EEM36DCAD-S189

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EEM36DCAD-S189 is a dual-edge female card edge connector manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions. It features 72 total positions arranged in two rows of 36, with a contact pitch of 0.156 inches (3.96 mm). The connector utilizes phosphor bronze contacts with a tin finish and loop bellows contact type. Designed for through-hole right-angle mounting, it accommodates a board thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57 mm). The insulator is made of polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), and the unit operates within a temperature range of -65°C to 125°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific suffix S189 corresponds to the required tin plating and blue insulator color as documented. Confirm the right-angle mounting orientation matches the target PCB layout requirements. Ensure the 0.156-inch pitch aligns with the connected card edge specifications. Check for RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the final assembly.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-edge female connector with a 0.156-inch pitch is required. The right-angle form factor is suitable for vertical stacking or space-constrained horizontal layouts. The tin-plated contacts offer cost-effective conductivity for general-purpose applications. Consider the PBT insulation material for its thermal stability within the specified operating range.
