Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official EDAC documentation to confirm exact pin count, plating type, and housing color. Ensure compatibility with target PCB thickness specifications before procurement. Cross-reference manufacturer datasheets to validate mechanical dimensions and material composition requirements for the intended application environment.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this connector based on the required 22-position count and 0.156-inch spacing. Confirm that the target PCB thickness falls within the specified 0.054 to 0.070-inch range. Evaluate environmental conditions to determine if tin plating suffices or if alternative finishes are necessary for corrosion resistance or wear performance.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC edgeboard connector family, which offers various configurations for different board thicknesses and contact spacings. The 306 series specifically addresses dual-edge mating requirements. EDAC designs these connectors to meet rigorous industrial standards for durability and signal integrity in demanding electronic environments.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult official EDAC substitution guides for direct replacements. Verify that any substitute maintains identical 22-position count, 0.156-inch spacing, and compatible PCB thickness tolerance. Ensure mechanical fit and electrical characteristics match the original design specifications.
