It looks like through-hole, but what is the pin pattern: in-line or staggered?

Have you checked Hirose ? I looked but didn�t find anything similar. Cheers

No, there really are connectors that are designed to handle stripped ribbon cable or other wire terminations vice a "flat on flex" terminal. This http://www.molex.com/pdm_docs/sd/872801200_sd.pdf datasheet from Molex shows how they expect the ribbon cable to be prepared. Quite different from a FFC/FPC receptacle. Molex does have one that does not require holes for side support posts and that does have a compression latch, which could be a functional substitute for the OP's requirement. http://www.molex.com/pdm_docs/sd/521471210_sd.pdf -- Rich Webb Norfolk, VA

Roger that. Sometimes Usenet does work out to be more than a herd of performing elephants with diarrhea... ;-) -- Rich Webb Norfolk, VA |
