EDAC, Inc. Edgeboard Connectors 345-082-523-212

The Card Edge Connector, part number 70AJ7072, features a dual side configuration with 82 positions and a 0.100,Äù (2.54mm) pitch. It is designed to accommodate a printed circuit board thickness of 0.062,Äù (1.57mm) and offers various contact termination options including P.C. tail and wire wrap. The connector is constructed from UL 94V-0 thermoplastic polyester for the insulator and copper alloy for the contacts, which are plated with gold on the mating area and tin on the tails, with nickel underplating. This connector has a current rating of 3 amps and a maximum contact resistance of 10 milliohms. It can withstand a dielectric voltage of 1200 V AC rms and has a minimum insulation resistance of 5000 megaohms. The operating temperature range is from -40°C to +105°C. The connector supports multiple mounting options, including flush or offset lugs, and is RoHS compliant and UL certified. Engineers should consider this connector for applications requiring reliable electrical connections in compact spaces, particularly where dual side access is beneficial.
