306-039-521-101

Overview

The EDAC Inc. 306-039-521-101 is a dual-edge female card edge connector designed for through-hole termination. It features 78 positions with a contact spacing of 0.156 inches (3.96mm). The connector accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57mm). Gold plating is applied to the contacts, and the insulator body is green. This component supports single centerline row configurations.

Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female configuration for secure board insertion
• Gold-plated contacts ensure reliable electrical performance
• Low-profile insulator body design
• Through-hole termination method

Applications

• Industrial control systems
• Telecommunications equipment
• Consumer electronics modules

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number matches the required 78-position count and 0.156-inch spacing. Confirm RoHS3 compliance status if environmental regulations apply. Ensure the PCB thickness requirement aligns with the 0.062-inch nominal specification before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a dual-edge female connector with 0.156-inch spacing is required. Consider the low-profile body height for space-constrained designs. Verify compatibility with the target PCB thickness and mounting orientation requirements.

Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 306 series of edgeboard connectors. These connectors are engineered for high-reliability applications requiring robust mechanical retention and stable electrical connections in compact form factors.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other EDAC 306 series variants for similar spacing but different pin counts. Verify mechanical dimensions and termination style match before substituting.
