Floppy 14-pin DIN Info

Post by DominoTree »

Does anyone have any part numbers, datasheets, mechanical drawings, or anything like that, for any of the 14-pin DIN connectors used for our floppy drives? Plugs, sockets, or anything?

I'm looking to get some dimensions and spacing for the pins and plug itself to build some new adapters, and I'd much rather look at documents than measure everything with calipers.

My drawings are from "the nature", the dimensions are not super precise, especially the angles.

Thanks for them either way! I've printed out the EAGLE footprint and it seems to line up well, I'm about to order some boards to test with - hopefully it's "close enough"

I've printed some of these plugs, and they fit perfectly ok.
