Nobody sells female header sockets any more ?

Post by exxos »

I've been looking through the usual suppliers to try nor do some connectors into JLC parts.. However I am unable to find what I thought was a relatively simple part..

2.54mm female header socket. 2x32.

EG:

https://jlcpcb.com/partdetail/Wcon-2111 ... T4/C721780

Unless I'm completely missing something, nobody has these in stock anywhere ?!

The only option is to just source them from aliexpress and solder them all myself :roll:

I recently came across this firm. I don't know anything about them but they have some old stuff that might be useful to you and others at some point. A very old fashioned website. Unicorn Electronics.

I got some from either RS (I think) a couple of weeks ago for the PiStorm, Right angled too.

Forget that, it was from Pimoroni.

I think it's the search term you're using. They are called "pcb receptacles": https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/?pn=1&se ... _of_Rows=2
