Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the 305-082-500-202 to confirm exact dimensional tolerances and mating force requirements. Ensure that the receiving PCB or backplane design aligns with the specified 3.96 mm pitch and panel mounting style. Confirm compliance with RoHS directives if required by the end application standards.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density connection is required for dual-edge cards. The 82-position count suits complex signal routing needs. Verify that the operating environment stays within the -40°C to +105°C range. Ensure the installation method matches the panel mount requirement rather than PCB surface mount.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series, which specializes in standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and termination styles. The 305-082 variant specifically addresses higher pin count requirements while maintaining the standard 3.96 mm spacing common in industrial interconnect solutions.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other EDAC 305 series parts with matching 82 positions and 3.96 mm pitch, such as 305-082-500-201 or 305-082-520-202, provided the termination and mounting specifications are compatible.
