302-080-658-201

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 302-080-658-201 is a standard card edge connector from the 302 series, designed for dual-edge non-specified cards. It features 80 positions with a 0.050 inch (1.27mm) contact spacing and gold flash plated contacts. The housing is black polyamide (PA66), supporting board thicknesses of 0.051 to 0.071 inches (1.30mm to 1.80mm). This female connector utilizes cantilever contacts and solder termination, operating within a temperature range of -55°C to +85°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-row configuration with 80 gold-plated cantilever contacts for reliable signal transmission
• Compatible with double-sided card edge boards within specified thickness tolerances
• Constructed with black PA66 insulation material for durability and stability

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring high-density interconnects
• Medical equipment internal circuit board connections
• Telecommunications infrastructure modules
• Consumer electronics mainboard interfaces

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify specific supply chain availability through authorized distributors, as stock levels may vary by region. Confirm that the ordering suffix matches the required contact plating and housing style specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprint designs before finalizing procurement orders to avoid integration issues.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-pin-count interface is required for double-sided cards. The 1.27mm pitch allows for dense routing while maintaining mechanical stability. Consider the -55°C to +85°C operating range for environmental suitability. Verify that the target application does not require right-angle mounting, as this model is designed for straight-through installation.

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 offers various position counts to accommodate different I/O requirements. The 302-080-658-201 represents a high-channel count option within this family, utilizing standard gold flash plating for corrosion resistance and low contact resistance.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include other 302-series variants with different pin counts, such as the 302-026-658-201 or 302-012-256-201, provided the pin count difference is acceptable. Cross-series replacements like the 357 or 833 series are not direct equivalents due to differing pitch dimensions and mechanical profiles.
