305-036-500-507

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-036-500-507 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 series, designed for dual female mating with printed circuit boards. It features 36 positions arranged in two rows with a contact spacing of 0.156 inches (3.96 mm). The connector accepts PCBs with a nominal thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57 mm) and utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts. Rated for 5 A current, it employs a solder pin termination type and is housed in a green thermoplastic polyester insulator.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual female configuration for reliable signal communication and power connection between mother, daughter, and extender boards.
• Low profile insulator body design accommodates space-constrained panel or PCB mounting applications.
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts ensure durable electrical performance and corrosion resistance.

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Signal communication interfaces in modular electronic systems
• Power connection points for daughter and extender boards
• Panel mount installations requiring vertical orientation

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm mechanical variations such as flange features or mounting style. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB thickness of 1.57 mm and verify that the 3.96 mm pitch aligns with the system layout requirements before procurement.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row, 36-position interface is required for 1.57 mm thick boards. Confirm that the 5 A current rating and gold plating meet the environmental and electrical demands of the application compared to alternative series options.
