887-024-558-103

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 887-024-558-103 is a single-row female card edge connector designed for high-temperature applications. It features 24 positions with a contact spacing of 0.156 inches (3.96 mm) and a row spacing of 0.200 inches (5.08 mm). The connector accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57 mm). Contacts are gold-plated over nickel, while tails are tin-plated. The insulator body is constructed from Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS), rated UL 94V-0, providing a high profile height of 0.600 inches (15.24 mm). It supports panel mount installation with offset ears and offers a maximum operating temperature of +125°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• High-temperature PPS insulator body for thermal stability
• Gold-plated contacts ensuring reliable signal transmission
• Single-row configuration with standard 0.156-inch spacing
• Panel mount design with offset mounting ears

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring high thermal resistance
• Communication equipment interfaces
• Medical device internal connections
• Energy sector electronic assemblies

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific termination style and mounting ear configuration against the mechanical drawing before ordering. Confirm that the PCB thickness matches the 0.062-inch specification to ensure proper engagement. Check for any required anti-dedication keying or guide rails if used in multi-connector arrays. Ensure the application environment stays within the -40°C to +125°C operational range.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust, high-temperature card edge solution is needed. The 887 series distinguishes itself with PPS insulation compared to lower-temp alternatives. Consider the single-row layout and specific pin count of 24. Evaluate the offset ear mounting option against available panel space. Verify compatibility with mating card edge thicknesses to prevent mechanical stress during insertion.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 887 series, a line of high-temperature card edge connectors. The series is characterized by its use of Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) for superior heat resistance compared to standard materials. The 887 series offers various termination styles and mounting options, catering to diverse industrial and commercial requirements where thermal stability is critical.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include other 887 models with different pin counts or termination styles. Cross-series replacement requires verifying pitch, board thickness, and thermal ratings. Ensure any alternative maintains the PPS insulator material for equivalent high-temperature performance.
