305-086-555-503

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-086-555-503 is a standard card edge connector receptacle featuring 86 positions arranged in two rows. It utilizes a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) pitch and is designed for PCB mounting with a straight orientation. The contacts are gold-plated copper alloy, rated for 5 A current, and terminate via solder pins. The housing is thermoplastic, supporting board thicknesses of 1.57 mm, with an operating temperature range from -40°C to +105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-row configuration providing 86 contact positions for high-density interconnects
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts ensure reliable signal transmission and corrosion resistance
• Thermoplastic housing supports vertical panel or PCB mounting applications

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust card edge interfaces
• Telecommunications equipment utilizing standard board thicknesses
• Test and measurement instrumentation with high pin count requirements

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix code against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm exact termination style and plating specifications. Ensure compatibility with the target printed circuit board thickness of 1.57 mm before integration. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the latest certified documentation provided by EDAC Inc.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row connector with 86 positions and a 3.96 mm pitch is required. Verify that the application environment falls within the specified -40°C to +105°C operating temperature range. Ensure the mating card edge design matches the connector's contact geometry and board thickness constraints.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and mounting styles. The 305-086-555-503 specifically addresses high-pin-count needs with a dual-row layout, distinguishing it from single-row variants within the same family.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with EDAC part numbers sharing the 305 series prefix and identical 86-position, 3.96 mm pitch specifications. Verify mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings match exactly before substitution.
