306-013-420-104

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 306-013-420-104 is a standard card edge connector from the 306 series, designed for panel mount applications. It features a dual female configuration with 26 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) and utilizes a single centerline row. The housing is constructed from thermoplastic polyester, finished in green, and employs tin-plated copper alloy contacts. It supports solder pin termination and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female contact design accommodates non-specified board types
• Low-profile insulator body facilitates compact panel integration
• Thermoplastic polyester housing provides structural stability

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Panel-mounted electronic assemblies requiring vertical interconnection
• Industrial control systems utilizing standard thickness PCBs
• General-purpose backplane connections in modular equipment

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized EDAC distributors or certified partners. Confirm RoHS compliance status and specific plating requirements against project specifications. Ensure mechanical compatibility with existing panel cutouts and board thickness tolerances before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a dual-edge female connector with 26 positions is required for vertical panel mounting. The 3.96 mm pitch suits standard PCB layouts, while the tin finish offers cost-effective conductivity. Consider thermal ratings and insulation resistance if operating in high-stress environments.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 306 series of card edge connectors, which are engineered for reliable signal transmission in industrial and commercial electronics. The series emphasizes durability and precise alignment for repeated mating cycles.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference part numbers within the EDAC 306 family for alternative position counts or plating options. Verify that substitute components maintain identical pitch, board thickness acceptance, and mounting style specifications.
