Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix and revision level against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to ensure compatibility with current production requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times directly with authorized distributors, as availability may vary based on manufacturing cycles and regional stock levels.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-pin-count, low-profile edge connector is required for PCI Express applications. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the 1.00mm pitch and surface-mount footprint. Verify that the mating card thickness and insertion force requirements align with the connector's mechanical specifications for reliable engagement.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the AMP CT or similar high-performance interconnect series from TE Connectivity, designed for demanding electronic environments. It represents a specialized solution for board-to-board or edge-card connections where space constraints and signal integrity are critical factors in system design.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

No direct public substitute part numbers are confirmed for this specific model. Evaluate generic edge connectors with matching 1.00mm pitch and 98-position counts only if pinout and mechanical dimensions are identical. Consult TE Connectivity for official obsolescence notices or recommended upgrades.
