305-024-520-508

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC 305-024-520-508 is a standard card edge connector featuring 24 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration. It utilizes a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) contact spacing with a 3.56 mm row spacing. Designed for vertical panel mounting, the unit accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 1.57 mm (0.062 inch). The contacts are constructed from copper alloy and feature gold plating to ensure reliable signal transmission. Rated for 5 A continuous current and 1800 VACrms dielectric voltage, the connector operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Features a low-profile insulator body constructed from thermoplastic material
• Provides robust electrical isolation with high insulation resistance ratings

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring secure card edge interfaces
• Telecommunications equipment utilizing standardized module connections
• Test and measurement instrumentation panels

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the official EDAC datasheet to confirm mechanical dimensions and termination style. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB thickness of 1.57 mm before procurement. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributors to confirm availability status and compliance with current environmental regulations such as RoHS standards.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-edge female connector with 24 positions is required for vertical panel installation. The 3.96 mm pitch suits applications needing wider spacing for high-voltage isolation. Verify that the mating card supports the specified polarizing key requirements. Confirm that the operating environment remains within the -40°C to +105°C thermal limits defined by the manufacturer.

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 while maintaining consistent 3.96 mm spacing. The 305 series is designed for general-purpose interconnect applications where reliable panel-mounted connections are necessary for modular electronic assemblies.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult the EDAC 305 Series Ordering Guide for alternative position counts or termination styles. Verify mechanical fit and electrical ratings before substituting with other manufacturers' components. Ensure any replacement maintains the 3.96 mm pitch and dual-row configuration.
