Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official EDAC documentation to confirm mechanical attributes such as flange presence or termination style. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current datasheets. Check for recent Product Change Notifications (PCN) to ensure material consistency. Validate that the requested quantity aligns with manufacturer factory pack sizes.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a 17-position vertical interface is required. Ensure the target PCB design supports the specified 1.57 mm thickness constraint. Verify that the application environment remains within the operational temperature range. Confirm that the single-row layout meets the system's pin count requirements without needing multi-row alternatives.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 357 series, which provides a comprehensive range of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and termination options tailored for robust industrial and specialized applications. Components in this family are engineered for high reliability and consistent performance across diverse electronic assemblies.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other EDAC 357 series variants for different position counts. Verify compatibility with existing mating cards before substitution. Ensure any alternative maintains the same 3.96 mm pitch and vertical orientation.
