D-Sub Connector Insert Arragenments


There are a number of pages that deal with D Sub-miniature connectors on the engineering web site. The main two are Manufacturers of Commercial D-Sub Connectors, and Manufacturers of Military D-Sub Connectors. Military connectors meet the MIL-DTL-24308 specification.

A graphic of a D-Subminiature outline, and a table of D-Sub mechanical dimensions is provided to determine the different sizes available. Along with a new page providing Insert Arrangements for D-sub connectors.

9-pin D-Sub Insert Arrangements,
15-pin D-Sub Insert Arrangements, Size 22 Contacts.
15-pin D-Sub Insert Arrangements, Size 20 Contacts.
25-pin D-Sub Insert Arrangements,
26-pin D-Sub Insert Arrangements,
37-pin D-Sub Insert Arrangements,
44-pin D-Sub Insert Arrangements,
50-pin D-Sub Insert Arrangements,
62-pin D-Sub Insert Arrangements,
78-pin D-Sub Insert Arrangements,
104-pin D-Sub Insert Arrangements.

So the Insert Arrangements for D-subs gives the dimensions and locations of the individual pins, while the Dimensional outline for D-subs gives the case out-line. In addition, you can determine the pin location or pin numbering using the 'insert arrangement' pages.

Although in declining usage on PC's the three most common sizes used are the 9-pin [Serial Port], the 15-pin [Video Port], and the 25-pin [Parallel Port].

6/19/09 The section on connector insert arrangements isn't doing to bad, but hits are fairly low.

The page with the lowest visits covers pin assignments for the 62-pin connector, maybe it's just an odd size connector;

That page does not have a page rank yet either.
