| How to connect to a very, very challanging BlackBerry Q10 keyboard connector? |
| (1/5) > >> |
| JoeN:
I want to use this in a project. I am not 100% sure but this looks to me to be about 0.4mm and it is as tiny as it looks. I should have gotten a straighter on picture. Surprised this came out as well as it did, but I could have done better. I can't find the appropriate socket anywhere to purchase. Any ideas on what I should be trying to make a connection or where to get this socket? Would prefer a socket, I can make my own PCBs and I am very good at mounting small SMT parts under the microscope with a bit of hot air. Thanks in advance! |

Molex SlimStack 0.4? |

When I look at Molex's site and Mouser though the very weird thing is they carry 26 pin versions and 30 pin versions but not 28 which is what I count on this connector. http://www.molex.com/molex/products/family?key=slimstack_fine_pitch_smt_board_to_board_connectors&channel=products&chanName=family&pageTitle=Introduction http://www.mouser.com/search/refine.aspx?Ntk=P_MarCom&Ntt=130129646 (.35mm connectors that look exactly like this one) http://www.mouser.com/Search/Refine.aspx?Keyword=SlimStack (all SlimStack connectors) Why do you think that is? |

Looks like HIROSE DF40 to me. When drawing land pattern for it pay attention to extra edge pins. |

They look like really similar connectors. I thought posting here would be good because of all you industry guys who recognize these sorts of things. http://www.mouser.com/search/refine.aspx?Ntk=P_MarCom&Ntt=142026239 The very odd thing is still no 28 conductor version. Any idea what is up with that? Did Blackberry f*ck me here by using their corporate might to demand a non-standard conductor so this part would not be diverted into amateur projects? :-DD |
