Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific pin count and row configuration against the schematic, as variations exist within the 166087 series. Confirm that the solder eyelet termination method aligns with the target PCB fabrication capabilities. Ensure the green insulation material meets the required environmental standards for the intended deployment environment before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-sided edge connector with closed ends is required for rigid board-to-board connections. The 2.54 mm pitch suits standard industrial and commercial electronics layouts. Consider the solder eyelet requirement for assembly processes, as it differs from press-fit or surface-mount alternatives. Validate that the three-position capacity matches the signal routing needs of the specific application design.
