Edge card socket accepts two PCB cards
Samtec
Edge card socket
Samtec has introduced a high-speed edge card socket that accepts two 0.062in (1.6mm) thick PCB cards.
This 0.8mm (0.0315in) pitch system, in a right-angled configuration, allows 'dual-stacked' cards at an industry-standard 7mm (0.276in) spacing between cards.
The 0.8mm (0.0315in) pitch right-angle Edge Rate Dual Stack Edge Card Socket (DSEC Series) is available with 30, 40 or 50 edge rate contacts per row.
This rugged contact system is optimised for superior signal integrity and impedance control, high cycles, reduced broadside coupling and low insertion/withdrawal force.
Lead-free solder charge terminations for easy board processing are standard with tin-lead solder charges available as an alternative option.
Additional card spacings and an elevated single-card system are also available.
In addition to this right-angle dual-stack system, Samtec offers Edge Rate contact edge card sockets in surface mount and edge mount designs for parallel, perpendicular, and planar board mating.
Right-angle, edge-mount and vertical-stamped contact sockets in 0.635mm (0.025in) and 1mm (0.0394in) pitches are also available.
