145376-3

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 145376-3 is a standard card edge connector designed for AGP applications. It features a dual row configuration with 132 positions, providing a total of 66 contacts per side. The connector utilizes a 0.039 inch (1.00mm) pitch and accepts board thicknesses ranging from 0.054 to 0.071 inches. Constructed with phosphor bronze contacts finished with 15.0 microinch gold plating, it ensures reliable signal transmission. The housing is made of thermoplastic material in brown color. This component supports through-hole termination and operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 85°C.
