305-034-555-501

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-034-555-501 is a dual-edge female card edge connector from the 305 series, designed for panel and through-hole mounting. It features 34 positions with a 0.156-inch (3.96mm) pitch across two rows. The contacts are made of copper alloy with gold plating, housed in green thermoplastic polyester insulation. It supports board thicknesses between 0.054 and 0.070 inches and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female configuration for non-specified card applications
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts for reliable signal transmission
• Thermoplastic polyester insulation housing for durability
• Panel mount design with flanged features for secure installation

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust interconnects
• Medical equipment needing reliable signal pathways
• Agricultural technology hardware operating in harsh environments

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official 305 Series Ordering Guide to ensure correct contact plating thickness and material specifications. Confirm that the required board thickness falls within the specified 0.054 to 0.070 inch range for proper mechanical engagement. Check RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to your project requirements.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-edge female connector with a 0.156-inch pitch is required for panel-mounted applications. Ensure the mating card thickness aligns with the connector's specified tolerance range. Consider the 305 series compatibility if integrating with other components from the same family for consistent mechanical and electrical performance standards.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors, which are widely used in various electronic assemblies. The series offers multiple position counts and configurations to suit different interface needs. The 305-034 variant specifically provides 34 positions, balancing connectivity density with physical space constraints in panel-mounted designs.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult the EDAC 305 Series Ordering Guide for direct substitutes with identical mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings. Verify that any alternative part maintains the same 0.156-inch pitch and dual-edge female configuration to ensure interchangeability without redesigning the host board.
