302-030-621-201

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 302-030-621-201 is a standard card edge connector from the 302 series, designed for dual-edge non-specified circuit boards. It features 30 positions with a 0.050 inch (1.27mm) contact spacing arranged in two rows. The connector utilizes gold-plated contacts and is housed in black polyamide (PA66/nylon 6/6). It supports board thicknesses ranging from 0.051 to 0.071 inches (1.30mm to 1.80mm) and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +85°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-row configuration with 30 gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transmission
• Compatible with dual-edge non-specified card types and standard PCB thicknesses
• Constructed with durable black polyamide housing for thermal stability

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust interconnects
• Medical equipment internal module connections
• Communication infrastructure hardware
• Consumer electronics board-to-board interfaces

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to ensure the correct contact plating and housing material match the design requirements. Confirm that the target printed circuit board thickness falls within the specified 1.30mm to 1.80mm range to guarantee proper mechanical engagement. Check for RoHS compliance documentation if environmental regulations apply to the final assembly. Ensure the dual-edge card specification aligns with the connector's non-specified card type designation.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density connection with 1.27mm pitch is required for dual-edge cards. The 30-position count suits moderate I/O applications. Consider the -55°C to +85°C operating range for environmental suitability. The gold flash plating offers corrosion resistance for repeated mating cycles. Verify that the vertical mounting style fits the enclosure constraints compared to other series options.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 302 series, which specializes in standard card edge connectors with fine 0.050-inch spacing. The series is widely used across medical, industrial, and communication sectors for its reliability and compact form factor. EDAC provides extensive customization options within this family, but this specific model represents a standard configuration optimized for general-purpose dual-edge applications.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other EDAC 302 series variants with different pin counts, such as 302-012-256-201 or 302-020-621-201, provided the pin count difference is acceptable. Cross-brand replacements require matching the 1.27mm pitch, dual-row layout, and compatible board thickness specifications.
