302-030-256-201

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 302-030-256-201 is a standard card edge connector from the 302 series, designed for dual-edge PCB applications. It features 30 positions with a 0.050 inch (1.27mm) contact spacing and gold flash plated contacts. The housing is black, constructed from polyamide (PA66), and supports board thicknesses between 0.051 and 0.071 inches. This female connector utilizes a straddle mount installation method with solder termination.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-row configuration with extender board tails for secure mounting
• Gold flash plated contacts ensure reliable signal transmission
• Polyamide insulation provides structural stability and thermal resistance

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust interconnects
• Medical equipment interfaces
• General-purpose electronic circuit boards

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify that the target application requires a dual-edge card connector with a 1.27mm pitch. Confirm the PCB thickness falls within the specified 0.051 to 0.071 inch range. Ensure the design accommodates the straddle mount style and solder termination type. Check regional availability as supply may be restricted in certain locations.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density connection with 30 positions is needed on a dual-edge board. The 0.050-inch spacing allows for compact layouts. Consider the black polyamide housing for environmental protection. Verify compatibility with existing PCB fabrication capabilities for the required thickness and mounting style.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 302 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts while maintaining consistent 0.050-inch spacing. The 302-030-256-201 specifically addresses needs for moderate pin counts in dual-edge configurations, balancing density with mechanical stability.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other EDAC 302 series parts with matching 30-position counts and 1.27mm pitch, such as 302-006-256-201 or 302-012-256-201, provided they meet the specific row and tail requirements.
