306-010-520-108

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 306-010-520-108 is a standard card edge connector receptacle featuring a single row of ten positions with a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) contact spacing. Designed for vertical panel mount installation, it accommodates printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 1.57 mm (0.062 inch). The connector utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts and a thermoplastic polyester insulator body. It supports a current rating of 5 A and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Accepts standard 0.062 inch thick PCBs with low-profile insulator design
• Provides reliable electrical connection via gold-plated copper alloy contacts
• Features flush mount flange with threaded inserts for secure panel attachment

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust panel-mounted interconnects
• Communication equipment utilizing standard card edge interfaces
• Consumer electronics with vertical board insertion requirements

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official EDAC documentation to ensure correct flange configuration and termination style. Confirm that the required pin count and spacing match the application's PCB layout constraints. Check for RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the final assembly. Ensure the selected variant matches the intended operating temperature range for the specific deployment environment.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-row, 10-position interface is required for vertical mounting applications. The 3.96 mm pitch suits designs needing wider spacing between signal lines. Consider the 5 A current rating for power distribution needs within the connector limits. Evaluate the thermoplastic polyester housing for compatibility with soldering processes and environmental exposure conditions in the target system.
