387-023-559-102

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 387-023-559-102 is a single-row card edge connector designed for through-hole mounting. It features 23 positions with a 0.156-inch (3.96 mm) pitch and accepts board thicknesses between 0.054 and 0.070 inches. The female contacts are made of copper alloy with a gold plating finish, housed in black thermoplastic polyester insulation. Operating within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C, this component utilizes cantilever contact types for reliable signal transmission.

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the official EDAC 387 Series Ordering Guide to ensure correct flange and termination specifications. Confirm RoHS3 compliance status prior to integration. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributor catalogs to validate current availability and standard packaging quantities. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprint designs.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a single-row interface with a 0.156-inch pitch is required for vertical board insertion. The 23-position count suits moderate-density applications. Verify that the target printed circuit board thickness falls within the specified 0.054 to 0.070-inch range. Consider the through-hole termination method for robust mechanical fixation during operation.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context
