Serial Connector for Mini Circuits ZX76-31R5-SP-1+
« on: October 08, 2018, 10:47:56 am »
Anyone know if the serial connector for the Mini-Circuits ZX76-31R5-SP-1+ digital step attenuator is proprietary or can be bought elsewhere?  Have the attenuator but no lead.

Few years ago I was also searching for this connector. Unfortunately I could not find it. I ended buying directly from Mini Circuits.

The pics aren't great in the datasheet but it looks very similar to an old mobile phone charger/data connector, I'm sure I have some in my office, if I find one I'll dig it out and take pictures.

How many contacts does it have?

*edit* I've seen some of these on mobile phone charge/data cables:

I've definitely had them with the retainer clips as well.

10 contacts.  The socket itself is 10mm across.

Thanks - I'll have to dig around my many 'rubbish' boxes.

This will probably not help the OP anymore, but maybe someone else finding this topic through Google (like me).
The connector is Hirose ST series (https://www.hirose.com/product/series/ST?lang=en), the exact part no. of the plug should be Hirose ST40X-10S-CV(30).

Thanks switchabl.   I bought a lead with connector back in 2018 but have held off getting any more ZX76-31R5-SP-1+ due to the lead cost.  This may bring me back to using them again.  Thanks
