305-022-521-212

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC 305-022-521-212 is a standard card edge connector header featuring 22 positions with a 3.96 mm pitch and dual-row configuration. It utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts for reliable signal transmission and supports a continuous current rating of 5 A. Designed for panel mount installation at a vertical angle, the component accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 1.57 mm. The insulator body is constructed from thermoplastic polyester, providing structural integrity and electrical insulation.

• Dual-row contact arrangement for high-density interconnect applications
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts ensure corrosion resistance and stable conductivity
• Compatible with between-contact and in-contact polarizing keys for secure alignment
• Vertical panel mount design facilitates direct board insertion

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system backplanes
• Telecommunications equipment interfaces
• Test and measurement instrument modules

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order quantity meets manufacturer distribution requirements, as availability may be restricted in certain regions. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official documentation prior to final procurement. Ensure that the receiving facility has appropriate handling procedures for sensitive electronic components to prevent electrostatic discharge damage during storage and assembly.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row card edge interface with a 3.96 mm pitch is required. The 1.57 mm PCB thickness compatibility must match the target board design. Verify that the 5 A current rating satisfies the application's power requirements. Consider the vertical mounting style if space constraints or orientation needs dictate a perpendicular connection relative to the housing.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series is characterized by robust thermoplastic housings and precise contact spacing. Components in this family are engineered for durability in demanding environments, offering consistent performance across various industrial and commercial electronics applications requiring reliable mechanical and electrical connections.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference compatible parts within the EDAC 305 series that share identical pin counts, pitch, and row configurations. Ensure any substitute maintains the same PCB thickness tolerance and mounting orientation. Verify that alternative suppliers provide equivalent gold plating specifications and current ratings to guarantee functional interchangeability without redesigning the host board.
