305-024-556-502

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC 305-024-556-502 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 and accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 1.57 mm (0.062 inch). The component employs gold-plated copper alloy contacts for reliable signal transmission and is designed for through-hole vertical mounting. Rated for 5 A current, it operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C and offers an insulation resistance of 5 GOhms.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-side contact design accommodates double-sided PCBs for increased I/O density
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts ensure corrosion resistance and stable conductivity
• Vertical panel mount style provides secure structural integration
• Thermoplastic polyester insulator body supports high-temperature operation

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system interface modules
• Telecommunications equipment backplanes
• Embedded computing board connections
• Test and measurement instrument interfaces

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official EDAC documentation to confirm exact plating thickness, row spacing, and termination type. Ensure compatibility with target PCB thickness specifications before procurement. Cross-reference manufacturer datasheets for updated environmental compliance status and mechanical drawing dimensions to prevent integration errors during assembly.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a dual-row connection is required for double-sided cards with a 1.57 mm thickness. The 3.96 mm pitch suits applications needing moderate pin density without excessive board width constraints. Consider the vertical mounting orientation for panel installations where space efficiency is prioritized over surface-level profiles.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 305 series, which specializes in standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and mounting configurations to support diverse electronic interconnection needs. The 305 series is widely recognized for its robust mechanical design and consistent electrical performance in demanding industrial environments.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other EDAC 305 series variants with matching 24-position dual-row layouts. Verify that alternative part numbers maintain identical 3.96 mm pitch and 1.57 mm board thickness acceptance to ensure mechanical fit.
