305-032-556-507

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-032-556-507 is a standard card edge connector featuring 32 positions arranged in a dual row configuration. It utilizes a contact spacing of 0.156 inches (3.96 mm) and a row spacing of 0.140 inches (3.56 mm). The unit accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57 mm). Electrical specifications include a current rating of 5 amps, gold plating on the mating area, and tin plating on tails with nickel underplating. The insulator body is green thermoplastic.

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to ensure correct termination style and plating specifications match the design requirements. Confirm that the PCB thickness aligns with the 0.062-inch acceptance criteria. Check for any updated RoHS compliance documentation prior to final procurement approval.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row interface with 3.96 mm pitch is required. Ensure the application environment supports the specified temperature range and current rating. Compare against single-row alternatives if space constraints differ from the dual-row footprint.

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 designed for high-reliability applications requiring durable mechanical connections between circuit boards and headers.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other EDAC 305 series variants for different position counts or termination styles. Verify mechanical compatibility before substituting with generic equivalents.
