305-076-500-558

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-076-500-558 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 series, designed for dual female mating with edgeboards. It features 76 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 gold-plated copper alloy contacts and a low-profile insulator body, it provides reliable electrical interconnection in panel-mounted applications.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual female configuration for secure edgeboard mating
• Low-profile insulator body design for space-constrained installations
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts ensure durable conductivity
• Panel mount installation style with vertical orientation

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust card edge interfaces

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number including suffixes to confirm specific plating thickness and material certifications. Confirm that the target application supports the specified 0.062-inch board thickness and 3.96 mm pitch. Ensure compatibility with existing panel mounting hardware and mating edgeboard dimensions before procurement.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row, 76-position interface is required with a 3.96 mm pitch. It is suitable for applications demanding gold-plated contacts for corrosion resistance and a low-profile form factor. Verify that the operating environment aligns with the standard temperature range and current ratings specified for the 305 series headers.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This connector belongs to the EDAC 305 series, which offers various position counts and termination options. The 305-076-500-558 specifically denotes a 76-position header with solder pin termination. It is part of a broader family of standard card edge connectors designed for general-purpose electronic interconnects across multiple industries.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the EDAC 305 series include models with identical 76-position counts and 3.96 mm pitch, such as 305-076-500-201 or 305-076-556-568, provided the termination type and mounting style match the design requirements.
