166087-5

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 166087-5 is a standard edgeboard connector designed for board-to-board applications. It features a dual-loaded configuration with closed ends, providing ten female positions across two rows. The contact pitch is 0.100 inches (2.54 mm). The housing is green, and the contacts are gold-plated. This component utilizes a solder eyelet termination method for secure mounting.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-loaded design with closed ends for structural stability
• Gold-plated contacts ensure reliable signal transmission
• Solder eyelet termination for robust board attachment

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Board-to-board interconnection systems
• High-density electronic assemblies requiring dual-row connectivity
• Industrial control modules utilizing standard edge connectors

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm the exact pin count and termination style. Ensure compatibility with mating card thicknesses and verify that the gold plating specification meets the application's conductivity requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official documentation prior to procurement.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row, ten-position edge connector is required. The 2.54 mm pitch suits general-purpose digital and analog signals. Consider the closed-end design for applications needing defined physical boundaries. Verify that the solder eyelet termination aligns with the manufacturing process capabilities of the target PCB.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the AMP Standard Edge Connectors family from TE Connectivity. These connectors are engineered for high reliability in demanding environments. The series offers various position counts and loading configurations to support diverse board-to-board interface needs within industrial and commercial electronics sectors.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other TE Connectivity AMP Standard Edge Connectors with identical 10-position dual-loaded specifications. Verify that alternative parts maintain the same 0.100-inch pitch and gold contact plating to ensure mechanical and electrical interchangeability without redesigning the host assembly.
