Edgeboard Connectors

Single Readout, Dip Solder, Eyelet and Wire Wrap™ Termination

FEATURES

• 0.156" [3.96mm] C-C.

• Modified tuning fork contacts have chamfered lead-in to

reduce wear on printed circuit board contacts without

sacrificing contact pressure and wiping action.

• Accepts PC board thickness of 0.054" to 0.070" [1.37mm

to 1.78mm].

• Polarization on or between contact position in all sizes.

Between contact polarization permits polarizing without loss

of a contact position.

• Polarizing key is reinforced nylon, may be inserted by hand,

requires no adhesive.

• Protected entry, provided by recessed leading edge of

contact, permits the card slot to straighten and align the

board before electrical contact is made. Prevents damage

to contacts which might be caused by warped or out of

tolerance boards.

• Optional terminal configurations, including eyelet (Type A),

dip-solder (Types B, C, D, R), Wire Wrap™ (Types E, F).

• Connectors with Type A, B, C, D or R contacts are

recognized under the Component Program of

Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.

Listed under

File 65524, Project 77CH3889.

ORDERING INFORMATION

Required only when polarizing

key(s) are to be factory

installed.

Polarization key replaces

contact. When polarizing key(s)

replaces contact(s), indicate by

adding suffix

“9” to contact position(s)

desired. Example: A9, J9

means keys replace terminals A

and J.

Required only when polarizing key(s) are to

be factory installed.

Polarization key positions: Between contact

polarization key(s) are located to the right of

the contact position(s) desired.

Example: A, J means keys between A and

B, and J and K.
