Highly Flexible Adapter Interface Module, 0.1 inch to/from 2mm connectors

Note: After adding to cart please indicate in Order Notes whether you would like the edge connectors to be polarized or not, and whether you would like them to be vertical or right angled. Default will be polarized, right angled connectors.

If you require different connectors or want something special drop us an email and we will help. Just because we have 50-pin connectors, does not mean that we only solve for 50 pin connectors! Since we build to order or provide a kit we can supply a variety of header and connector solutions to fit your application, or you can order the kit and stuff it exactly how you wish. There are many applications for this adapter board and the photos just scratch the surface of possibilities. See photos for some possible examples. We have constantly been running into 0.1 inch header to 2mm connector translation and finally came up with this module.

Select the Spacer Board option with PC/104 Connectors and you've got yourself a PC/104 Spacer board as well if needed.

Overview:

• J1 is a 2 mm (0.079 inch) lead-pitch that will accept any connector/header up to 50 pins.
• J4 is a 2.54 mm ( 0.1 inch) lead-pitch that will accept any connector/header up to 50 pins.
• J2 and J3 are used as the flexible interface between the 2 mm and 2.54 mm connectors.
• Applying a jumper shunt across each pair of pins will make this a 1-to-1 adapter (i.e. pin 1 of J1 connects to pin 1 of J4).
• J2 will connect the odd pins together (i.e. Jumper shunt across J2.1 and J2.2 would connect J1.1 and J4.1 together).
• J3 will connect the even pins together (i.e. Jumper shunt across J3.1 and J3.2 would connect J1.2 and J4.2 together).
• Instead of jumper shunts, you can use jumper wires to connect any pin of J1 to any pin of J4.

Featured Capabilities:

• Ribbon cable to wire interface
• Signal breakout and probing
• Prototyping platform
• Optional PC/104 stackable pass-thru connectors allowing for a variety of PC/104 stacking schemes and uses 
• Cable conversion and pin remapping
• Cable loopback
• Serial breakout and loopback 
• Cable/connector translator from 0.1 inch to 2 mm connectors
• Signal remapping (example: IDE PATA from 0.1 inch to 2mm for 2.5 inch drives or 3.5 inch drive to (2.5 inch interface) or compact flash)

Detailed features

• Mechanical Mounting Options: PC/104 Stack or stand alone via four spacers.
• Prototyping Region: Flexible area for adding circuitry to your custom 1-up situations.  All Plated Through Holes (PTHs) are 40mil in size.
• Signal access: Additional signal access is available by plated through holes (PTHs) clearly labeled on the board near. These holes are sufficiently large to accept scope probes, wires or component leads for use within the prototyping region.
• Long-Term Product Availability. Apex Embedded Systems is committed to delivering long life cycle products.
• Designed for operation in harsh environments. All components and materials used in our products are designed to operate in the extended and/or mil-spec temperature range, under high shock and vibration.
• Operating Temperature: -40°C to 85°C.
• Designed and assembled in Wisconsin by Apex Embedded Systems. We will do whatever we can to assist you in designing in our products.
