Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the official EDAC datasheet to ensure correct contact plating and termination style. Confirm that the required board thickness aligns with the 1.57 mm specification. Check regional availability as distribution status may vary by location. Ensure compliance with RoHS requirements if applicable to the target market.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a 24-position dual-row connector is required for vertical panel installation. Ensure the application environment stays within the -40°C to +105°C operating range. Verify that the mating card edge thickness matches the specified 1.57 mm dimension. Consider the 5 A current rating for power distribution needs in the circuit design.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and termination options. The 305 series is characterized by its thermoplastic housing and gold-plated contacts, suitable for general-purpose electronic applications requiring durable interconnect solutions.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult the EDAC 305 series ordering guide for direct substitutes with different position counts or termination styles. Cross-reference with other EDAC series such as 315 or 357 only if mechanical dimensions are compatible. Verify pinout and electrical ratings before substituting with components from other manufacturers.
