392-082-542-203

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 392-082-542-203 is a dual-edge card edge connector from the 392 series, featuring 82 positions with a 0.100-inch (2.54mm) contact spacing. It utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts with a 10.0µin thickness for reliable signal transmission. The unit employs a black thermoplastic polyester insulator and supports wire wrap termination. Designed for vertical panel mounting, it includes flush mount floating bobbin flanges with a 0.116-inch diameter. The component operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge configuration accommodates double-sided circuit board connections
• Floating bobbin flange design ensures secure alignment during insertion
• Gold-plated contacts provide corrosion resistance and stable conductivity
• Wire wrap termination method facilitates robust PCB attachment

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system backplanes
• Telecommunications equipment interconnects
• Medical device internal module connections
• Test and measurement instrument cards

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number matches the required dual-edge specification and position count. Confirm that the wire wrap termination style aligns with the manufacturing process capabilities. Ensure the operating temperature range meets the environmental requirements of the final assembly. Check for any specific flange dimension constraints regarding the mounting panel thickness.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density connection with 82 positions is required in a single row format. The dual-edge design is suitable for applications needing increased pin count per unit length compared to single-edge variants. Consider the wire wrap termination if through-hole soldering is not preferred or feasible. Evaluate the floating bobbin feature for assemblies requiring precise mechanical alignment tolerance.
