305-084-555-502

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-084-555-502 is a standard card edge connector designed for dual-edge board insertion. It features 84 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 a low-profile thermoplastic polyester insulator body, it utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts to ensure reliable signal transmission.

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the manufacturer's official ordering guide to confirm pin count, termination style, and plating specifications. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57 mm) and verify that the mounting style aligns with the intended panel installation requirements before finalizing procurement.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-pin-count dual-edge connector is required for vertical panel mounting. Confirm that the application environment falls within the standard operating temperature range and that the 3.96 mm pitch matches the PCB layout. Validate that the strain relief capabilities meet the mechanical stress expectations of the assembly.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and termination options, providing a modular solution for connecting double-sided circuit boards. The 305 series is characterized by its robust construction and consistent electrical performance across different configurations.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult the EDAC 305 Series Ordering Guide for direct substitutes with identical pin counts and spacing. Verify that any alternative part number maintains the same 0.156-inch pitch and 0.062-inch board thickness acceptance to ensure mechanical fit.
