The de facto standard 8 inch FDD interface is based upon the Shugart Associates models SA800/801 [3] FDDs and models SA850/851 [4] FDDs. [5]: 171 The signal interface uses a 50-pin PCB edge connector which mates to a flat ribbon cable connector. Separate connectors are provided for both AC and DC power, as many 8 inch drives used AC spindle motors.
SCSI hard drives showing 80-pin SCA connector (top), and separate 68-pin and power connectors plus configuration jumpers (bottom) SCSI backplane with 80-pin SCA connectors. Hard Drives are mounted on proprietary hot-swappable caddies. Single Connector Attachment, or SCA, is a type of connection for the internal cabling of Parallel SCSI systems ...
The SAS is a new generation serial communication protocol for devices designed to allow for much higher speed data transfers and is compatible with SATA. SAS uses a mechanically identical data and power connector to standard 3.5-inch SATA1/SATA2 HDDs, and many server-oriented SAS RAID controllers are also capable of addressing SATA hard drives.
Where a circular connector is used, its center pin is used for the high (positive) Manchester bi-phase signal. Transmitters and receivers couple to the bus via isolation transformers, and stub connections branch off using a pair of isolation resistors and, optionally, a coupling transformer.
Today, few consumer-grade PC-compatible computers include COM ports, [3] though some of them do still include a COM header on the motherboard. [4] After the RS-232 COM port was removed from most consumer-grade computers, an external USB-to-UART serial adapter cable was used to compensate for the loss. A major supplier of these chips is FTDI.
M12 A-coded 5-pin connector: For each connector size, the A-coding is the inspecific pinout variant and the only variant defined in varying numbers of pins. Ethernet cable with an M12 X-coded connector in one end and a modular connector in the other.
the four-pin polarized Berg connectors used to connect 3½-inch floppy disk drive units to the power supply unit, usually referred to as simply a "floppy power connector", but often also referred to as LP4. This connector has a 2.50 mm (0.098 in) pitch (not 2.54 mm).
In 20/24-pin configurations, the Mini-Fit Jr. connector (Molex Mini-fit Jr. 39-28-1203, [7] former 5566-20A or 39-28-1243, [8] former 5566-24A) may be used on ATX motherboards as the main power connector. The same style of connector, in single or paired 4-, 6-, or 8-pin configurations, may be used for additional CPU power and graphics card ...
