Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix code to confirm contact plating thickness and termination style. Ensure the ordering documentation matches the required 22-position configuration and 3.96 mm pitch. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer channels before integration into regulated assemblies.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical panel-mount solution is required for dual-edge cards. The 3.96 mm spacing accommodates standard board thicknesses. Verify that the 5 A current rating meets system electrical requirements and that the operating temperature range aligns with environmental conditions.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series provides various position counts and mounting styles. The 305-022-555-208 specifically denotes a 22-position variant with gold contacts and panel mount capabilities within the broader product family.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other 305 series variants for position count differences. Verify compatibility with existing polarizing key requirements and panel cutout dimensions before substituting.
