Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the official Molex datasheet to confirm terminal plating thickness and material specifications. Ensure that the selected variant matches the required PCB thickness tolerance of 1.57mm. Cross-reference the RoHS compliance status with the latest product specification document before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this connector when a vertical, dual-sided edge interface is required for high-frequency applications. The 0.60mm pitch allows for compact layout designs. Ensure the mating card meets the specified mechanical tolerances for sliver edge connectors. Confirm that the operating environment remains within the -55°C to +85°C range to maintain performance reliability.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the Molex 206653 series, which focuses on sliver edge card connectors. The series is engineered for demanding environments requiring robust electrical connections. The 2066530056 variant specifically addresses the need for 56-circuit capacity in a low-profile vertical form factor, suitable for modern electronic assemblies.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Direct replacement requires matching the 0.60mm pitch, 56-position dual-side configuration, and vertical mounting style. Verify mechanical footprint compatibility with the existing PCB design.
