857-016-525-107

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 857-016-525-107 is a high-temperature standard card edge connector receptacle featuring 16 positions with a 3.96 mm pitch. Designed for vertical panel mount installation, it utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts and solder pin termination. The housing is constructed from black polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) to withstand operating temperatures ranging from -40°C to +125°C. It supports a board thickness of 1.57 mm and includes flush mount flanges with top opening and M3 threaded inserts.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• High-temperature insulation material ensures reliability in demanding thermal environments
• Gold-plated contacts provide durable conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Panel mount design with integrated flanges for secure mechanical fixation

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust connectivity
• Communication equipment operating in elevated temperature zones
• Medical devices needing reliable signal transmission

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm exact flange configuration and termination style. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB thickness of 1.57 mm before procurement. Confirm that the vertical mounting orientation aligns with the system enclosure design constraints.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when high-temperature performance is critical for the application environment. The 16-position count and 3.96 mm pitch define the interface density. Consider the vertical panel mount requirement and the need for gold-plated contacts for long-term reliability in industrial or medical settings.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 857 series of high-temperature card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and row configurations. The 857 series is characterized by its use of PPS insulators and suitability for harsh operating conditions compared to standard commercial grade connectors.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include parts with different position counts such as 857-008-527-107 or 857-032-525-107. Verify that any replacement maintains the identical 3.96 mm pitch and vertical mounting profile.
