Overview of Series 6022/6024 Card Edge Connectors

The Series 6022/6024 Card Edge Connectors datasheet provides in-depth information about connectors designed for use with 1/16″ printed circuit (PC) cards. The connectors are equipped with extended card guides and ribbon-type contacts boasting a bifurcated nose, designed to ensure consistent electrical connection and mechanical stability.

Features

Key features of these connectors include:

Multiple Termination Options: Available terminations include both solder (with a choice of wire hole and PC tab) or solderless wrap contacts for cost efficiency and ease of installation.
Current Rating: The connectors are capable of supporting a current rating of up to 5 amperes.
Contact Resistance: They offer a low contact resistance of a maximum of 6 milliohms.
Contact Material & Plating: Contacts are made of phosphor bronze with plating that includes 50-100 microinches of nickel and at least 10 microinches of gold overall.

Specifications

Detailed specifications cover aspects such as:

Insertion/Withdrawal Force: 2 to 16 ounces per contact pair, rendering it suitable for applications requiring normal force.
Insulator Material: The insulator is made from polyester rated UL 94VO, indicating a certification for safety regarding flammability.
Insulation Resistance: A high insulation resistance of a minimum of 5000 megohms is specified, showcasing the connectors’ effectiveness in preventing electrical leakage.
Dielectric Strength: The connectors can withstand up to 1800 VAC between adjacent contacts, demonstrating their robustness within electrical applications.

Product Variations

The datasheet also details the different product variations and ordering codes, including:

Single or dual read-out options available with varying contact codes and configurations tailored to specific applications or mounting requirements.
A choice of plating overall is given, with more details available upon consultation with the factory.
Specific variation codes denote the configuration of single read-out contacts, either on one side only, staggered, or in dual read-out formats.

Ordering Information

Customers are guided through creating an ordering code by selecting the series, number of contacts, contact code, and variation code, to specify the particular connector configuration needed for their application. For other platings and thicknesses or special configurations, the manufacturer encourages direct consultation to accommodate custom requirements.
