306-007-400-102

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 306-007-400-102 is a standard card edge connector designed for vertical panel mounting applications. It features a single centerline row with 14 positions and a contact spacing of 3.96 mm (0.156 inches). The connector accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 1.57 mm (0.062 inches). Constructed with a low-profile thermoplastic insulator body, it utilizes copper alloy contacts that are gold-plated to ensure reliable electrical performance.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Vertical panel mount configuration for secure installation
• Single centerline row design accommodating standard PCB thickness
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts for conductivity

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust card edge interfaces
• Telecommunications equipment utilizing standard form factor modules
• Test and measurement instrumentation panels

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific pin count and board thickness compatibility against your design requirements before ordering. Confirm that the vertical panel mount style aligns with your enclosure constraints. Ensure the single-row configuration meets your signal routing needs. Cross-reference the datasheet for precise mechanical dimensions to avoid assembly issues.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-row, vertical interface is required for 1.57 mm thick boards. The 3.96 mm pitch suits applications where space efficiency is balanced with standard connectivity. Consider the gold plating for environments demanding corrosion resistance. Evaluate the low-profile body height if vertical clearance within the chassis is limited.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 306 series, which specializes in standard card edge connectors. The series offers various configurations including different row counts and mounting styles. The 306-007 variant specifically addresses needs for moderate density connections with a focus on durability and standard PCB compatibility.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 14-position count, 3.96 mm pitch, and vertical panel mount style. Verify that any alternative maintains the same 1.57 mm board thickness acceptance and single-row architecture to ensure mechanical interchangeability.
