845-053-542-604

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 845-053-542-604 is a single-row card edge connector designed for vertical panel mounting. It features 53 positions with a 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) contact pitch, accommodating printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57 mm). The contacts are gold-plated copper alloy, rated for 3 A current, and utilize wire wrap termination. The housing is constructed from Diallyl Phthalate (DAP), supporting an operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.
