305-070-521-568

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-070-521-568 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 series, designed for panel mounting applications. It features a dual female configuration with 70 positions arranged in two rows. The connector utilizes a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) pitch and accepts PCBs with thicknesses ranging from 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm (0.054" to 0.070"). Contacts are constructed from copper alloy with gold plating, providing a continuous current rating of 5 A. The unit employs a solder pin termination type and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.
