305-030-500-502

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-030-500-502 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 series, designed for dual female connections with 30 positions. It features a 3.96 mm pitch and accepts board thicknesses ranging from 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm. The connector utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts with a 10.0 µin (0.25 µm) finish and employs solder eyelet termination. 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 row configuration providing 30 total contact positions for high-density interconnect applications.
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts ensure reliable signal transmission and corrosion resistance.
• Thermoplastic polyester housing provides structural integrity and electrical insulation.
• Solder eyelet termination style facilitates secure mounting on printed circuit boards.

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust panel-mounted interfaces
• Communication equipment utilizing standard card edge form factors
• Automotive electronics needing reliable thermal performance
• Test and measurement instrumentation

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official EDAC documentation to confirm exact pin count, plating thickness, and termination style. Ensure compatibility with target PCB thickness specifications before procurement. Confirm RoHS compliance status through manufacturer datasheets rather than distributor summaries.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row, 30-position interface with a 3.96 mm pitch is required. Consider the vertical or straight mounting orientation based on chassis constraints. Validate that the 5 A current rating and -40°C to +105°C operating range meet environmental requirements.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series includes various position counts and mounting styles, all sharing common design principles such as thermoplastic insulation and gold-plated contacts. It serves as a reliable solution for connecting edge-board modules to host systems.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other EDAC 305 series variants like 305-030-500-202 for similar specifications. Verify mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings match before substituting. No direct cross-brand substitutes are confirmed in public data.
