2336568-5

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 2336568-5 is a dual-edge female card edge connector assembly. It features 168 positions with a pitch of 0.024 inches (0.60 mm). The contacts are gold-plated copper alloy, and the housing is constructed from black liquid crystal polymer (LCP). Designed for surface mount installation at a right angle, it supports a maximum operating temperature of +85°C and a minimum of -55°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge configuration for high-density signal routing
• Gold-plated contacts ensure reliable conductivity
• Liquid crystal polymer housing provides thermal stability

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• High-density electronic assemblies
• Industrial control systems
• Telecommunications equipment

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm contact plating thickness and housing color variations. Ensure compatibility with standard SMT reflow profiles for LCP materials. Confirm that the right-angle orientation matches the PCB layout requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-pin-count, dual-edge interface is required for compact designs. Consider the 0.60 mm pitch constraint for trace spacing. Evaluate the right-angle mounting style against board space limitations and mating connector height requirements.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This connector belongs to the standard card edge connector family manufactured by TE Connectivity. It serves as a robust interconnection solution for applications requiring durable, high-reliability connections between circuit boards and backplanes or peripheral modules in demanding environments.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult official TE Connectivity substitution guides for verified cross-reference part numbers. Generic equivalents may not match the precise 0.60 mm pitch or LCP material specifications required for proper fit and function.
