305-014-520-268

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-014-520-268 is a standard card edge connector featuring 14 positions arranged in a dual row configuration. It utilizes a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) contact spacing and accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 1.57 mm. The component employs vertical panel mounting with solder pin termination. Electrical specifications include a current rating of 5 A and an insulation resistance of 5 GOhms. The contacts are constructed from copper alloy with gold plating, while the housing is made of thermoplastic material.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-sided female connector design for reliable board insertion
• Low profile insulator body construction
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts for conductivity
• Vertical panel mount installation style

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust interconnects
• Communication equipment backplanes
• Medical device internal circuitry
• Consumer electronics mainboards

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official EDAC documentation to ensure correct contact spacing and board thickness compatibility. Confirm RoHS compliance status through manufacturer datasheets prior to integration. Check regional availability as distribution may vary by location. Ensure ordering quantities align with factory packaging standards to avoid partial reel issues during assembly.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a dual-row, 14-position connection is required for 1.57 mm thick PCBs. The 3.96 mm pitch suits applications needing moderate density without high-density constraints. Verify that the vertical orientation fits the enclosure space. Consider the 5 A current rating for power distribution needs within the system architecture.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and configurations for diverse electronic assembly requirements. The 305 series is characterized by its durable thermoplastic housing and consistent 3.96 mm spacing across multiple variants.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult the EDAC 305 Series Ordering Guide for direct substitutes with different position counts or termination styles. Cross-reference compatible parts within the same series for identical mechanical footprints.
