305-032-556-568

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-032-556-568 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 series, designed for dual-edge board applications. It features 32 positions with a 3.96 mm pitch and supports a PCB thickness of 1.57 mm. The connector utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts and solder pin termination for secure electrical connections. Rated for 5 A current, it operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C. The housing is made of green thermoplastic, ensuring durability in panel-mounted vertical installations.

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official EDAC documentation to confirm exact plating thickness and flange specifications. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB thickness of 1.57 mm before integration. Cross-reference the RoHS compliance status with the latest manufacturer datasheet to meet regulatory requirements for your specific deployment region.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-edge card interface with a 3.96 mm pitch is required. The 32-position count suits moderate-density applications. Verify that the panel-mount vertical orientation aligns with the chassis design. Confirm that the 5 A current rating meets the signal power requirements of the connected circuitry without exceeding thermal limits.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and mounting styles. The 305-032-556-568 specifically addresses dual-edge connectivity needs. It shares common family traits like the 3.96 mm pitch but differs in position count and termination details compared to other variants in the lineup.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other EDAC 305 series parts with matching 32 positions and 3.96 mm pitch, such as 305-032-555-568, provided the flange and termination specifications are identical. Verify mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings before swapping.
