Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm pin count, plating, and termination style. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB thickness range of 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the latest product change notifications or supplier documentation before finalizing procurement.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-row, vertical connection is required for edge-board applications. The 2.54 mm pitch suits standard digital signal interfaces. Verify that the host system operates within the specified -40°C to +105°C temperature range and requires a 3 A current rating per contact.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 745 Series Ultra-Mate family, characterized by press-fit termination and high-density configurations. The series offers various position counts and row configurations, providing standardized connectivity solutions for rugged electronic environments requiring durable mechanical connections.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other EDAC 745 series variants such as 745-064-520-201 for different position counts. Ensure identical pitch, row count, and termination method when substituting to maintain mechanical and electrical compatibility.
