305-062-520-558

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-062-520-558 is a standard card edge connector designed for vertical panel mounting applications. It features a dual female configuration with 62 positions arranged in two rows. The component utilizes a 0.156-inch (3.96 mm) pitch and is engineered to accommodate board thicknesses of up to 1.57 mm. Electrical specifications include a current rating of 5 A, supported by gold-plated copper alloy contacts. The termination method employs solder pins, ensuring secure mechanical and electrical connections within the assembly.

• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts for reliable conductivity
• Solder pin termination for robust PCB attachment

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system interconnects
• Telecommunications equipment backplanes
• Automotive electronic module interfaces
• Medical device circuit board connections

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix matches the required contact plating and insulator color specifications. Confirm that the host printed circuit board design accommodates the 0.156-inch pitch and 1.57 mm maximum thickness constraints. Ensure compatibility with the specified 5 A current rating for the intended application load. Cross-reference the manufacturer datasheet for precise dimensional tolerances before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row, vertical card edge interface is required for panel-mounted assemblies. The 62-position count supports moderate-to-high density signal requirements. Verify that the operating environment aligns with the material specifications of the copper alloy contacts and green insulator. Consider the solder pin termination style if through-hole mounting is preferred over surface-mount alternatives for mechanical stability.
