Sinphaltimus Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 (edited) Does anyone have a source for the exact type of edge connector for the side expansion port.Without looming up any docs to confirm, I think it's 44 pin x2 positions?There are so many it's hard to tell what will and will not work.http://m.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m4084.l1313&_nkw=44x22p+edge+connector What ne need to know it everything. What are all the selections I should make on a page like this?http://www.mouser.com/Connectors/Card-Edge-Connectors/Standard-Card-Edge-Connectors/_/N-axj7d Edited November 15, 2016 by Sinphaltimus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 I'll try and pull up the data for you tonight. The really important part is how you plan to connect it to the board. If it is to sit to the side of a flat board, you need a saddle-style mount or a right angle mount. if it is to be plugged in, the straight mount is good. The pin spacing is .100. The hardest ones to get are saddle mount or wire wrap types. Sullins still makes all of them though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinphaltimus Posted November 15, 2016 Author Share Posted November 15, 2016 Saddle or right angle for sure. Thanks for your help. I'm going to build my first prototype adaptor. I need parts. Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying not to be a pain in the butt. should I just search whtech myself for speech synth docs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jedimatt42 Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 If your anxiety is over the edge connectors, I cannot find the ones I bought for sale anymore. I got them off ebay/china in a box of 100. But the spec is as Ksarul said 0.100 pitch, and you already had the pin count ( 22 x 2 ) ( for a total of 44 pins ) Best speech synth docs I've seen so far are: http://www.unige.ch/medecine/nouspikel/ti99/speech.htm -M@ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinphaltimus Posted November 16, 2016 Author Share Posted November 16, 2016 I think I'm going to desolder the one off a speech synth. My anxiety is mostly the inability to locate the right parts myself. I don't want to purchase the wrong thing. Again. So any edge connector that is 44 pin x 2 position with 0.100 would be the correct one no matter what? I mean, with my luck lately I'll buy some and they'll have a notch in the middle or something I would never have thought to ask about.

+Ksarul Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Here's the right part for these. Note that the minimum order is 10 of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinphaltimus Posted November 16, 2016 Author Share Posted November 16, 2016 oooo $67.OK, I am definitely going to desolder one of a speech synth. I wanted to put the speech synth internal on another console anyway (my frankenbeast modded) so bonus there. I'm going to try and make thomething like this... http://atariage.com/forums/topic/258892-side-cart-backplane/for myself and I'll need to place an order for this as well (3 minimum) unless someone has 2 they want to sell me?<I can't find the link now - basically I need Matt's 42 pin to edge adaptor he made for adding expansion to the side port 32k expansion. I plan to utilize the exact same adaptor for the adaptor I want to make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
