305-064-555-202

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-064-555-202 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 series, designed for dual-edge board insertion. It features 64 positions with a contact spacing of 0.156 inches (3.96 mm) and a row spacing of 0.140 inches (3.56 mm). The connector accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57 mm). Constructed with copper alloy contacts that are gold-plated, it ensures reliable electrical performance. The housing is made of green thermoplastic polyester, providing durability and insulation.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female connector design for secure board retention
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts for corrosion resistance
• Low-profile insulator body for space-constrained applications
• Thermoplastic polyester housing for thermal stability

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust interconnects
• Telecommunications equipment with high-density signal routing
• Automotive electronics modules needing reliable panel mounting
• Test and measurement instrumentation interfaces

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm contact plating thickness and housing color variations. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB thickness range of 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation before integration into regulated environments.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when dual-edge card insertion is required for 64-position connectivity. The 3.96 mm pitch suits applications needing wider spacing than standard 2.54 mm connectors. Verify that the vertical installation style aligns with the mechanical enclosure constraints and mating interface requirements.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and mounting styles. The 305-064 variant specifically addresses mid-range density needs in industrial and commercial electronic assemblies requiring durable, solder-lug termination.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include 305-064-555-201 and 305-064-555-208. Verify pin count, pitch, and mounting orientation match before substitution.
