ID PCB connector for me please?

markiemrboo · 2nd November 2006, 01:21 PM

I'm after a PCB mounting connector / terminal / pin / something that looks like this. I've seen it before, probably on pictures of amplifiers on here, but I don't know what it's called? I'm about to order my transformer, so I figured I would see if I can get these connectors from Farnell at the same time if I can

EDIT: would help if i attached my drawing..

Lucar Connectors?

That looks like it, except I need them in PCB pin form rather than.. wire crimp style. I'll hunt around for lucar connectors then, thanks!!

For anyone who's interested, these are actually called "spade" terminals, or "blade" terminals apparently

I found PCB mounting ones in the UK at RS (I think), but ordered from http://toby.co.uk/ (PCB hardware -> spade terminals)

The female connectors for these I managed to get from ebay.

This should hopefully mean that I can actually test out the gainclone while I am getting my case sorted out

I didn't want to test it till it was in a case before because I would have to unsolder connectors from the boards to put it in a case, shouldn't have to do that now!

Sure hope the sound quality is everything everyone has been ranting and raving about

I've spent too much money on this little project!
