305-082-500-207

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC 305-082-500-207 is a standard card edge connector featuring 82 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration. It utilizes a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) contact pitch with a 3.56 mm row spacing. Designed for panel mounting at a vertical angle, the unit accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 1.57 mm (0.062 inch). The contacts are constructed from copper alloy and feature gold plating to ensure reliable conductivity. Rated for 5 A current, the connector operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C. It employs a solder terminal end type and includes an M3x0.5 mounting thread specification.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-row female connector design accommodating standard .062 inch thick PCBs
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts for enhanced signal integrity
• Vertical panel mount style with integrated screw mounting provisions

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system backplanes
• Telecommunications equipment interconnects
• Test and measurement instrument modules

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm exact pin count and termination style. Confirm that the M3x0.5 mounting thread requirement aligns with the chassis design. Ensure the selected variant matches the required board thickness tolerance of 1.57 mm. Cross-reference the RoHS compliance status with current regulatory requirements for the target market before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density connection is required for .062 inch thick circuit boards. The 3.96 mm pitch allows for substantial trace spacing compared to finer pitches. Verify that the vertical orientation fits within the enclosure height constraints. Consider the 5 A current rating per contact when designing power distribution networks. Ensure the panel cutout dimensions accommodate the insulator body profile correctly.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of card edge connectors. The series provides various position counts and mounting options for standard thickness boards. The 305 series is characterized by its robust thermoplastic insulator and standardized pitch dimensions. This specific model represents a higher position count variant within the dual-row family structure.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must maintain the 82-position count, 3.96 mm pitch, and dual-row configuration. Verify compatibility with .062 inch board thickness and vertical panel mounting requirements. Check for identical M3x0.5 mounting thread specifications to ensure mechanical fit.
