9 pin D plug

[timmmmayyy!]

Anyone knows of anywhere that sells 9 pin D vertical sockets/plugs.
I`m sure they exist - if not WHY NOT?????

It will save me from needing to use a diferent plug.

Thanks for reading!

Have you looked at connector manufacturer's websites? Have you looked

at Digi-Key, Mouser and Newark?

Because it is probably easier to use a riser board, for the very limited

number of applications needing this!...

Thanks for reading!
You don't say how may are needed. Most of the plug manufacturers will do

custom runs. I had a 9way socket made this way for an application a few
years ago (Toby in the UK did it), and even for the fairly small run
involved, it was only a couple of pence more than an off the shelf item.
In my case it was the limited length of rear panel that forced the choice.
The alternative was a simple flying lead, or a riser, but these were more
expensive than having the plug made. At the time I found no suppliers
offering these 'off the shelf'.

Agreed Tim... Obviously the OP doesn't know how to use Google or he
would have found any number of responses.

Clue:- search for d-sub pcb mount straight

Here's one manufacturer's product range
http://www.hirose-connectors.com/products/SD_5.htm?_SearchHRS%3DSD*

I'll leave it to OP to find others and where to get them.

Here's a better question- do any have PCB mounting solderable prongs?

I don't think the poster is asking for D mount straight (as common as
muck), but is asking for right angle D-mount, which sit vertical to the
board surface, raher than horizontal. I have used these (as I said in an
earlier post, we had them custom made). As for why they are not done
normally, think how you are going to bring out the pins, for five pins one
above the other, and bring them down to the board without shorting...

Thats it, i am looking for right angle conections,
I have googled plenty, this is a last resort!

Bloody hell, you did say "vertical" and that means "straight" where I
come from. Right angled means 90 degrees to the plane of the pcb and
that is "horizontal" not "straight". Why didn't you say right angled
in the first place? They are even more common than the one I linked
to.

Instead of putting "straight" in the search criteria put "right
angled" or "r/a".
You are missing the point.

The two common types, are 'right angle', with the two mounting screws
ending up on a line parallel to the board surface, and 'vertical', with
the plug facing up from the board. He wants 'right angle', but with the
two mounting screws ending up on a line running vertically from the board.
The commonest way to get this effect is to use a 'riser' PCB, with the
vertical plugs mounted on this.

How about a panel mount DB9 connector -> IDC ribbon cable. Then you
just need 0.100" header on the board.

Not one of which is the product being looked for.

Look at the ASCII drawing I posted, and then show a site with one.

When you take all the junk out of that, you're left with:
http://www.google.com/search?&q=PCB-mount+d-sub

If you use hyphens to make phrases instead of quotation marks,
A Google Groups search will actually find it again
without having to look for (e.g.) 22PCB.

Well it seems that Roger is the ONLY one apart from the OP who knew
exactly what the connector was supposed to look like. I don't know how
he worked it out but nevertheless.....

Now, as for the OP's statement that he "is sure there is a market for
this item" is concerned, I can safely say that it has never been
sufficient demand (and nowadays even less so) in all my 40 odd years
of experience with these connectors for any manufacturer to set up the
specialised plant to produce it. The pin lead-outs, terminal footprint
and the physical mounting arrangement would be horrendous to design
and manufacture, even for a relatively small number of pins such as
the D-9. When the the D connector family also includes 15, 25, 37 and
50 pin connectors this type of arrangement would be extremely
difficult to produce economically.

In the small number of cases where a connector arrangement of this
type has been required then the vertical sub-board with right-angled
connector has been the norm, as suggested by Roger.

It doesn't seem too difficult or costly for D-9; four wire leads on one

by a pierced flat insulator positioned to lie just above the plane of
the PC board when the connector is mounted.

This would probably be the optimum solution for more than 9 contacts.

I once did something much like this with a 3-digit, 7-segment LED display.
It was the "number of calls" display on an answering machine, and I
couldn't see the display from the office door, so I stood it up. So,
three DIP headers, three 14-pin sockets, and 84 solder joints later I had
a standup display.

It was a PITA, but looked pretty cool.

Do you think if i was looking for that item I would have driven down to
Maplin (uk electronics company) and bought it?

Yeah, sorry. I misunderstood the question.

Sorry.

I think the main part of the problem with this thread has been in working

out a name to call this style of plug!. I think I'd probably suggest a
'perpendicular body, right-angle DB9', which covers if being connected at
right angles to the board, but having the plug body running perpendicular,
instead of parallel to the board face.
In general, I think the reason it is not done (which was asked at the
beginning), is the difficulty in bringing all the connectors to a sensible
board footprint, and possibly the fact that with the height involved,
seperate support of the connector is going to be required, which makes the
flying lead solution (or a vertical 'riser' PCB), the commonest route in
the industrial applications needing this.
It does however seem odd, that there isn't a version anywhere (especially
given some of the versions available with multiple horizontal
plugs/sockets built into one casing).
