9/10 Pin Motherboard Connector

Feb 19, 2011 5 Replies

Can anyone direct me to where I can pick up the 9/10 pin connectors that are used on cables that connect motherboards to USB ports?



I need to find the housings as well as the pins, along with the recommended crimper.



The guys at the closest computer store had no idea what I was referring to even though I shown them a picture. And unless you know the name or part number of what you are looking for the Digi-Key and Mouser search is close to useless.



Thanks.

Do you mean the stackable 0.1" housings?

If so, the pins are 16-02-0096 or 97. The manufacturer's crimper is $$$; this works with these pins (and others of similar configuration).

Yes. 0.1".

Here is a pic of what I'm looking for:

Yep. The ones that I linked to above are not identical but they'll work just fine. You would need to stack two back-to-back, as they're single row connectors.

I "stock" a few of the single row on hand since they can be used either alone or adjacent, for pseudo-dual row. However, if you'd prefer the dual row member of the family, look at the 70450-series, like

which uses receptacle pins 16-02-0103
