305-032-520-504

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-032-520-504 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 Series, designed for dual female termination on non-specified board edges. It features 32 positions with a 0.156-inch (3.96mm) pitch and accepts PCB thicknesses between 0.054 and 0.070 inches. The connector utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts and thermoplastic insulation, supporting a continuous current rating of 5A and a voltage rating of 1800VACrms.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Accepts between-contact and in-contact polarizing keys for secure board alignment
• Dual female contact configuration ensures reliable mating with card edge fingers
• Thermoplastic housing provides structural integrity across specified temperature ranges

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust panel-mounted interconnects
• Telecommunications equipment utilizing standardized card edge interfaces
• Automotive electronics demanding high reliability under vibration

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number matches the required 32-position configuration and 0.156-inch pitch before integration. Confirm compatibility with polarizing key requirements if mechanical locking is necessary for the application. Ensure the host PCB thickness falls within the 0.054 to 0.070-inch range to guarantee proper contact engagement and electrical performance.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-sided female connector with a 3.96mm pitch is required for vertical panel mounting. Consider the 5A current rating and 1800VACrms dielectric strength for appropriate circuit protection. Verify that the green thermoplastic housing meets environmental resistance needs for the intended operating temperature range.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 305 Series, which offers a range of card edge connectors with varying position counts and termination styles. The series is characterized by its use of copper alloy contacts with gold plating and thermoplastic insulators, providing consistent performance across multiple industrial and commercial applications.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other EDAC 305 Series variants with matching 32-position counts and 0.156-inch pitch specifications. Ensure any replacement maintains the dual female contact type and compatible PCB thickness tolerance.
