846-012-526-202

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC 846-012-526-202 is a standard card edge connector receptacle from the High Temp Series. It features 12 positions arranged in a dual row configuration with a 3.175 mm (0.125 inch) contact spacing. Designed for panel mount installation, this right-angle connector utilizes solder pin termination. The contacts are gold-plated copper alloy, while the insulator is constructed from green Diallyl Phthalate (DAP). It supports a maximum operating temperature of +125°C and a minimum of -40°C, with a current rating of 3 A.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• High temperature capability utilizing Diallyl Phthalate (DAP) insulation material
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts for reliable signal transmission
• Right-angle panel mount design for space-efficient integration

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring high thermal stability
• Military and aerospace electronic assemblies
• Automotive electronics under hood applications

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer part number against official EDAC documentation to ensure compatibility with your board design. Confirm that the required panel cutout dimensions align with the connector's physical specifications. Check for RoHS compliance details if environmental regulations apply to your project. Ensure the soldering process parameters are suitable for the specified temperature ratings.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row card edge connector with right-angle orientation is required. The 12-position count and 3.175 mm pitch must match the PCB edge card layout. Consider the +125°C operating limit if the application involves significant heat generation. Verify that the panel mount style fits the mechanical constraints of the enclosure design.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This connector belongs to the EDAC 846 series, which specializes in high-temperature card edge solutions. The series is characterized by robust DAP insulators and gold-plated contacts, making it suitable for demanding environments. The 846-012-526-202 variant specifically addresses needs for dual-row connectivity with a fixed 12-position footprint.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult official EDAC cross-reference lists for verified substitutes. Generic equivalents may not match the specific DAP material properties or precise dimensional tolerances required for high-temperature reliability.
