305-022-556-202

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-022-556-202 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 series, designed for vertical panel mounting. It features 22 positions with a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) pitch across two rows. The connector utilizes female contacts made of copper alloy with gold plating and employs a solder pin termination method. It supports board thicknesses ranging from 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female contact configuration for non-specified dual-edge cards
• Vertical panel mount style with solder pin termination
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts for reliable signal transmission
• Thermoplastic insulator housing with green coloration

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust panel-mounted interconnects
• Test and measurement equipment interfaces
• Telecommunications hardware backplanes
• Embedded computing modules with dual-edge card requirements

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the manufacturer's current ordering guide to ensure compatibility with required flange dimensions and contact lengths. Confirm that the target PCB design accommodates the specified 3.96 mm pitch and panel mounting constraints. Check RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to your assembly process.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, panel-mount solution is required for dual-edge circuit boards. Ensure the application demands a 22-position interface with a 3.96 mm spacing. Verify that the operating environment falls within the -40°C to +105°C range and that the board thickness aligns with the 1.37–1.78 mm specification for proper contact engagement.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and mounting styles, providing modular solutions for high-density interconnect applications. The 305 series is characterized by its thermoplastic insulation and durable metal contacts, suitable for repeated insertion cycles in demanding environments.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult the official EDAC 305 Series Ordering Guide for direct substitutes with differing position counts or flange configurations. Cross-reference with other manufacturers' 3.96 mm pitch dual-edge connectors only if mechanical and electrical parameters match exactly.
