EBA36DCST

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EBA36DCST is a dual-edge female card edge connector manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions. It features 72 positions arranged in two rows of 36 contacts each, with a 0.125-inch (3.18mm) pitch. Designed for through-hole mounting at a right angle, the connector utilizes phosphor bronze bellowed-type contacts with gold plating (10.0µin thickness). It supports non-specified dual-edge cards up to 0.062 inches thick and operates within a temperature range of -65°C to 125°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female configuration with bellowed contact style for reliable signal transmission
• Through-hole right-angle mounting with side-mounting flange openings
• Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts ensuring corrosion resistance
• Compatible with non-specified dual-edge PCBs

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust board-to-board connections
• Telecommunications equipment utilizing standard card edge interfaces
• Test and measurement instrumentation boards
• Consumer electronics with high-density interconnect needs

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation against official Sullins documentation to confirm terminal type and locking features. Ensure compatibility with target PCB stack-up and card thickness specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status if required by project regulations. Cross-reference lead times with authorized distributors as availability may vary. Validate that the selected variant matches the required mounting orientation and contact plating thickness for the intended application environment.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-edge female connector with 0.125-inch pitch is required for right-angle through-hole assembly. Consider the bellowed contact design for enhanced mating durability compared to standard types. Evaluate the operating temperature range and material composition against environmental stressors. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the specified body dimensions and mounting hole patterns. Compare alternative series if different contact counts or pitches are needed.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EBA series of card edge connectors from Sullins Connector Solutions. The series offers various configurations for dual-edge applications. The EBA36DCST specifically addresses high-pin-count requirements with its 72-position layout. It is designed for general-purpose electronic interconnections where reliability and standard form factors are prioritized.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include EBA36DCBS and EBA36DCWN from the same manufacturer. Verify identical pitch, pin count, and mounting characteristics before substitution. Ensure contact plating and material specifications match the original design requirements.
