305-040-555-507

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-040-555-507 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 series, designed for vertical panel mounting. It features 40 positions in a dual female configuration with a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) pitch. The connector utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts and solder pin termination. It accommodates board thicknesses between 1.37 mm and 1.78 mm and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual row female contact configuration for non-specified card edge applications
• Gold plating on mating areas ensures reliable electrical connection
• Vertical panel mount style with solder pin termination
• Accepts between-contact and in-contact polarizing keys

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust card edge interfaces
• Telecommunications equipment backplanes
• Test and measurement instrumentation modules
• General-purpose electronic assemblies needing high-current connections

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current datasheet to ensure compatibility with required flange features and terminal plating. Confirm that the 5A current rating aligns with system thermal requirements. Check RoHS compliance status if restricted substances are mandated by project specifications.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row, 40-position interface with a 3.96 mm pitch is required. Ensure the host PCB thickness falls within the 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm acceptance range. Consider the vertical mounting orientation and panel installation constraints during mechanical design integration.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 Series, which offers various position counts and mounting options. The series is characterized by its use of thermoplastic polyester insulation and semi-波纹管 contact types. It serves as a standardized solution for connecting double-sided circuit boards in dense electronic environments.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other EDAC 305 series variants such as 305-040-555-502 or 305-040-555-504 if different flange configurations are needed. Verify that substitute parts maintain the same 3.96 mm pitch and dual-row female contact arrangement to ensure mechanical and electrical interchangeability.
