Find that conector... (RS or Farnells)

chiark · 19 November 2008, 22:26

It's the bottom of a CSA Mega Midget Racer, and it fits into a 68000 socket.

Below the PCB it measures 12mm - 2mm in plastic, then 6mm round with 1mm or so diameter, dropping down to small diameter for 4mm. It's soldered onto the PCB so I guess there's a 2mm on top of the plastic too

Any help finding a part gratefully received. I need 2 lots of 4 in a row.

Many, many thanks!

You can buy strips of those which you cut to length. All you need is the pitch

chiark · 20 November 2008, 09:35

Pitch is 2.54mm - forgot to mention that.

Any idea what it's called Alex? I've searched for turned pin, brass, connector, header and get too many results. I do have standard headers in my parts bin, but that won't fit in the 68000 socket

(I know this is spoon feeding, but I'm stuck!)

I am pretty sure there turned pin, males my friend. hmmmm let me get my catalog out

I spent an hour on the website... Still no use. Any suggestions appreciated!

chiark,

try searching for 'collet'.

Perhaps I'm being thick, but that didn't help

It's that these pins look terribly similar to those:

Hello,

It is funny, I used this kind of connectors few days ago at work.
It is called header strip.
Here is a datasheet from Mill-Max:
http://www.mill-max.com/images/products/pdf/061m.pdf
Digikey has some in stock : 64-pin header strip, gold plated, expensive !
Here are the P/N:
342-10-164-00-591000
342-10-164-00-592000
342-10-164-00-593000
342-10-164-00-594000
In your case, one is enough (cut it in half).
They are a b**ch to align during soldering. My advice is that you insert the other end into a DIL socket while soldering.

Good luck fixing your board.

Regards,

Frederic
