896-060-556-802

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC 896-060-556-802 is a standard card edge connector receptacle designed for high-temperature applications. It features 60 positions with a contact spacing of 3.175 mm (0.125 inches) and a row spacing of 6.35 mm (0.250 inches). The connector accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 1.57 mm (0.062 inches). It utilizes gold-plated contacts on dual edges and employs a black insulator body. The unit is configured as a female connector suitable for panel mount installation.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• High-reliability electronic assemblies

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm contact plating, insulation color, and mounting style match the design requirements. Confirm that the board thickness tolerance aligns with the 0.062-inch specification. Check regional availability as distribution may be limited in certain areas. Ensure compatibility with mating card edge specifications before finalizing procurement.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a 60-position dual-edge connector is required for high-temperature operation. The 3.175 mm pitch suits standard industrial board layouts. Consider the panel mount requirement and black insulator visibility needs. Verify that the 0.062-inch board thickness constraint fits the system design parameters.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 896 Series, which specializes in high-temperature card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and mounting styles tailored for rugged applications. The 896 line is distinct from lower-temperature series by its enhanced material properties and thermal ratings.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include parts with identical pin counts and pitch but different suffixes for variations in plating or mounting. Cross-series replacements require matching the 3.175 mm pitch and 0.062 inch board thickness constraints.
