GPIO Extender board connectors

Post by Phil G3TCU » Fri Mar 28, 2025 4:00 pm

I have assembled a V2 board (PCB V2.12) with the Molex KK254 right angle connectors listed in the V2-12 parts list and I have only recently ordered the associated straight receptacle housings and have found they won't go in. Have I got some wrong parts or is there a need to mount the right angle headers spaced off the board?

Thanks & 73, Phil G3TCU

Hi Phil,

Sorry for not spotting your post earlier.
The BOM has now been updated on the Wiki.
When originally published there was a severe shortage of many Molex connectors. I must have had the correct ones already in stock :oops:
