Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm pin count and plating specifications. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB thickness range of 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm before integration. Confirm that the vertical panel mount design aligns with the mechanical enclosure requirements. Cross-reference the RoHS status if environmental compliance is mandatory for the end application.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-sided card edge connection is required for vertical panel mounting. The 3.96 mm pitch accommodates standard board layouts while providing sufficient spacing. The thermoplastic polyester housing offers durability in industrial environments. Consider the 5 A current rating and operating temperature limits when designing for high-load or extreme condition scenarios.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 306 series of standard card edge connectors. The series provides various position counts and configurations for general-purpose electronic interconnections. The 306 series is characterized by its use of thermoplastic materials and standardized pitch dimensions, facilitating widespread adoption in modular electronic designs across multiple sectors.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include parts with identical pitch and mounting styles but different position counts, such as the 306-010-420-107 or 306-043-421-104. Verify mechanical fit and electrical ratings before swapping.
