AMC40DRMT

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The AMC40DRMT is a card edge connector manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions. It features 80 contacts arranged in two rows with a 0.100 inch (2.54mm) pitch. The connector accepts dual-edge cards with a thickness of 0.093 inches (2.36mm). It utilizes wire wrap terminals and includes locking features for secure board mounting. The housing is made of polyphenylene sulfide, and the contacts are gold-plated beryllium copper.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female connector design for robust signal transmission
• Wire wrap termination method ensures reliable electrical connections
• Integrated locking mechanism provides secure installation on the PCB
• Polyphenylene sulfide insulation offers high thermal stability

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring durable interconnects
• Telecommunications equipment with high-density signal paths
• Test and measurement instruments needing stable board connections
• Automotive electronics modules demanding reliability under vibration

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify that the target printed circuit board supports wire wrap termination techniques, as this specific model does not use solder pins or surface mount pads. Confirm that the card edge thickness matches the specified 0.093 inches to ensure proper contact engagement. Check for RoHS compliance requirements if operating in regulated regions, as this part is lead-free. Ensure the locking feature aligns with the mechanical constraints of the enclosure design.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-edge card interface with wire wrap termination is required. The 0.100 inch pitch suits applications needing moderate pin density without excessive board space consumption. Consider the beryllium copper material for superior spring properties compared to standard alloys. The polyphenylene sulfide housing allows for operation in higher temperature environments typical of industrial settings.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the AMC series of card edge connectors from Sullins Connector Solutions. The series is designed for general-purpose board-to-board or backplane applications. The AMC40DRMT specifically addresses needs for dual-edge connectivity with a focus on mechanical retention through its locking design. It represents a standard solution for legacy or specialized wiring architectures.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other Sullins models with identical pitch and termination style but different contact counts. Cross-brand replacements require matching the 0.100 inch pitch, dual-edge configuration, and wire wrap termination capability. Verify mechanical dimensions and locking mechanisms before substitution to ensure compatibility with existing tooling and enclosures.
