306-007-520-107

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 306-007-520-107 is a standard card edge connector from the 306 Series, designed for vertical panel mounting. It features a dual female configuration with 14 positions and a contact spacing of 0.156 inches (3.96 mm). The connector accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57 mm). Contacts are gold-plated copper alloy, rated for 5 A current at +105°C maximum operating temperature. The insulator body is green thermoplastic, providing an insulation resistance of 5 GOhms. It includes flush mount flanges with top openings and M3 threaded inserts.

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation prior to procurement. Confirm that the specific ordering suffix matches the required pin count and plating specifications. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB thickness of 0.062 inches. Check for any regional distribution restrictions or supply limitations directly with authorized suppliers before placing orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, panel-mounted solution is required for double-sided edge cards. The 3.96 mm pitch suits applications needing wider spacing than standard 2.54 mm connectors. Verify that the M3 threaded insert requirement aligns with the chassis design. Consider the 5 A current rating against the total load requirements of the application circuitry.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 306 Series, which specializes in standard card edge connectors. The series is characterized by its versatility in position counts and mounting styles. The 306-007-520-107 specifically utilizes the common 0.156 inch centerline spacing found across many industrial interconnect standards, ensuring broad compatibility with existing board designs.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Cross-referencing requires matching the 14-position count, 3.96 mm pitch, dual-edge female type, and panel-mount flange configuration exactly.
