AYM40DRMT-S288

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

AYM40DRMT-S288 is a dual-edge female card edge connector manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions. It features 80 positions with a 0.156-inch (3.96mm) pitch and two rows of 40 contacts each. The connector utilizes beryllium copper contacts with a gold plating thickness of 30.0µin (0.76µm). Designed for board edge, straddle mount installation, it accommodates a card thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57mm). The insulating material is polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), supporting an operating temperature range of -65°C to 150°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female configuration with ring bellows contact type for reliable signal transmission.
• Straddle mount installation design compatible with standard board edge slots.
• Gold-plated beryllium copper contacts ensure corrosion resistance and low contact resistance.
• High-temperature PPS insulation supports operation in demanding thermal environments.

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system backplanes
• Telecommunications equipment interconnects
• Test and measurement instrument modules

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'S288' against official manufacturer documentation to confirm exact plating thickness and material specifications. Ensure that the required 0.156-inch pitch matches the target PCB edge layout. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current datasheets before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a wider 0.156-inch pitch is required for high-density dual-edge applications. Consider the beryllium copper alloy for superior spring retention compared to phosphor bronze alternatives. Verify that the straddle mount footprint aligns with available chassis mounting holes and clearance requirements.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the AYM series of dual-edge connectors from Sullins Connector Solutions. The series offers various pin counts and pitch options for different density requirements. The AYM40 variant specifically addresses mid-range density needs with its 80-position configuration.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

ECC40DRSH-S288 offers similar functionality but uses phosphor bronze contacts and PBT insulation with a lower temperature rating. ACC40DRSS-S288 provides comparable performance but differs in contact material and flange characteristics. Verify mechanical compatibility before substitution.
