846-022-540-104

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 846-022-540-104 is a standard card edge connector from the 846 High Temp series, designed for reliable signal transmission in demanding environments. This receptacle features 22 positions arranged in a single row with a 0.125-inch (3.18mm) contact spacing. The housing is constructed from green Diallyl Phthalate (DAP), providing thermal stability and mechanical durability. Contacts are made of copper alloy with gold plating to ensure low resistance and corrosion resistance. It supports a maximum operating temperature of +125°C and a minimum of -40°C, making it suitable for high-temperature applications requiring robust interconnect solutions.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• High-temperature rated construction using DAP insulator material for enhanced thermal performance
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts ensuring reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Single-row female configuration optimized for standard card edge board interfaces

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring high-temperature reliability
• Medical equipment interconnects
• Agricultural technology hardware

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix code against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm exact pin count, row configuration, and termination style. Ensure compatibility with target PCB thickness and mating card dimensions before procurement. Cross-reference part numbers with authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit components.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-row interface with 0.125-inch spacing is required for high-temperature operations up to 125°C. Consider the DAP housing material for superior thermal stability compared to standard thermoplastics. Verify that the gold-plated contacts meet the current carrying requirements of the application circuit.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to EDAC's 846 High Temperature Series, which specializes in durable connectors for harsh environments. The series offers various position counts and row configurations, all sharing common high-temp materials and gold contact standards.
