305-082-500-208

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC 305-082-500-208 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 Series, designed for dual-row applications. It features 82 positions with a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) pitch and supports a board thickness of 1.57 mm. The connector utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts rated for 5 A current and offers an insulation resistance of 5 GOhms. It employs a solder lug termination style and is constructed with a thermoplastic polyester housing. The unit operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-row configuration providing 82 contact positions
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts for reliable signal transmission
• Thermoplastic polyester housing material for durability
• Solder lug termination style for secure panel mounting

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Card edge interconnect systems
• Panel-mounted electronic assemblies
• Industrial control hardware interfaces

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official EDAC documentation to ensure correct contact plating and housing color specifications. Confirm that the target application accommodates the 3.96 mm pitch and 1.57 mm board thickness requirements. Check manufacturer lead times as availability may vary. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if required by the end product specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density dual-row connection is required for panel-mounted card edge applications. The 3.96 mm pitch allows for robust spacing between contacts, suitable for higher current loads up to 5 A. Verify compatibility with the mating card's edge guide and slot dimensions. Consider the solder lug termination for rigid panel installation rather than flexible PCB mounting scenarios.

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 mounting options, catering to diverse industrial and commercial needs. EDAC has established expertise in complex interconnect solutions for computing, medical, and aerospace sectors since 1966.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other EDAC 305 Series variants with matching 82-position dual-row configurations. Verify identical 3.96 mm pitch and 1.57 mm board thickness compatibility. Cross-reference termination styles and contact materials to ensure functional equivalence in the specific assembly.
