Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific pin count and orientation requirements against the target PCB layout before procurement. Confirm that the receiving board thickness strictly adheres to the 0.062 inch nominal specification to ensure proper mating force and contact retention. Check regional availability status as distribution channels may vary. Ensure compliance with relevant environmental standards required by the end application.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a single-row interface with 3.96 mm pitch is required for vertical panel mounting. The dual-edge female configuration is suitable for boards inserted from both sides or specific single-sided insertion needs depending on housing design. Consider the green color coding if visual identification aids assembly processes. Verify that the 5 A current rating meets the circuit load requirements.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 306 series of standard card edge connectors. The series is characterized by robust construction using thermoplastic materials and durable metal contacts. These connectors are engineered for general-purpose electronic applications where reliable signal transmission and power delivery are essential across various industrial and commercial sectors.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include variants with different position counts such as 306-018-500-107 or 306-010-420-107, provided the pin count matches the design. Cross-series replacements require verification of pitch, board thickness compatibility, and mounting style to ensure mechanical and electrical equivalence.
