Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official EDAC documentation to ensure correct plating thickness and mating force specifications. Confirm that the panel mount orientation matches the system requirements before procurement. Cross-reference the RoHS status with the latest manufacturer declaration to ensure compliance with regional environmental regulations.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a low-profile, single-row connection is required for PCBs with a standard 1.57 mm thickness. Ensure the mating card edge width aligns with the connector's guide dimensions. Consider the 3 A current rating for power distribution needs within the circuit design constraints.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 342 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and mounting styles. The 342 series is widely used in industrial and commercial electronics for reliable signal and power transmission between boards and backplanes.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other EDAC 342 series variants with identical pitch and position count but different mounting angles or housing colors. Verify mechanical footprint compatibility before replacing.
