Pin Header and Sockets: Part-Numbers

seppel

Hello,

does someone know the manufacturers and the part numbers for the sockets and headers? I read that they may be from samtec, but I did not find sockets with a 2.54mm pitch and 2.2mm profile(height)

Could someone tell me where to get theme.

Thanks a lot.

Best Regards, Seppel

@seppel as far as I am aware they are custom sized.
if you are talking about the internal bus connector then

Hello,

I highly doubt that, all M5Stack likes to do is:

1. Buy overpriced connectors
2. Limit the “openness” and control the marked of modules

I love the idea and package of the M5Stack, but the connectors are just stupid, require high forces, difficult to find, … .

Maybe I will use other very common low-profile types, do it in FreeCAD, and KiCAD so we can get rid of that nonsense connectors for 3rd Party and custom modules.

Hello,

Does anyone find a solution to this?
I am ordering a circuit at PCBway but they can't order components at M5stack, and I do not find male header anywhere.

It looks like it is a SAMTEC connector (low profile), see picture.

But lead style A is 3.05mm (pin height), mesuring the one I have is 2.5mm.
Not sure 3mm will fit the femelle (too long)?

Thanks

I ask M5stack support, here is their answer:

"The 30-Pin connector we are using is a customized one. The pin height with 3mm is no problem to be compatible."
