Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the official EDAC datasheet to confirm contact plating and housing color specifications. Ensure the selected variant matches the required board thickness and mounting style for your application. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributor catalogs to confirm availability and compliance documentation status before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, single-row card edge connector with a 3.96 mm pitch is required. Confirm that the 1.57 mm board thickness compatibility aligns with your PCB design constraints. Verify that the 5 A current rating meets the electrical requirements of the target circuit interface. Ensure the panel mount style fits the mechanical enclosure design.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 306 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and pitch options for general-purpose interconnect applications. The 306 series is characterized by its robust construction and reliable performance in standard industrial and commercial electronic environments requiring secure card-to-board connections.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include models with identical pitch and mounting styles but different position counts, such as 306-010-421-102 or 306-026-421-103. Verify mechanical fit and electrical ratings before substitution.
