306-017-521-102

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 306-017-521-102 is a standard card edge connector designed for high-reliability interconnect applications. It features a single row of 34 positions with 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). Constructed with a polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) insulator body, it offers a low-profile design suitable for panel mount installation in a vertical orientation. The contacts are made from copper alloy and gold plated to ensure conductivity.

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm plating thickness and material specifications. Ensure the selected variant matches the required board thickness and mounting style for your application. Cross-reference the part number with official EDAC documentation to avoid substitution errors due to minor manufacturing updates.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-row card edge connector with 0.156-inch spacing is required. It is appropriate for designs needing a low-profile solution that accommodates 0.062-inch thick boards. Consider the PPS housing material for thermal stability and verify that the vertical panel mount style fits the mechanical constraints of the enclosure.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 306 series of card edge connectors. The series provides various design options to tailor interconnect requirements. These connectors are characterized by their ability to accept specific board thicknesses and offer multiple position counts within the same contact spacing family.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult the official EDAC replacement guide for direct substitutes. Verify compatibility regarding contact spacing, board thickness, and mounting style before replacing.
