302-026-658-201

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 302-026-658-201 is a standard card edge connector from the 302 series, designed for dual-edge non-specified cards. It features 26 positions with a 0.050 inch (1.27mm) contact spacing arranged in two rows. The connector utilizes female contacts with gold flash plating and a black housing. It supports board thicknesses ranging from 0.051 to 0.071 inches (1.30mm to 1.80mm).

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-row configuration with 26 female contacts for reliable signal transmission.
• Gold flash plated contacts ensure durability and low contact resistance.
• Compatible with non-specified dual-edge card types for versatile integration.

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust interconnects.
• Medical equipment utilizing EDAC medical interconnect solutions.
• General electronic assemblies needing standard card edge connections.

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official EDAC documentation to confirm exact contact plating and housing color specifications. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB layout and card thickness requirements before procurement. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current manufacturer datasheets.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1.27mm pitch dual-edge connector is required. The 302 series offers a balance of density and mechanical stability. Consider the gold flash plating for applications demanding high cycle life and corrosion resistance compared to tin-plated alternatives.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 302 series, which specializes in .05 inch (1.27mm) pitch card edge connectors. The series provides various position counts and mounting options. The 302-026-658-201 specifically addresses needs for 26-position dual-edge interfaces in compact form factors.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include 302-026-256-201 or 302-026-356-201, depending on required plating variations. Verify pin count and spacing match exactly. Cross-series replacements require re-evaluation of pitch and mechanical dimensions.
