725-088-541-201

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 725-088-541-201 is a dual-row card edge connector receptacle designed for through-hole mounting. It features 88 positions with a 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) contact pitch and a 0.250-inch (6.35 mm) row spacing. The contacts are gold-plated copper alloy with a 30 µin thickness, utilizing cantilever spring terminals for wire wrap termination. The housing is black thermoplastic polyester, rated for operation between -40°C and +105°C. It supports board thicknesses of 0.054 to 0.070 inches.

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity by checking manufacturer markings against official EDAC documentation. Confirm that the part number matches the specific series requirements for your application. Ensure storage conditions maintain integrity before installation. Review RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to your manufacturing process. Validate pinout configurations against schematic diagrams prior to PCB layout finalization.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this connector when high pin counts are required within standard 0.100-inch spacing constraints. The dual-row arrangement maximizes connectivity in limited vertical space. Consider the wire wrap termination method for prototyping or low-volume production needs. Evaluate thermal stability requirements against the specified operating temperature range. Assess mechanical retention needs for the cantilever contact type during insertion cycles.
