with the new L-Tek Single-in-line (SIL) male crimp contact connector. The SIL design provides a narrow profile which enables the connector to fit into small spaces. The low weight of the product makes it ideal for use in airborne and portable applications.

Available with 2 to 7 contacts for use with either 24 - 28 AWG or 22 AWG wires, Datamate

L-Tek SIL male crimp contact connectors complement the L-Tek product family and enable SIL cable to cable and cable to board configurations. The devices mate with the existing L-Tek SIL female cable connector M80-898 & M80-899 series (cable to cable) and the L-Tek SIL female vertical PCB connector M80-840 & M80-790 series (cable to PCB).

With the SIL design, design engineers will be able to choose the exact number of ways between 2 and 7 ways, including odd numbers. This is not the case with a Dual-in-line (DIL) design, which offers even numbers of ways only i.e. 2, 4, 6, 8 etc .

Datamate L-Tek SIL male crimp contact connectors feature gold plated contacts and are available in unlatched, latched or friction latch versions. The components have been designed to withstand high vibrations, shocks and extreme temperatures. They are suitable for use on equipment designed for working in the aerospace, industrial, military and medical markets.
