Twisted Pear Connectors

marc brown · 23rd March 2009, 12:49 AM

I purchased a used Darwin and need to source some connectors. I wrote the guys at Twisted Pear but haven't heard back.

Does anyone know who makes these three-pin connectors?

Thanks!

Hi

i think they used to have a parts list for this device but i see that they don't have one presently.

you might get a quicker response if you post directly in one of their threads.

they are usually very responsive.

my guess is that they might be molex but that is just a guess.

Molex probably does, but they've got so many in their catalogue it's tough to find out what they are, exactly. Might help to measure the pin thickness and spacing with a vernier caliper if you end up not getting a response.

They look like 0.1" Molex KK connectors to me, if you're after the plug housing you should be able to use the part below from mouser and you'll need some crimp pins to go with them as well.

Thanks Andrew.

I'm having a devil of a time matching these things. I'll take a look at the KK's.

The pitch on the pins is around 0.1" or 2.5mm.
