Title: How identify JST connector type?
Post by: bitwelder on November 16, 2014, 08:34:57 am

Has anyone a page that helps to identify the various JST connector types?

I have a miniboard with a tiny 2-pin JST, and a cable coming from a different board with a different 2-pin JST connector (just a teeny tiny bigger), so I'd like to know what should I order to make a JST-male-x-to-JST-female-y adapter.
For the record, the cable is to provide power to a SSD.

EDIT: after some browsing on Digikey catalog I think it's about JST-PH (2.0 mm pin pitch) and JST-XH (2.5 mm pin pitch).

Use a caliper between the pins on the board and than you know.
