Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix code against the manufacturer's official ordering guide to confirm exact pin count, mounting style, and termination type. Confirm that the required PCB thickness aligns with the 1.57 mm specification. Check regional availability as distribution status may vary by location. Ensure compliance with RoHS3 requirements if applicable to your project specifications.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-edge card interface with 50 positions is required. The 3.96 mm pitch suits applications needing wider spacing between rows. Verify that the vertical or straight mounting option matches the enclosure design. Consider the 5 A current rating for power distribution needs within the connector system.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 Series, which provides various card edge connector options. The series includes headers and receptacles with different position counts and mounting styles.
