Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify specific ordering suffixes against official EDAC documentation to ensure correct termination and mounting variations. Confirm compliance requirements such as RoHS status directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors prior to procurement. Cross-reference datasheet specifications to validate environmental ratings for intended operational conditions.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-pin-count dual-row interface is required for panel-mounted installations. Ensure the mating card thickness falls within the specified 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm range. Verify that the 3.96 mm pitch aligns with the PCB layout constraints and that the 5 A current rating meets the electrical load requirements of the application.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 Series, which offers various mounting options and position counts. The series is characterized by its use of thermoplastic polyester insulation and gold-plated contacts. Similar parts in the series include configurations with different pin counts and termination styles, all sharing the same fundamental 3.96 mm pitch architecture.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the 305 Series may include variants with different pin counts or termination types, such as the 305-062-500-503. Always verify mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings before substituting.
