Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current datasheet to ensure compatibility with required row spacing and mounting configurations. Confirm that the package quantity aligns with project requirements, as standard packaging may vary. Cross-reference the ECCN classification for export compliance before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a dual-edge female connector with 36 positions and 0.156-inch pitch is required. Ensure the target PCB thickness matches the 0.062-inch specification. Consider the operating temperature range and insulation resistance values if the application involves high-stress environments or sensitive signal integrity requirements.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 305 Series, which offers various termination options and mounting styles. It is designed for panel mount or through-hole applications, providing a secure connection for edge-board cards in dense electronic assemblies.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other EDAC 305 series variants with matching pin counts and pitch, such as 305-036-521-202, provided the termination and mounting specifications align with the design requirements.
