Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to ensure compatibility with required board thickness and termination type. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements prior to procurement, as these attributes are critical for assembly process validation and long-term reliability in electronic assemblies.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, single-row card edge interface is required. Ensure the mating PCB thickness falls within the specified 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm range. Verify that the operating environment temperature does not exceed the rated limits and that the tin plating meets the conductivity and corrosion resistance needs of the application.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 306 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and mounting styles. The 306-011-421-101 specifically denotes a 22-position dual-edge variant with a 3.96 mm pitch, intended for reliable signal transmission in compact electronic enclosures requiring robust mechanical retention.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult the EDAC 306 Series Ordering Guide for direct substitutes with different position counts or termination types. Cross-reference with other manufacturers' 3.96 mm pitch card edge connectors only if mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings are identical.
