305-050-500-501

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-050-500-501 is a dual-row card edge connector designed for vertical panel mounting applications. It features 50 positions with a 0.156-inch (3.96mm) pitch and accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57mm). The connector utilizes copper alloy contacts with gold plating and terminates via solder eyelets. Rated for 5A continuous current and 1800VACrms, it operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the manufacturer's official ordering guide to ensure correct termination style and flange characteristics. Confirm that the required polarizing key specifications match the connector's acceptance capabilities. Cross-reference the RoHS compliance status with current regulatory requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row, 50-position interface is required for panels accommodating 1.57mm thick boards. Ensure the application environment falls within the specified -40°C to +105°C operational range. Verify that the solder eyelet termination method aligns with the assembly process and that the 5A current rating meets the electrical load requirements.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various configurations for different board thicknesses and mounting styles. The 305-050-500-501 specifically addresses high-reliability vertical mounting needs with robust electrical ratings and durable gold-plated contacts.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other EDAC 305 series variants with matching 50-position counts and 0.156-inch pitch. Verify compatibility regarding polarizing key acceptance and solder eyelet termination before swapping.
