306-012-420-107

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC 306-012-420-107 is a standard card edge connector receptacle featuring 12 positions with a 3.96 mm pitch. Designed for panel mount installation at a vertical angle, it accommodates PCBs with a thickness of 1.57 mm. The contacts are constructed from copper alloy and gold plated to ensure reliable conductivity, supporting a current rating of 5 A. The housing utilizes thermoplastic polyester material, providing structural integrity and electrical insulation.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts for enhanced signal reliability
• Thermoplastic polyester housing for durable insulation

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system interconnects
• Telecommunications equipment backplanes
• Automotive electronic module connections

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer part number against official EDAC documentation to confirm compatibility with your design requirements. Ensure that the panel mounting style and vertical orientation align with your mechanical constraints. Cross-reference the 12-position count and 3.96 mm pitch with your PCB layout specifications before finalizing procurement decisions.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, panel-mount card edge solution is required for systems operating within a 5 A current capacity. The 3.96 mm pitch and 1.57 mm board thickness compatibility define its physical interface. Consider the thermoplastic polyester housing material for environmental resistance and the gold plating for contact longevity in high-cycle applications.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 306 series of standard card edge connectors. The series is characterized by robust construction suitable for demanding environments. The specific model integrates dual female contacts designed to mate with edge cards, providing a stable connection point for data and power transmission in modular electronic assemblies.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult official EDAC substitution guides for verified alternative part numbers. Generic equivalents may not match the precise 3.96 mm pitch or 1.57 mm board thickness tolerance. Verify that any substitute maintains the same vertical panel mount orientation and gold-plated contact specifications to ensure functional interchangeability.
