Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to ensure correct termination style, contact plating, and mounting orientation. Confirm that the target PCB thickness falls within the accepted range of 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm. Check RoHS compliance status and environmental certifications required by the final assembly specification before procurement.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row card edge interface with 3.96 mm pitch is required for panel-mounted applications. Ensure the mating card edge board thickness aligns with the connector's acceptance criteria. Consider the right-angle orientation and thermoplastic material properties relative to the operational environment and mechanical stress requirements.
