Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix matches the required flange features and mounting options, as variations exist within the series. Confirm compliance requirements such as RoHS status directly from the manufacturer's documentation before finalizing procurement orders. Ensure the selected variant aligns with the intended panel or PCB layout constraints.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a 44-position dual-row connector with a 3.96 mm pitch is required. Ensure the target printed circuit board thickness is compatible with the 1.57 mm specification. Verify that the straight mounting orientation and solder termination method suit the assembly process and spatial constraints of the electronic enclosure design.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 Series, which specializes in standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and termination styles to support diverse electronic interconnection needs.
