Can anyone tell me if there is any way to connect a 2.0mm pitch female IDC header to a 2.7 (.10in) pitch female IDC header using ribbon cable?
I have a PC motherboard with a 20-pin, 2.7mm pitch male header that I need to connect to a remote handheld device that has a 20-pin, 2.00mm pitch male header. I would like to use ribbon cable but realise it may not be possible unless there's a solution I have not heard of. It's a long shot but new solutions are coming along all the time so I thought I'd ask the experts out there.
All I can see right now is two options:-
1. use dedicated 2.00mm pitch ribbon and IDC for the handheld device and a 2.7mm pitch discrete pin strip for the other end ie separating the leads and crimping them individually.
2. the exact converse of 1.
Thanks in advance
