305-084-555-202

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-084-555-202 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 series, designed for dual-edge board insertion. It features 84 positions with a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) contact spacing and a 3.56 mm row spacing. The connector supports printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 1.57 mm (0.062 inch). It utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts and a green thermoplastic insulator body. Rated for 5 A current, it operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C and offers an insulation resistance of 5 GOhms.
