306-019-520-101

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 306-019-520-101 is a standard card edge connector header featuring 19 positions with a 3.96 mm pitch. Designed for vertical panel mounting, it accommodates printed circuit boards with a thickness of 1.57 mm. The contacts are constructed from copper alloy and feature gold plating to ensure reliable signal transmission. Rated for 5 A current, the unit utilizes a thermoplastic insulator body and provides an insulation resistance of 5 Gohms.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual female cantilever contact design for secure board retention
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts for corrosion resistance
• Vertical panel mount configuration for space-efficient integration

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system interconnects
• Telecommunications equipment backplanes
• Test and measurement instrument interfaces

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official EDAC documentation to confirm exact pin count and termination style. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB thickness of 1.57 mm before procurement. Confirm that the 3.96 mm pitch aligns with the mechanical layout requirements of the assembly.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust, high-current connection is required for thick PCBs. The 19-position layout suits moderate density applications. Verify that the vertical orientation fits within the enclosure constraints and that the panel cutout dimensions match the housing profile.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 306 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and spacing options. It is designed for general-purpose electronic applications requiring durable connections between a card edge and a header.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with EDAC part numbers sharing the same 3.96 mm pitch and 1.57 mm board thickness tolerance. Verify that substitute headers maintain the dual female cantilever contact type and identical panel mounting geometry.
