305-034-555-568

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-034-555-568 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 Series, designed for dual-edge board applications. It features 34 positions with a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) pitch and supports two rows of contacts. The connector utilizes copper alloy terminals with gold plating and employs a solder pin termination method. Rated for 5 A continuous current, it accommodates PCB thicknesses between 1.37 mm and 1.78 mm. Operating within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C, it ensures reliable performance in industrial environments.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Accepts both between-contact and in-contact polarizing keys for secure board alignment
• Features half-beam contact type for robust mechanical retention
• Includes flange characteristics for panel mounting with threaded inserts

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring dual-edge card insertion
• Panel-mounted electronic modules needing polarized keying
• High-reliability interconnects in harsh environmental conditions

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity by cross-referencing the manufacturer part number with official EDAC documentation. Confirm that the specific suffix matches the required pin count and termination style. Ensure compliance with RoHS3 standards if applicable to your assembly process. Check for any regional distribution restrictions before finalizing procurement plans.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a dual-row, 34-position connector with a 3.96 mm pitch is required. It is suitable for applications demanding polarizing key compatibility and panel-mount installation. Consider the 5 A current rating and operating temperature range to ensure compatibility with system electrical and thermal requirements.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context
