896-052-556-812

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 896-052-556-812 is a standard card edge connector receptacle from the 896 series, designed for high-temperature applications. It features a dual-row configuration with 52 positions and a contact spacing of 3.175 mm (0.125 inch). The row spacing measures 6.35 mm (0.250 inch), accommodating printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 1.57 mm. Constructed with copper alloy contacts plated in gold, it ensures reliable conductivity. The housing utilizes Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) material, supporting an operating temperature range from -40°C to +125°C.
