845-062-500-408

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 845-062-500-408 is a standard card edge connector from the 845 series, designed for high-temperature applications. It features a single row of 62 positions with a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) contact spacing. The connector utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts and a green Diallyl Phthalate (DAP) insulator. It supports a PCB thickness range of 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm (0.054" to 0.070") and employs solder pin termination. Rated for 3 A current, it operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and offers an insulation resistance of 5 GOhms.

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to ensure compatibility with required PCB thickness and termination style. Confirm that the selected variant matches the intended panel mounting requirements and environmental operating conditions before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust, high-temperature card edge solution is required for single-edge boards. Ensure the host PCB accommodates the specified 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm thickness range. Verify that the 62-position count aligns with circuit design needs and that the solder pin termination method fits the assembly process.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 845 Series, a line of high-temperature card edge connectors. The series is characterized by its use of DAP insulators and gold contacts, making it suitable for demanding environments where standard connectors might fail due to heat or corrosion.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult the official EDAC cross-reference documentation for verified substitute part numbers. Do not assume generic equivalents are compatible without verifying electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, and termination styles.
