302-014-258-201

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 302-014-258-201 is a standard card edge connector from the 302 series, designed for dual-edge board applications. It features 14 positions with a female contact type and a 0.050-inch (1.27mm) spacing. The connector utilizes gold flash-plated contacts made of copper alloy housed in black polyamide (PA66). It supports board thicknesses between 0.051 and 0.071 inches and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 85°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge configuration with cantilever spring contacts for secure mating
• Gold flash plating on copper alloy contacts ensures reliable conductivity
• Polyamide insulation housing provides structural stability and thermal resistance

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system interconnections
• Telecommunications equipment backplanes
• Consumer electronics module interfaces

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify that the target PCB design accommodates the specified 0.051 to 0.071 inch card thickness range. Confirm compatibility with the 0.050 inch contact spacing to ensure proper alignment during assembly. Check RoHS3 compliance requirements against project specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-edge female connector with 14 positions is required. Ensure the application environment stays within the -55°C to 85°C operating temperature limits. Verify that the mating card material and dimensions align with the specified tolerance ranges for optimal mechanical engagement.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 302 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and spacing options. The 302-014 variant specifically addresses needs for moderate density connections requiring robust mechanical retention through its cantilever contact design.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other EDAC 302 series parts sharing identical 0.050 inch spacing and dual-edge female configurations. Verify pin count and housing color consistency if visual identification is critical for assembly processes.
